This page has been developed to assist Suncorp customers and their representatives in releasing security held against home/personal line of credit facilities (line of credit facilities include - Asset Lines, Professional Asset Lines and Overdrafts).
If you getting near the end of your loan, selling your home, refinancing your home or closing an overdraft, you'll need to complete the following steps so we can complete a security release.
Currently a Security Release Authority Form is required if a customer is going to pay out a loan that requires a security to be released.
Select the form below that best suits your circumstances:
- Selling your Home use the Sold Authority
- Refinancing your Home use the Refinance Authority
- Reached the end of your term use the Payout Release Authority*
- Closing down an Overdraft or Personal Loan - use the Payout Release Authority*
*The Payout Release form is to be used only when the loans balance has been reduced to zero (without selling the property or re-financing or for personal loans secured over real property).
Please take care when completing these forms, as they are a legal document. Only correctly completed forms will be accepted
This document is interactive and will require basic details relating to the release. These details will be printed onto the Release form. Once printed, complete the remainder of the form, then sign and post or fax forms to Suncorp Releases (details below).
Why these forms are required?
These forms need to be signed by all parties including guarantors authorising Suncorp to release a security over a property(s). Obtaining an authority signed by all parties lets us know that they are aware of the transaction. The Bank is unable to release a security until the authority has been correctly completed.
