Funding Solutions

Finance to Finish Your Renovation Before You Sell

When the work's nearly done, and it's the last bit of funding standing in the way

The renovation's close to finished, or already is, and what's left is the cost to get it fully ready for market. Flexy lends against the equity you already hold in the property to cover that shortfall, secured behind your existing bank mortgage, so the sale doesn't wait on the last stretch of work.

Up to $150,000

 How Flexy helps

We lend against the equity in the property you already hold as a company or trust, without disturbing your existing bank mortgage. Because the renovation is well underway or complete, the remaining cost to finish is usually well defined, and that's what we assess the loan against.

Your exit is usually the clearest part of the application: the sale you're preparing the property for.

Frequently asked questions

Can I get funding to finish a renovation I've already started?

Yes. Flexy funds the remaining cost to complete a renovation, or reach Code Compliance, rather than funding a renovation from the start.

Does the bank need to know about this loan?

No, Flexy does not need to notify or seek the bank's permission to proceed. Some mortgages carry conditions on further borrowing against the same property, so it's worth checking the loan documents.

How is this loan repaid?

Usually from the sale of the property once it's on the market, though it could also be repaid through rental or business income you receive. The specific repayment plan is confirmed as part of the application.

What happens if the sale takes longer than expected?

Talk to us before the term ends, not after. If the timeline shifts, we'd rather work through the options early than after a payment's missed.

What if my bank has already funded part of the renovation?

That's the usual situation. Flexy's loan sits behind your existing bank mortgage and covers what's left to complete the work, without needing to renegotiate what the bank has already funded.
