A non-bank private lender is a finance provider that operates independently of traditional banks. At Leap Funds, we lend directly using private capital, which allows us to make decisions faster, structure loans more flexibly, and focus on real-world outcomes, without the red tape that often comes with major institutions.
Private lenders typically offer faster approvals, more tailored structures, and greater flexibility than banks. We assess deals based on their commercial viability and security, not just rigid criteria or tick-box lending policies.
No, we are not a broker. We lend our own capital and manage the full process in-house. That means no intermediaries, no delays waiting on bank committees, and no unnecessary layers of approval.
We work with developers, investors, and commercial borrowers who need timely, structured funding to act on opportunities or progress existing projects.

We assess quickly and move fast. With full documentation, we can issue indicative terms in days, and settle funding shortly thereafter.
