This article was produced in partnership with Thinktank

Thinktank has unveiled two innovative short-term loan products and increased borrowing limits for existing Residential, Commercial and SMSF loan types, underscoring its commitment to the mortgage broker channel and responding to evolving market needs.

Innovative financial solutions for dynamic needs

Two new short-term loan products, Private Loan and Residual Stock Loan, are designed to provide brokers with the flexibility to support their clients' varying business needs. Key features of the products include flexible terms from 3 months up to 3 years, a loan limit of $7m and flexible servicing parameters including no minimum Interest Coverage Ratio (ICR) requirement, no Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI), and no title insurance.

  • Private Loan: Offers two servicing and income verification options, can be secured against residential, commercial, or specialised properties. Suitable for business or property investment, business equipment purchase, working capital, line of credit, or refinance and debt consolidation.
  • Residual Stock Loan: Also offers two servicing and income verification options, tailored for property developers wishing to borrow against a recently completed development of 5 to 35 units with less than 50% retained by the developer.

Increased loan limits for enhanced financial flexibility

In addition to these new offerings, Thinktank has increased the borrowing limits for their Residential, Commercial and SMSF Commercial loans. Borrowers can now access up to $5m for Residential and Residential SMSF and $8m for Commercial and Commercial SMSF, providing them with even greater financial flexibility and opportunities to support growth.

The new products and limit increases reinforce Thinktank’s ongoing dedication to pushing boundaries in the third-party channel.

“At Thinktank we work exclusively with mortgage brokers, so we're committed to continuing to innovate with new products and offerings to help them deliver the best journey and outcomes for their clients” said Belinda Wright, Head of Partnerships and Distribution.

“Many brokers want to be able to offer a range of solutions to their clients, as this typically leads to stronger and deeper relationships, new advocates, and potential new revenue streams,” she said.

Responding to feedback is a key part of the process.

“We take pride in listening to broker feedback and providing straightforward solutions to the requests and suggestions we receive. This approach has driven numerous recent changes to our product offerings, and we remain dedicated to adapting to the evolving market to meet the diverse needs of brokers and borrowers,” said Wright.

Thinktank's team of dedicated commercial and residential Relationship Managers is available to support brokers and their clients at every step, from initial workshop through to settlement.

The introduction of these new loan products and the increase in borrowing limits demonstrate Thinktank's ongoing commitment to innovation and responsiveness in the financial services sector.

By expanding their product range and enhancing existing offerings, Thinktank aims to provide brokers with the tools they need to better serve their clients in a fast-moving landscape.
