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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you charge me any fees?

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.

Why should I use Teacher Home Loans instead of going directly to a bank?

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.

Can you help with more than just home loans for teachers?

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.

How much deposit do I need as a teacher?

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.

I'm a casual or relief teacher - can you still help me get a competitive interest rate?

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.

Are your mortgage brokers qualified to understand teachers' unique situations?

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.

What documents do I need as a teacher?

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.

What if I want to move between schools or from public to private?

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.

As a first-time home buyer and teacher, what special benefits am I entitled to?

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.

Are your mortgage brokers licensed and accredited?

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.
