What Is Private Credit Investment?
Private credit refers to non-bank lending, where funds are raised from wholesale investors and loaned directly to borrowers—typically property developers. This asset class delivers consistent income and is often secured by mortgages over real estate.
Unlike volatile equity markets, private credit offers predictable returns and real asset backing, making it an attractive addition to diversified income portfolios.
Mortgage Investments: Fixed Income with Real Security
At MFEG, we provide wholesale investors with access to carefully structured mortgage investments. These include:
- Senior debt (first mortgage): Offers priority repayment and lower risk.
- Mezzanine debt (second-ranking): Delivers higher returns with calculated risk.
- Residual stock loans: Finance for completed, unsold property stock.
Each loan is underpinned by registered property security, ensuring clear risk frameworks and alignment with investor expectations.
Investment in Debt: A Strategic Alternative
Our investment in debt options offer a defined return profile, making them ideal for income-focused investors. Benefits include:
- Regular distributions (monthly or quarterly)
- Defined terms and maturity
- Low correlation to equity and interest rate volatility
- Tax-efficient income structures
We vet every opportunity to ensure a strong loan-to-value ratio (LVR), credible borrower track record, and viable project exit strategy.

What is Mezzanine Finance?
What's the difference between Preferred Equity and Mezzanine Debt Finance?
“We are pleased to work closely with MFEG and have done so for some time. One of our most recent developments comprising 66 apartments in Box Hill was a particularly successful project thanks to Cameron and the team obtaining maximum funding through a combination of 1st Mortgage and 2nd mortgage facilities. The finance structure here enabled us to release equity to use elsewhere which was critical for the cash flow of our business. Cameron Perry and the team have a diverse network of lenders and a thorough knowledge of the workings of property development which enables them to cater the right structure of funding for the projects’ success.”
Melbourne Finance & Equity Group has successfully achieved multiple financing transactions for our group in the last 8 years. Cameron and his team are very helpful and professional with their dealings. They have delivered results on what they have promised and have never let us down. We are greatly happy with their service and professionalism. Wishing Cameron and his team all the best’.
