WHY THE LENDING INSTITUTE

See the Reason behind Each Recommendation

A rate table cannot tell you how a lender will treat business income, rental income, existing debts or a tight settlement date. We do that work before we put an option in front of you.
Mortgage and finance broking
More than 7 years of experience
01

More than 40 lenders, not one bank

Our panel spans major banks, smaller banks, non-bank lenders and specialist funders. The shortlist depends on the loan and your verified information.
02

The full cost is shown

We compare rates with application, valuation, package, discharge and break costs, plus the effect of the loan term.
03

The file is checked before submission

Income evidence, liabilities, deposit or equity, security and timing are reviewed before the lender sees the application.
04

A broker owns the follow-up

We deal with lender questions, valuations and approval conditions, and keep you updated through settlement.
FROM FIRST CALL TO SETTLEMENT

Four Steps, with the Next Action Made Clear

You know what we are waiting on, who has the next action, and what could change the timing. The 48-hour submission target depends on receiving a complete and accurate file. Approval remains subject to lender assessment and criteria.

WHO WE WORK WITH

Borrowing Situations that Need More Than A Rate Search

The documents and lender rules change with the way you earn, own assets, and plan to use the funds.

Check whether switching is worth the cost.

We compare your current loan with staying put, repricing, and moving to another lender. The calculation includes the remaining term, discharge or break costs, setup fees and the total interest outcome.

We check
  • Current rate, balance and remaining term
  • Equity and usable borrowing capacity
  • Fixed-rate or package exit costs
  • The effect of debt consolidation on total interest

    Calculator results are estimates only. They are not an offer of credit, pre-approval, or a recommendation. Actual borrowing capacity, repayments and costs depend on verified information, lender criteria, interest rates, fees and loan terms.

    BEFORE WE CHOOSE A LENDER

    Three Checks Before Your Application Reaches A Lender

    The same borrower can receive a different answer from two lenders because the policy, evidence, and cost calculation are different.
    01

    Can the income be verified?

    Payslips are only one form of evidence. We check tax returns, financial accounts, BAS, bank statements, rental income and other earnings against the lender’s rules.
    02

    Is the lender reading the file the same way?

    Policy differs on overtime, bonuses, business income, existing debt, rental income, trusts and property type.
    03

    Does the loan still stack up after fees?

    A lower rate can be outweighed by break costs, application fees, package fees, valuation costs or a longer loan term.

    COMMON QUESTIONS

    What borrowers ask before the paperwork starts

    If your question depends on your income, property, or timing, speak with a broker. A short conversation can be more useful than another generic calculator.
    Ask Your Broker →
    Fees depend on the work. Lenders usually pay mortgage brokers a commission for settled loans. A client fee may apply to some work, including certain commercial matters or valuation costs. If a fee applies, you will receive the amount and terms in writing before you agree to proceed.
    Our panel has around 40 lenders across major banks, smaller banks, non-bank lenders and specialist funders. It does not include every Australian lender. We will explain which lenders were considered for your application and why.
    Our working target is to submit within 48 hours of receiving all requested information. The lender controls assessment, valuation and approval timing. Raise any urgent date on the first call.
    Yes. We arrange home, investment, commercial and asset finance for sole traders, company and trust borrowers. The evidence depends on the lender and may include tax returns, financial accounts, BAS, bank statements and information from your accountant.
    Possibly. We compare the new repayment with fees, the new loan term and total interest. Moving short-term debt into a home loan can reduce the monthly repayment but increase the interest paid over time. Your home may also secure the consolidated debt.
    No. The application can be handled remotely by phone, video and electronic documents.
    A broker will call to understand the loan purpose, timing and rough numbers. If the request is worth examining, we send a fact-find and document list. Nothing is lodged with a lender until you see the recommendation and tell us to proceed.
