At Teacher Loans, we understand the unique financial landscape faced by teachers and education professionals in Australia. We are committed to helping you access loan options from banks and lenders across Australia with ease. Our team of experienced finance and mortgage brokers is dedicated to finding the right solutions tailored to your needs, whether you're looking to refinance for a better interest rate, release equity in your property, or consolidate debts to reduce loan repayments. With our expertise, you can explore better loan options that align with your financial goals and lifestyle.
Our finance and mortgage brokers are skilled in assisting you with a wide range of services. If you're seeking ways to reduce your loan repayments, we're here to help you explore accessing a lower interest rate or adjusting your loan amount. By regularly reviewing your current home loan rate, you can discover opportunities to switch between fixed and variable interest rates or change your loan term. This flexibility can lead to significant savings and ensure that your mortgage aligns with your current financial situation.
For those considering major life decisions, such as planning renovations or buying an investment property, releasing equity in your property can provide a valuable source of funds. Our team can guide you through the process of releasing equity to buy the next property or to invest in home improvements that add value to your existing property. Additionally, if you're thinking about topping up your home loan, we can assist you in accessing better loan features that suit your evolving needs.
It's important to regularly review your loan to ensure you're getting the most out of your mortgage. Conducting a mortgage health check with us can identify areas where you might save money or benefit from better terms. You may find that refinancing for new interest rates could significantly impact how much you can save over the life of the loan. Whether you're aiming to pay off your home sooner or looking to reduce or lock in your repayments, our team is here to offer advice on accessing these opportunities.
If you're uncertain about switching between fixed and variable interest rates or altering the loan term, our finance and mortgage brokers provide expert guidance tailored to teachers and education professionals. We understand the importance of finding a balance between financial commitments and professional aspirations. By providing access to better loan features and interest rates, we enable you to make informed decisions that support both your current needs and future goals.

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.
