Blacktown, NSW
Commercial property loan in Blacktown
Small industrial units and strata warehouses around Arndell Park, Huntingwood and Prospect are among the more accessible owner-occupier purchases in Sydney, and buying one removes the rent increases that have squeezed Western Sydney industrial tenants. Owner-occupied facilities are assessed on the trading business rather than market rent. Expect a 20–30% deposit and allow time for the commercial valuation and legal work.
Business finance in Blacktown
Blacktown is one of the largest local government areas in Australia by population and a major centre of light industry, logistics and trades in Western Sydney. Its economy combines the warehouse and distribution estates around Eastern Creek and Arndell Park, extensive residential construction through Marsden Park and The Ponds, and a large base of small trade, transport and service businesses serving the north-west growth corridor.
How we work with Blacktown businesses
Blacktown is twenty minutes from our office at Level 14, 3 Parramatta Square, and Anthony, Stefan and Kris regularly meet clients there in person — at a workshop in Arndell Park, a yard in Marsden Park or a site in the north-west.

Key terms
What is a commercial property loan?
A commercial property loan is a mortgage over non-residential property such as offices, warehouses, retail or industrial units. It can be full-doc, low-doc or lease-doc depending on how servicing is assessed.
Commercial property loan questions
How much deposit do I need for a commercial property purchase?
Commercial lending is usually written to a lower loan-to-value ratio than residential, so expect to contribute more. Owner-occupied purchases commonly sit around 65% to 80% LVR depending on the property type and the strength of the business, meaning a deposit of roughly 20% to 35% plus costs. Specialised premises attract tighter LVRs than standard offices, warehouses or retail. Using equity in an existing property can reduce or replace the cash deposit.
How long does a commercial property settlement usually take?
Plan for six to twelve weeks from application to settlement in most cases. The steps that take time are the full financial assessment, a formal valuation of the property, legal documentation and any conditions the lender imposes before funding. Purchases with tight contract dates need the finance clause negotiated realistically at the outset. Refinances of an existing loan can be quicker where the property and the borrower are straightforward.
