A home loan is likely to be the most significant personal financial commitment you’ll ever make, so it makes sense to use the experts.
With so many mortgage alternatives on the market from banks, building societies and other non-bank lenders, it’s a challenge to find the product that’s ideal for you.
Mortgage brokers offer their services at no cost, earning a commission paid by the lender that you ultimately choose to use. A strict code of conduct demands impartiality, so they provide a range of choices that best suit your financial circumstances.
And a mortgage broker can help you find your first home loan, or look at options to refinance your existing loan if you’re considering taking the next step on the property ladder, or looking at renovations or investing.
If you’ve never used a mortgage broker, here’s an overview on what we provide:
