Whether you’re purchasing your own home; investment property or refinancing your current home loan, there are many loan products and structures to choose from. We do all the legwork for you and research our panel of lenders to meet your needs at a price that suits you.
The interest rate varies during the term of the loan in line with the official cash rate set by the Reserve Bank of Australia. It is the most common type of home loan and provides flexibility and features such as an offset account; redraw facility and no limits on additional repayments.
The interest rate is locked for a period of 1 to 5 years. This provides you with the peace of mind knowing that your repayments won’t change which allows you to budget easily. If interest rates rise, you are not affected. However, you cannot take advantage of rate decreases and are usually only able to repay a small additional amount each year.
This allows you to repay the interest portion of your loan only for a term of between 1 to 5 years. You are not required to make principle repayments during this time. This is a popular choice if you are a property investor or if you’d like to keep your repayments low.
Provides you with access to the equity in your home or investment property up to a pre-approved limit. The funds are available to use as cash which can be transferred to different accounts or withdrawn. The interest rate is usually variable.

This assists you when you are looking at borrowing more than 80% of the purchase price but don’t want to pay for lenders mortgage insurance. Your parents or other family members can be your guarantor and use the equity in their property to provide security for a portion of your loan. This facility means that they do not give you any money towards your deposit, but it allows you to get into the property market sooner.
Assists if your credit history isn’t good or you have been unemployed for some time and if you want to borrow more that 80% of the property’s value. These loans normally attract higher interest rates and fees.
Assists you in investing in property via your Self-Managed Super. You can used borrowed monies to purchase a residential property. You must seek independent financial and legal advice before committing to a SMSF investment. These loans are not available for owner occupied use.
A transaction or savings account linked to your home loan or investment loan. The balance in the account is “offset” against your home loan balance and you are only charged interest on the difference between the two.
