\"\"What exactly can a mortgage broker do for you? Well, we don\u2019t mean to toot our own horn, but we can make your home loan journey a whole lot easier, letting you focus on the fun part: planning for your new home!<\/strong><\/p>\n

The words \u201chome loan application process\u201d can strike fear in the hearts of many.<\/p>\n

Trawling through different loan products is a time drain. The bureaucratic tape can be a headache. And let\u2019s not forget banks scrutinising your finances.<\/p>\n

But it doesn\u2019t have to be a drag.<\/p>\n

The majority of home loan seekers have now cracked the code: turning to mortgage brokers to help them land a loan.<\/p>\n

In fact, between July and September 2023, mortgage brokers wrote 71.5% of all new residential home loans in Australia,\u00a0according to the MFAA<\/a>.\u2063
\n\u2063
\nThat\u2019s the second-highest mortgage broker market share the industry has ever recorded.\u2063
\n\u2063
\nLet\u2019s find out why so many Australians have jumped on the broker bandwagon.<\/p>\n

1. We do the legwork for you<\/h3>\n

Let\u2019s face it, life gets busy. You\u2019ve probably got a million things on your plate.<\/p>\n

Carving out time to deep dive into home loan products across lenders can be tough. And often overwhelming.<\/p>\n

Mortgage brokers can take that tedious task off your hands \u2013 we can assess your situation and find home loan options to suit you and your goals.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ll even lodge paperwork and apply on your behalf, then chase things up to ensure everything goes as smoothly as possible.<\/p>\n

And fret not: all brokers are bound by a best interests duty.<\/p>\n

That means we\u2019ll always put your best interests first \u2013 not ours nor the bank\u2019s!<\/p>\n

2. We could help boost your chances of success<\/h3>\n

When looking around for a loan, having a knowledgeable professional on your side could be a game-changer.<\/p>\n

We can explain the whole home buying and loan process, which is particularly helpful if you\u2019re a first-home buyer or if it\u2019s been a while since you\u2019ve applied for a mortgage.<\/p>\n

We know the application process inside and out and can prime you to have your paperwork and finances ready to roll the moment the perfect property comes along.<\/p>\n

We have a wide range of lenders within our network \u2013 potentially providing you with access to a variety of home loan options across different banks and lenders.<\/p>\n

Whether your financial situation is complex or straightforward, we can use our panel of lenders to help you find a suitable loan. We can also let you know which lenders have a history of approving applications similar to yours.<\/p>\n

This potentially cuts down on countless hours trawling through lender websites for the right type of home loan. It may also lower your risk of rejection, which can negatively impact your credit score.<\/p>\n

3. You\u2019ll get continued support<\/h3>\n

Once you\u2019ve been approved for a home loan, the party doesn\u2019t stop there.<\/p>\n

We can continue to support you by regularly reviewing your rate with your bank on your behalf.<\/p>\n

That way you can avoid the \u201cloyalty tax\u201d \u2013 where new customers tend to get the lower rates.<\/p>\n

You can contact us any time with any questions you may have. And when you\u2019re ready to refinance, unlock equity in your home, or anything else finance-related, we\u2019re here to help.<\/p>\n

Get in touch today<\/h3>\n

Are you ready to make the home loan process a whole lot easier?<\/p>\n

Get in touch today to get the ball rolling. We\u2019ll take care of finding your home loan so you can focus on planning for your new home.<\/p>\n
