A clearer starting point.

General answers to common lending questions. Your own position may be different, so talk with Paul before making a decision.

What should I bring to the first conversation?

A broad picture is enough to begin: your income, current commitments, savings or equity, the amount you may need and what you are hoping to achieve. Paul can then explain which supporting documents will be needed.

What is lenders mortgage insurance?

Lenders mortgage insurance, often called LMI, may apply when the amount borrowed is high compared with the property value. It protects the lender rather than the borrower. Whether it applies and how much it costs depends on the lender, loan and circumstances.

How does an offset account work?

An eligible offset account is linked to a home loan. The balance held in the account is offset against the loan balance when interest is calculated. Features, fees and eligibility differ between loan products.

What is different about a construction loan?

Construction lending is usually released in stages as work progresses. Lenders commonly require a fixed-price building contract, approved plans and other project information before approval.

Can I refinance with the same lender?

Sometimes your current lender can offer a different product or structure. A proper review can compare that option with alternatives while considering fees, benefits and the total cost of changing.

Can self-employed borrowers get a home loan?

Yes. The available options and documents depend on how long the business has operated, how income is demonstrated and the lender’s policy. It is worth discussing the position early.
