The aggregator said the appointment was designed to provide brokers with a broader range of commercial lending options as interest in the sector continues to grow.
With an established presence in the residential mortgage market, MA Money’s inclusion on the Loan Market Group (LMG) Commercial panel will allow brokers to access both residential and commercial lending solutions through the one lender.
Commercial applications will also be available through ApplyOnline, providing a consistent process for brokers already familiar with the lender’s residential offering.
MA Money’s commercial products cover a range of property types including retail, office, light industrial, and warehouse assets. The lender also offers flexible documentation options, loan terms of up to 30 years, and SMSF lending up to 80 per cent LVR.
The addition of MA Money forms part of LMG Commercial’s ongoing expansion of its lender panel as brokers continue to increase their focus on commercial finance opportunities.
As uncertain financial conditions persist, brokers have been eying commercial lending as an opportunity to develop deeper client relationships.
Sam Allam, manager of commercial lender partnerships at LMG, said the appointment reflected growing broker interest in commercial finance.
“Our brokers are looking for more ways to support their clients, particularly as commercial lending becomes a bigger part of the conversation. MA Money’s commercial offering is a strong fit for the panel. It comes with flexible solutions, solid service, and the added benefit of a seamless experience for brokers who are already working with MA Money on the residential side,” Allam said.
Craig Stuart, head of commercial at MA Money, said commercial lending represented a significant growth opportunity for brokers looking to diversify their offering.
“Commercial lending is one of the most exciting growth areas for brokers right now, and we’re excited to bring these solutions to the LMG broker network. My goal is to make it simpler for brokers and their clients, while providing the same consistency, support and personal service that MA Money is known for on the residential side,” Stuart said.
“Brokers are looking for trusted partners to help them diversify and grow, and that’s exactly what we want our commercial division to deliver.”
