How can I find out if I’m eligible for a home loan?
The fastest way is to talk to us. We’ll answer your questions and won’t waste your time. All you need to do is request a free consultation and one of our friendly team will be in touch.
How long does it take to get a home loan approved?
To save time, make sure you have all the documentation we need (see below) ready as it will help speed up the process. Although every home loan is different, on average it takes 4–5 days from the first phone call to approval with our team.
What documentation do I need to apply for a home loan?
To speed up the process of applying for a home loan, be prepared because lenders request proof including:
– Identification (100 points)
– Employment and income, including either payslips or invoices, and tax returns for up to 18 months
– Savings, including your bank statements for the past 3–6 months
– Current debts, including billing statements
– Assets, for example a rates notice for another property
Why should I talk to you instead of my bank?
Because unlike a bank, we have access to at least 20 lenders. That means we find you the right loan, which starts with the right loan structure to suit you. We’ll show you what your bank can do plus compare it to the market, giving you a bigger range to choose from.
How much deposit will I need?
Most lenders will want you to have a deposit of 5–10% of the purchase price of the property. But the bigger deposit the better, because some lenders may require Lenders Mortgage Insurance (that is, unless you’re eligible for the First Home Loan Deposit Scheme – see below).
How does the First Home Owners Grant work?
This scheme is a one-off payment that varies by state or territory (from $7,000 up to $26,000). The Queensland Office of State Revenue can confirm these amounts – click here to find out more. We can also educate you about the current grants and how they can assist with your first property purchase.
How does the First Home Loan Deposit Scheme work?
In this scheme, the government acts as the mortgage insurer, guaranteeing home loans for eligible first home buyers with a minimum of 5% deposit. This can save first home buyers anywhere from $10,000 to $30,000 in Lenders Mortgage Insurance fees. To find out if you’re eligible, click here. We’re happy to answer your questions on how the scheme works with your property purchase.
What are guarantor home loans?
In this type of loan, a family member such as a parent uses their property as security for your mortgage. It’s a great way to get into the property market if you don’t have enough savings for a deposit. A guarantor can choose how much they guarantee, so they are only responsible for that amount of the loan. It’s important to note however that if you can’t pay back the loan, the guarantor is liable.
