What are the benefits of Lease Rental Discounting?

Lease Rental Discounting (LRD) is a financial product where property owners use their leased property's rental income as collateral to secure a loan. Financial institutions typically provide this type of loan to meet funding needs without selling the asset. Below are some of the benefits of LRD:

  • Property owners can monetise and generate funds from the future rental income of their leased property without having to sell the actual asset itself. This effectively unlocks a portion of the property's value.
  • LRD loans usually offer competitive and attractive interest rates to applicants. This is because the loans are secured by the underlying rental income generated by the property, which acts as collateral.
  • These types of loans have longer repayment periods, which can be extended over many years. This longer repayment timeline allows applicants to service the loan more comfortably.
  • The loan repayment is tied directly to the ongoing rental income from the property's existing tenants. This provides applicants with a reliable and stable cash flow to make timely repayments.
  • Depending on the property and rental agreements involved, loan providers can provide very high loan amounts by discounting the value of the future rental income stream, unlocking a large portion of funds.
  • Applicants get flexibility in how they utilise the funds received from the LRD loan for business, debt consolidation, personal finance needs, etc. There are generally no restrictions on usage.
