THE CHOICE IS SIMPLE - LET US DO ALL THE HARD WORK

Does this sound like you?

After years of renting you have at last made the decision to buy your first property. With the vast array of ever changing options available to you, where do you start? You turn to your partner for encouragement who looks more mystified & daunted than you by the whole home loan process. He too is confused by the myriad of choice and complex home loan jargon.

After work, you stay up late at night, surfing the internet. You research home loan choices, compare lenders, rates & features. You eagerly await the Reserve banks decision on interest rates every month & endlessly pour over newspapers to find the latest home loan deals. You take time off work to make appointments to talk with lenders as well as discussing your situation with well intentioned friends & family who only make you more confused and frustrated in the end. On weekends you visit open homes, go to auctions looking for your ideal property not understanding what the next steps are. Until at last - you find your dream property and can hardly contain your excitement as you know this is the one.... Or is it? It's a little more than you wanted to pay but you can afford it - can't you?

Sound familiar? There must be an easier way? There is!!!

How to choose a home loan

Here are 5 essential tips that you should consider when choosing a home loan:

1. Interest rates

Interest rate is obviously important, but remember that you are not simply looking for the home loan with the lowest interest rate because there are many other considerations.

For example, the mortgage lender with the ‘best’ interest rate may have high ongoing fees and therefore your home loan may cost you more in the long term than a similar one with a higher interest rate.

Be sure to consider ‘break and switch’ costs as well because if you decide to pay out your home loan or refinance before time will you be charged exorbitant fees to do so.

Also, be wary of an introductory rate. It may be ‘cheap’ at the start but it may also revert to a much higher rate after once the introductory term has finished. You should try to negotiate an interest rate discount with your mortgage lender over the longer term.

2. Features and flexibility

What are the home loan features that you need? Home loans with the ‘best’ interest rate may not have all the features you need or be as flexible as you need it to be. For example, do you want the ability to pay extra so you can prepare yourself for future rate rises and also create a buffer if your financial circumstances change?

You also need to consider the accessibility of your mortgage lender in terms of ATM, internet, face-to-face contact, etc. Decide what you need and ask whether your chosen home loan lender has the features available.

3. Consider the current home loan approval times


Is your home loan approval time critical? If so, the lender with the ‘best’ home loan may not be able to get your loan approved in time. During peak processing periods, lender service times can vary between 2 to 20 working days.

4. Compare home loan products

Visit a reputable mortgage broker with more than 20 lenders on their panel. This way, you can research and compare a broad range of home loans and lenders all within the one visit.
