What we see in Paradise Point
Northern broadwater village with a small-town feel and premium canal frontage. Lifestyle-relocator owner-occupier buyers and a steady downsizer flow.
Lender shortlist for Paradise Point
Paradise Point is a premium broadwater village where canal and waterfront frontage drives the top end, so on our panel of 60+ lenders valuation strength on waterfront stock matters. The majors value canal homes cleanly and lead on relocator and downsizer files with bridging; second-tier lenders compete once the loan settles lower. All commentary is indicative and subject to policy at submission.
Who actually borrows here
Typical Paradise Point borrower profiles.
Lifestyle relocator to the broadwater
Sydney or Melbourne household buying a freestanding canal or waterfront home for the village lifestyle. With equity from a prior sale the new loan often sits at 55-65% LVR; a major bank is usually cleanest when the southern settlement lands after the Queensland contract date.
Canal-frontage downsizer
Local or interstate downsizer releasing equity and buying a low-maintenance waterfront home with a pontoon. The new loan often sits at 45-60% LVR; the work is cash-out timing and offset, and valuation on canal-frontage stock is the key.
Premium owner-occupier upgrader
Coast family moving up into a waterfront home. Bridging through a major bank keeps the timing clean; the file commonly lands at 60-70% LVR once the prior property sells, with offset and package pricing the main planning points.

Common questions about developer finance in Paradise Point
Do you fund developments in Paradise Point?
Yes. We map the Paradise Point project size, presales, security, and exit path against lenders that fund comparable projects, then build the funding sequence before terms are requested. Senior debt for residential and small-mixed-use builds, with tranche releases against quantity surveyor reports.
Minimum project size?
Typically $1.5M+ TDC for senior debt; we have private lender relationships for smaller projects.
What pre-sales do we need?
Bank lenders generally require 50–80% pre-sales coverage on residual debt. Private and specialist non-banks are more flexible for the right sponsor.
