SERVICES THAT WE OFFER

Mortgage broker FAQs

In simple terms, a mortgage broker is a financial professional that acts as a middleman between borrowers and lenders to help secure a home loan. Our Newcastle mortgage brokers will work with prospective borrowers to assess their unique financial situation and provide the best mortgage solution on their behalf.

Mortgage brokers have access to all of the same lending products as the general public, but they also have access to lenders and deals that are not accessible to the public. Unlike banks or other financial institutions that are limited to offering their own loan products, mortgage brokers have the freedom to shop the market to find the best deal without any allegiance or loyalty to different banks. We are a member of AFCA to ensure client protection.

Working with a mortgage broker in Newcastle offers a number of benefits, including:

  • Access to a wide range of loan products from multiple lenders
  • Simplified loan application process
  • Working for the borrower, not the lender
  • Industry expertise helps borrowers navigate the lending process
  • Save time and effort compared to going between banks
  • Knowledge of local suburbs from Newcastle East to Tighes Hill, Rankin Park and more. 

By working with a mortgage broker, borrowers will access to a broader range of loan products and enjoy the benefit of having an experienced professional to guide them through the process. Mortgage brokers are also regulated by ASIC to ensure that we always act in your best interests, banks generally only act in their own interests. 

Yes, we can help you refinance your existing home loan. Whether you’re looking to lower your monthly repayments, switch lenders, adjust the loan term or gain early access to equity in your home we have access to a wide range of loan products from multiple lenders that can help.

We have helped hundreds of home owners in Newcastle refinance their home loan and secure terms that are favourable to their current financial position. Whatever your reason, our team of mortgage experts can guide you through the process and secure the best possible deal when refinancing your mortgage.

As a mortgage broker, we have access to a wide range of loan products from different lenders. The interest rate that we can secure will depend on your unique financial situation and the current market rates. Our brokers will work with you to understand your position and foals and then provide you with personalised lending options with the most competitive rates on the market. 

Eligibility for a home loan in Newcastle (and the rest of Australia for that matter) is dependant on a number of factors including:

  • Your income
  • Credit score
  • Debt to income ratio
  • Employment history & job stability
  • Down payment
  • The value of the purchase property

Our team will work with you to understand your financial situation and assess your eligibility for a home loan based on these factors. 

All of it! We work with clients right across Newcastle, Lake Macquarie, the Central Coast and Maitland. Some of our customers bought properties in:

  • Broadmeadow
  • Glendale
  • Kotara
  • Mayfield
  • Stockton

Our services don’t cost a thing. That’s right, not a single cent.

We do all of the hard work for you and get paid a commission directly from the lender that you choose to go with. This commission is not added to your loan amount or hidden anywhere.

That’s just one reason that more than 70% of Australians are currently using a mortgage broker. 

Mortgage brokers are known for two things – securing the best rates and simplifying the home buying process.

Cross checking multiple banks and lenders is a big undertaking, in fact, for us – it’s a full-time job. Working with a home loan specialist means that we do all of the leg work and present the best options to our clients. We’ll compare a whole panel of different lenders and banks and present the findings back to you. Based on this information, we then provide you with the intel to make the best possible decision for your personal circumstances.

 

Choosing between a bank and broker comes down to personal preferences. Of course, we believe that the merits of working with a broker far outweighs working directly with banks because we can choose from a more loan providers to find the best one. We don’t have any alliances or loyalty towards one bank or lender, instead, we cross-shop to find the best rate based on your circumstances.

When you work with a bank, you’ll see loans from one provider. When you work us, you’ll be informed about the best loans from more than 60 lenders. From there, you can make an informed decision to suit your desired loan terms.  

Absolutely. There are options for those who may not be eligible for traditional loan products. Perhaps you’re self-employed or a small business owner and don’t have access to conventional documentation, such as payslips, to prove your income. There are still loan products you can apply for successfully to buy a home!

One possible method is to apply for a guarantor home loan, which will involve a person who agrees to become legally responsible for your repayments should you find yourself unable to make them. A guarantor home loan is especially suitable if you are considered a high-risk applicant, lack traditional documentation, or have a low credit score.

At Wisebuy Home Loans, we can help you regardless of your circumstances. We understand that traditional lenders may struggle to assess income for self-employed individuals and small business owners, but with our network of over 60 lenders, we can help you find the right loan product for your new home.

Of course, that’s what we do! The first step for our mortgage brokers at Wisebuy Home Loans is to work with you to understand and assess your income, employment history, credit score, job stability, debt-to-income ratio, and any other relevant information.

Evaluating these financial factors helps our team determine your borrowing capacity and gauge how lenders view your creditworthiness. By understanding your financial capabilities, preferences, and ambitions, we will identify the most suitable home loan for you and how much you can comfortably borrow.

Our mortgage brokers will guide and support you throughout the entire process, from pre-approval to settlement.

The time taken to achieve pre-approval for your mortgage will vary depending on the institution you’re lending from and your financial circumstances. Generally, mortgage pre-approval can take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks.

 

Our mortgage brokers work diligently to speed up the process by speaking with the lender on your behalf and ensuring that all the necessary documentation ready. Using our extensive knowledge of the local market, and the strong relationships we have built with over 60 lenders in Newcastle, we will ensure a seamless pre-approval process for you.

 

If you’re considering applying for a home loan in Newcastle, getting pre-approved is vital. Here’s why:

  • It gives you an indication of your borrowing power (how much you can borrow)

  • It can help you narrow your property search

  • Pre-approval makes you more attractive to sellers

  • The final approval process may be sped up

Receiving pre-approval is always a massive weight off your shoulders, and once you get approval, you can start searching for your dream property. When you find the right property within your financial capabilities, you will make an offer, negotiate a purchasing price, and finalise the home loan application with your chosen lender.

Our mortgage brokers will help you throughout the mortgage application process, from submitting the necessary security documents to working closely with the lender to ensure a seamless process. We will act as a liaison between you and the lender, guiding you from pre-approval to settlement. 

Home loans aren’t just about principal deposits and repayments. When you take out a home loan, you’ll have to pay interest along with your repayments. Your interest rate will depend on the loan product and lender and the home loan type. Some home loans will have higher interest rates but lower deposits, while others may have high initial deposits but lower interest rates.

Additional costs may also include taxes such as stamp duty, legal aid, building inspection costs, mortgage registration fees and lender’s mortgage insurance (LMI).

To prepare to pay these costs for your home loan, make a comprehensive budget, taking into account the total expenditure of a home loan over the entire period of the home-buying process.

Yes, certainly. There are loan products created explicitly for first-home buyers. First-home buyer loans usually offer unique benefits to make the property market more accessible to newcomers, such as lower interest rates, reduced deposit requirements, and stamp duty concessions or exemptions. If you’re a first-time homebuyer in Newcastle, you may also be eligible for government grants such as the NSW First Home Owner’s Grant.

There are also around 50,000 spots per annum under the First Home Loan Deposit Scheme. This scheme allows first home buyers to purchase with as little as 2-5% deposit without paying lenders mortgage insurance (LMI).

Your credit score will ultimately depend on your financial behaviour over an extended period of time. Some practices you can follow to improve your credit score can include:

  • Regularly paying your bills.

  • Meeting repayments and returning any other outstanding loans.

  • Reducing or eliminating outstanding debts and liabilities.

  • Keeping your credit card balances low and avoiding debt.

  • Periodically checking your credit report.

Boosting your creditworthiness isn’t something that happens overnight; it’s a lengthy process that requires you to be conscientious and safe with your spending and financial activity.

If you decide not to go ahead, then there are no hard feelings on our end.

We know that circumstances can change which is why you won’t be locked into working with us at any point during the process. We provide a no-pressure, ‘information is key’ environment to help our clients make the best decision for their circumstances.

Whether you choose to proceed now, or you work with us in the future, we’re here to support you.

Our team will help you to understand the documentation that you need based on the lender and the loan product. Some of the most common things include:

  • Proof of income
  • Proof of address
  • Proof of employment
  • Bank statements
  • Property related documents

Depending on the lender and the home loan, our team will provide you with a complete list of required documentation and help to guide you through the process.
