Private Construction and Development Finance in Sydney

Sydney is Gravity Capital's home market. We fund residential, commercial and mixed-use projects from $5 million to $100 million across greater Sydney and New South Wales.

Gravity Capital is based in Sydney and lends across the metropolitan area and wider NSW. Construction loans are available up to 75% of TDC for qualifying sponsors, with none to low presales considered, alongside first mortgages, mezzanine finance, preferred equity and bridging finance.

What we look for

Sydney values have softened in 2026, so we test feasibilities against current sales evidence rather than peak pricing. We look for experienced sponsors, an approved development, a credible builder and an exit that holds up in a downside case.
