What does a mortgage broker like Aussie do?

A mortgage broker will do all of the hard work and research in comparing loans and lenders based on your needs and eligibility. Your broker will also negotiate with your chosen lender on your behalf to make sure you are getting the right deal.

Aussie mortgage broker services will offer you:

  • A fee-free appointment. Aussie mortgage brokers are able to offer you their time and knowledge for free, because they are paid a commission by the lender you choose once your mortgage is settled.
  • Time-saving home loan comparison. The key to finding the right home loan and one which will see you through your home repayments as easily and affordably as possible is taking the time to make comparisons of each loan product. However, there are literally thousands of loans available in Australia at the moment and few people have the time to compare each one. That is where Aussie comes in because they do have the time and tools to help you.
  • Easy to understand guidance. If you have a host of questions about your home loan and were to spend the time asking a lender for all this information, you might feel obligated to sign with that lender. However, when you deal with an Aussie mortgage broker they will explain the details of each loan and answer all of your questions so you're happy with your choice and can make an informed decision.
  • Loan application assistance. Filling out the loan paperwork can be confusing and if you get it wrong, you could jeopardise your chances of loan approval. With Aussie making sure your eligibility criteria are satisfied and your application is completed correctly you have one less thing to worry about.
  • An ongoing service and relationship. You can use an Aussie broker for your first home, your second, third or fourth home, or for an investment property loan. Aussie can also help you negotiate a refinance of your existing loan to help you get a better deal or free up the equity in your property.

What are the benefits of choosing an Aussie mortgage broker?

If you’re looking for a few more reasons to instil your trust in an Aussie mortgage broker to secure you the right home loan for you and your family, compare these exclusive Aussie benefits:

  • Consecutively awarded ‘Australia's Top Mortgage Broker’. Aussie has won The Advisor's Top Broker award every year since 2013.

The software is constantly updated and takes into account honeymoon interest rates and other discounted rates to give you an accurate picture of the true cost of a home loan.
  • Assess your eligibility and needs in minutes. The Toolbox software can also tell you how much you may borrow and what your repayments will be.
  • Organise preapproval. An expert Aussie mortgage broker can meet with you before you start your search for your dream home, so you can be sure of the budget you have available for repayments, and your borrowing capacity.
  • Qualifications. All Aussie mortgage brokers are fully accredited by the Mortgage & Finance Association of Australia (MFAA) and have a Certificate IV (Financial Services) Mortgage Broking.

    I’m an Australian citizen has income from overseas. Based on my income alone I know I won’t be able to get the loan I anticipated. My question is if I can include my spouse’s income but buy the property under my name only, (my spouse is American citizen, doesn’t have PR here), and get the loan per combined income. Will I be treated as overseas investor or local?

      Hello Wonder,

      Thank you for your inquiry.

      Based on the details you have mentioned above, it is likely that your loan application may be classed as a foreign investor, hence it is of good recommendation that you speak to a mortgage broker who has expat lending experience to tackle this.

      There are only certain currencies that are being considered on the loan application, and not all lenders will be weighing this. You may consider low income home loans and those with guarantor as your alternative.

      Please read the fine print of the lending product as well as their eligibility requirement before applying.

      Hope this helps.

      Cheers,
      Jonathan

      Hi Reena,

      Refinancing to a debt consolidation loan involves reviewing your existing debts (and mortgage), and combining them into a new mortgage so that you have one monthly repayment, instead of several repayments.

      Many consolidate their debts to try and make their loan repayments more affordable. However, this strategy must make financial sense where the cost of the new loan including fees and interest is less than what you are currently paying on all your debts.

      Feel free to read more about refinancing home loans to consolidate debt.

      I suggest speaking to a mortgage broker directly for further assistance. A mortgage broker is a professional who compares and helps you apply for home loans on your behalf. A good mortgage broker will give you personalized service all the way through to settlement.

      I hope this helps.

      Cheers,
      Rench

      Hi Rach,

      Thanks for your question.

      One of the main issues to consider when you apply for an expat home loan (for Australian citizens, living abroad) is that each lender has its own approach when it comes to foreign income. Most Australian lenders will only accept a certain percentage of your foreign income, which allows a lender to protect itself against factors such as fluctuating exchange rates.

      Using foreign income for a mortgage is a complex and confusing topic. It would be best if you seek legal and taxation advice to make sure you satisfy all regulatory requirements.

      Cheers,
      Anndy
