Common questions

Frequently asked questions

How much deposit do I need?

Most lenders require a minimum 5–10% deposit. With less than 20%, you'll typically pay Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI). We can help you explore low-deposit options and first home buyer schemes that may reduce or waive LMI.

What is pre-approval and do I need it?

Pre-approval is conditional approval from a lender confirming how much they're willing to lend you. It's not mandatory, but it gives you a clear budget, makes you a more credible buyer, and speeds up the formal approval once you find a property.

How long does the home loan process take?

Pre-approval typically takes 2–5 business days. Once you've found a property and signed a contract, formal approval and settlement usually takes 3–6 weeks depending on the lender and your circumstances.

Are there grants available for first home buyers?

Yes. In NSW, eligible first home buyers may access the First Home Owner Grant, stamp duty concessions, and the First Home Guarantee scheme (5% deposit with no LMI). We'll identify every grant and concession you're entitled to.

How much does your service cost?

Nothing. Our service is completely free to you. We're paid a commission by the lender when your loan settles — this doesn't affect your rate or the advice we give you.
