WHY FINE LOANS?
Zero confusion & total convenience
No cost to you… Yes, $0
Minimum effort – Guided by an expert
GOT ANY QUESTIONS?
Our trusted and expert mortgage brokers have a wealth of knowledge to share. We can help you understand the different types of mortgages available, compare rates from multiple lenders, and find the right mortgage for your needs. Best of all, in simple language so you won’t have to remember LVR, LMI, BC & all the other jargons that comes with mortgage process.
Not a kidney, promise. Classic target is 20% (no LMI), but plenty of buyers get in with 5–10% – you may just pay Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI) or use a government guarantee if eligible. We’ll map what’s realistic for you and keep a buffer so you can still afford pizza.
What on earth is LMI – should I avoid it?
LMI isn’t a villain; it’s a ticket to board early when you don’t have a full 20%. It protects the lender, not you, but if it gets you into a good home sooner (and you keep a cash buffer), it can make sense. We’ll compare “wait & save” vs “buy now with LMI” like grown-ups who also like spreadsheets.
Fixed, variable, or split – help!
Fixed: certainty now, less flexibility. Variable: flexible, can fall (or rise) with rates. Split: the Goldilocks option. We’ll model repayments and stress-test them so your budget survives rate wiggles and the occasional splurge at Bunnings.
How much can I borrow?
Banks run your income, expenses, and debts through a stress test (higher ‘buffered’ interest rate). We’ll do a reality check first, then get a pre-approval so you know your budget before you start falling in love with sunrooms.
What costs are there besides the deposit?
The “grown-up” list: stamp duty (varies by state), legal/conveyancing, building & pest, lender fees, mortgage registration, moving, and possibly LMI. We’ll give you a neat cost sheet so nothing jumps out from behind the couch.
What’s pre-approval – does it mean I’m guaranteed?
Pre-approval = a conditional thumbs-up based on your info at the time. It’s not a pinky-promise; the property still has to value up and your situation can’t change wildly. Still, it’s essential for shopping with confidence (and for agents to take you seriously).
Can Mum & Dad help as guarantors?
Yep—often called a family guarantee/pledge. It can reduce or remove LMI and help you buy with a smaller cash deposit. It’s powerful, but it’s serious business for your parents, so we’ll explain risk, limits, and exit plans so Christmas lunch stays friendly.
What’s an offset account and why do people rave about it?
An offset is a bank account linked to your home loan. Every dollar sitting there reduces the interest you pay. It’s flexible, tidy for records, and great for building a safety buffer. (Redraw can be fine too, but offset is the neat freak of the two.)
Should I buy a fixer-upper or move-in-ready?
Depends on your time, budget, and nerves. Reno properties can be great if you’ve got cash buffers and a plan; turnkey is calmer for first-timers. We’ll also check how the lender treats the place—some “projects” aren’t as bank-friendly as the listing suggests.
Are there first-home buyer concessions or schemes?
yes – things like stamp duty concessions, grants, or guarantee schemes (eligibility applies and rules change). We’ll check what’s available for your situation and state so you don’t miss free help. (We love free help.)
