Initial Consultation
Your journey begins with a conversation about your property goals - whether you're purchasing a home, investing, refinancing, or seeking another type of loan. Our Finance & Mortgage Brokers explain the overall loan application process, assess your financial position, and begin identifying suitable loan options from a wide panel of banks and lenders across Australia.
Financial Assessment
Your broker conducts a detailed review of your finances, including income, expenses, assets, liabilities and savings. They determine your borrowing capacity and explain key terms like loan-to-value ratio (LVR), lenders mortgage insurance (LMI), and any government schemes or discounts you may be eligible for.
Loan Comparison & Selection
With a clear understanding of your financial situation, our Finance & Mortgage Brokers research and compare a range of loan options. These may include fixed or variable interest rate loans, products with offset accounts, or flexible repayment features. Our brokers help you weigh the pros and cons of each loan, ensuring you choose the one that aligns best with your needs and preferences.
Loan Pre-Approval
Securing loan pre-approval provides a clear idea of how much you can borrow and strengthens your position in the property market. Your broker prepares and submits the required documents - such as payslips, tax returns, and bank statements - to the lender for assessment. Pre-approval also gives you confidence to make offers when you find the right property.
Formal Loan Application
Once you've chosen your preferred loan, your broker completes and submits the formal application to the lender. They manage all required documentation, respond to any queries from the lender, and keep you informed throughout the process to avoid unnecessary delays.
Loan Approval & Settlement Preparation
After your loan is formally approved, our brokers review the loan agreement with you and confirm that all terms - such as interest rate, fees, and repayment schedule - are clear and understood. They also help you set up your loan account and arrange any necessary insurance, such as mortgage or home loan protection.
Settlement & Ongoing Support
At settlement, the lender advances the funds and ownership of the property is transferred to you. Our brokers coordinate with your solicitor or conveyancer to ensure everything runs smoothly. After settlement, our Finance & Mortgage Brokers remain available for ongoing support - whether it's managing repayments, exploring refinancing opportunities, or helping with future property plans.

Carl has been amazing to work with. He was on the ball straight from the start with knowing all the information I would need to provide. He was quick to respond while others would not return communication for weeks. He managed to secure me a great product in a short amount of time, even while we are on opposite sides of the country. I highly recommend getting in touch with Carl, you won't look back.

Nope, our service is free for most home loans. The lender pays us when your loan goes through, so it doesn't cost you anything to get our help and advice. If there's ever a fee for something special, we'll tell you upfront - no surprises.
As teachers, you face unique financial situations that big banks often don't understand - from casual teaching income to interstate transfers for positions. We specialise exclusively in helping teachers navigate these challenges. With access to over 2,000 loan products, we can find lenders who recognise your teaching qualifications as a strength, not a complication. We also understand the timing pressures of school terms and can work around your schedule, including completely online processes when needed.
Absolutely! We understand teachers' diverse financial needs. Beyond home loans, we can help with refinancing your existing mortgage to get better rates, investment loans for building your property portfolio, car loans (perfect for that reliable car to get to school), and construction loans if you're building your dream home. We also assist with first home buyer programmes specifically available to education professionals.
You might need less than you think! While 20% deposit is ideal, many teachers can buy with just 5-10% deposit. Some lenders will even waive mortgage insurance for teachers because they see you as low-risk borrowers. We'll find you the lowest deposit option that works for your situation.
Yes! Whilst banks might see irregular teaching income as high-risk, we know how to present your teaching experience and qualifications to lenders who understand the education sector. We can access the same competitive rates that permanent teachers get, and some lenders even offer special professional packages for qualified teachers. Your teaching registration and consistent work in education actually work in your favour with the right lenders.
All our mortgage brokers are fully licensed and accredited members of the Mortgage and Finance Association of Australia. More importantly, we've chosen to specialise exclusively in helping teachers because we understand your profession's unique challenges - from understanding pay scales and leave entitlements to knowing which lenders recognise teaching qualifications. We speak your language and know your industry.
We'll walk you through exactly what you need, but typically it's your employment contract or offer letter, recent payslips, bank statements, and proof of your teaching registration. If you're casual or relief teaching, don't worry - we know how to gather the right paperwork to show your consistent work history and make your application as strong as possible.
Moving schools is totally normal for teachers, and we work with lenders who get that. Whether you're chasing a promotion, going permanent, or just want a change of scenery, we'll show lenders that you're advancing your teaching career, not job-hopping. Your teaching registration and qualifications travel with you.
Great question! Teachers are often eligible for multiple benefits that can save thousands. This includes state-based first home buyer grants, stamp duty concessions, and some lenders offer exclusive deals for education professionals with reduced fees or preferential rates. We stay current on all teacher-specific benefits and ensure you don't miss out on any concessions you're entitled to as an education professional.
All of our Mortgage Brokers are accredited and members of the Mortgage and Finance Association of Australia. They are extremely professional and provide exceptional service across a range of lending options.
