Application

A mortgage broker will help you prepare all the correct information and documents required in order to maximise your chances of loan approval with minimum difficulty. As part of your assessment, the amount you’re allowed to borrow will be calculated. Your broker will present you with available loan options and together you can choose the most suitable option for you. Your application will then be submitted to the lender.

Pre- Approval & Settlement‍

After your application has been submitted, you’ll be informed if you’ve received a conditional approval, also known as a pre-approval. This means that you have met most of the lenders requirements for a home loan.

When you have chosen your property and the lender has everything they need, they will provide you with a formal approval and send over your loan contract. Loan funds can then be advanced and made available to you to secure your property.

Your mortgage broker will contact you after your loan has been set up to make sure that you understand the loan’s terms and conditions and how to make the repayments correctly. If you require any additional services, your broker can help you make an informed decision or answer any questions you may have.
