Construction loans in the Wollongong area

Building your home can be an exciting opportunity to customise it to your needs and tastes, which may be especially appealing when you can’t find your dream home on the market. When you decide to build a home, or substantially renovate your current home, you’ll need an amazing construction loan to set you off on the right track. Unlike a standard home loan, you will also need to provide approved council plans and other documentation when you apply for a construction loan. But never fear - Tim can help you decipher exactly what you need, and will even complete and submit your application. 

Construction loans also differ from standard loans in their structure. Your loan amount will be progressively ‘drawn down’ to fund each stage of the build - these are generally base, framing, lock-up, fixing and completion. The benefit to this is that you will only pay interest on the money that has been used, instead of the full amount immediately, keeping your initial repayments low. When you’re ready to think about building your home, Tim will guide you through the entire process to ensure you get the right loan for your circumstances.

Calculating your borrowing power

When it comes to buying a property, the ultimate question is just how much you’ll be able to afford. Lenders will determine your borrowing power based on your income and financial commitments such as other debts. From this, you can work out your repayment budget and narrow down your property search into a realistic range. 

Compare interest rates

Your interest rate can have a huge effect on your overall financial health. A lower rate might be able to save you a considerable amount of cash over the length of your loan. Compare how your loan might look with a different interest rate using our handy calculator tool - it’s completely free to use!
