Commercial and business finance in Melbourne
This category covers brokers who arrange funding for businesses rather than owner-occupier home loans: commercial property purchases, business acquisition loans, equipment and asset finance, trade and debtor finance, construction and development funding, and working capital lines. We've listed 72 brokers across Melbourne who work in this space, ranging from small operators focused on a niche (say, medical practice finance or trucking equipment) through to firms that handle everything from a $200,000 fit-out loan to a multi-million dollar development facility.
The right broker for this kind of work does more than compare interest rates. They need to understand how a lender will read your business financials, what security position you're offering, and how to structure a deal so it doesn't tie up cash flow you'll need later. A broker who only deals in residential lending will often struggle here, because commercial lending is assessed on servicing capacity, asset type, and lease terms rather than a standard mortgage checklist.
Before choosing one, look at how long they've operated in commercial finance specifically, which lenders they have panel access to (bank and non-bank), and whether they've handled deals similar in size and structure to yours. Ask how they get paid and whether that's disclosed upfront.
Our ranked guide to Melbourne's best commercial finance brokers scores every business on the same factors: experience with comparable deals, lender panel breadth, responsiveness, and verified client feedback. The full scoring approach is explained on our methodology page.
