Common Questions

Got questions? We've got answers.

The stuff people always want to know before they reach out.

It depends on your income, expenses, debts, and the lender's criteria — but as a rough guide, most lenders will consider lending 5–7x your annual income. The best way to find out is a quick discovery call where we can run through your actual numbers and give you a real figure, not a rough guess.
Pre-approval can often be done within 24–72 hours once we have your documents. Full unconditional approval typically takes 3–10 business days depending on the lender. We stay on top of it so you're never left wondering what's happening.
Not necessarily. Many lenders accept as little as 5% deposit, and first home buyers may be eligible for government schemes that allow you to buy with even less. You may need to pay Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI) if your deposit is under 20%, but we can help you weigh up whether that makes sense for your situation.
Brokers are paid a commission by the lender once your loan settles — so our service is completely free to you. We're required by law to act in your best interests, and we'll always be upfront about any commissions received.
A bank can only offer you their own products. A broker compares 35+ lenders to find the right fit for your situation — often getting you a better rate, better features, or both. And with 20+ years of GC market experience, we bring local insights that no call centre ever could.
Yes, but there may be a break cost depending on your lender and how much time is left on your fixed term. We'll help you calculate whether the savings from refinancing outweigh the exit fees — sometimes it's a no-brainer, sometimes it's worth waiting. We'll tell you honestly either way.
