Funding showcase
Zagga has worked with developers large and small. Projects which we have funded to date range from
simple residential projects to multi-million-dollar commercial and industrial developments.
Every approved loan transaction that we make available as an investment
opportunity is presented with a detailed Information Memorandum.
Rose Bay, NSW
Luxury boutique apartments | $34M | 65% LVR
This opportunity was for the construction of 4 luxury boutique residential apartments where each full-floor unit boasts expansive views of the Sydney Harbour Bridge, basement parking, ensuite bathrooms, and walk-in wardrobes.
Based on the Sponsors’ recent experience across other projects and, combined wth their intricate knowledge of the market, they identified the potential to significantly increase the Project’s underlying profit margin by selling closer to, or on, completion of the Project, rather than selling off the plan which is a major bank requirement.
As such, the Sponsors, who had been long-term major bank clients, chose to secure their first facility in the non-bank sector with Zagga, despite receiving funding offers from major banks.
Melbourne, VIC
Refurbishment of commercial office | $28M | 44.18% LVR
The provision of construction funding was for a major refurbishment, including the construction of 2 additional floors of light weight steel structure, for an existing commercial office building in Flinders Lane, Melbourne.
The Developer acquired the heritage listed property in 2021, under a value-add strategy to improve the under-utilised building, increase building NLA, attract premium tenants and increase rent/sqm.
The Developer had delivered upgrades to multiple commercial office buildings throughout both Melbourne and Sydney CBDs, leveraging past successes and relationships within its portfolio to drive tenant interest.
Dee Why, NSW
Luxury residential apartments | $16M | 43.31% LVR
The provision of funds to a highly experienced developer for the construction of a 4-storey residential development comprising of 16 luxury residential apartments.
The property stretched over 3 adjacent lots of land, enjoying 22 metres of frontage to the prominent Pacific Parade in Dee Why within convenient walking distance to beaches, transport, supermarkets, shops, local cafes and restaurants.
This transaction would typically be considered a ‘bank deal’, however the borrower opted to proceed with Zagga for the construction facility as we could accommodate a lower presales requirement.
Sans Souci, NSW
High density residential | $34M | 60.95% LVR
Refinance of major bank land-loan with provision of construction facility for the funding of 38 residential apartments and four commercial spaces for experienced counterparty.
Major Bank wanted a higher presale covenant upon commencement, at 75% coverage, and we were at 25% coverage. This allowed the Borrower to commence faster and suited the nature of marketing luxury projects with a preference to sell later in the project as opposed to off the plan.

Bondi Beach, NSW
Future mixed-use development site | $11M | 65% LVR
This loan opportunity was for the acquisition of an existing mixed-use site overlooking Bondi Beach for highly-experienced counterparties as they ran DA approval process for an improved mixed-use site. Interest Coverage Ratio from cash on deposit was less than the required 1.3:1 due to rate rises, hence the loan from Zagga involving capitalised interest became their favoured option.

This investment opportunity was for provision of funds for subdivision of 18 residential lots with 2 residual lots on a cost to complete basis within the relatively new suburb of Box Hill, currently undergoing significant development as part of the NSW Government’s North-West Priority Growth Area.

Silverdale, NSW
Redevelopment of shopping centre | $36M | 51.30% LVR
Redevelopment of a pre-existing local shopping centre, with locked in preleases including an ASX listed anchor tenant in place upon completion. Major Bank provided stumbling blocks around the appointed builder, requesting a Tier 1-2 builder. Zagga’s own due diligence on the appointed Tier 3 builder, and their subcontractors/consultants, confirmed the private builder showed necessary experience to complete a project of this nature and size.
