Slide 1

nikki

Meet Nikki, a fantastic customer of ours who came to us when it was time to buy a bigger home.

  • My wife and I have a son and we are looking to potentially expand our family with another child, so we needed a bigger house.

  • We wanted to work out a deal with the person buying our old home, the person selling to us, and, of course, ensure that the finance arrangements would support that. loans.com.au played a large role managing the finance side of things and ensuring that no bridging finance was required.

Slide 1

Alex

Meet Alex, one of our awesome home loan customers who asked us for help to downsize his home and reduce his mortgage.

  • Even though we had a big deposit from the sale of an earlier home which had doubled in price, after 12 hikes the rising repayments on the new home became too much.

  • Our existing loan was with loans.com.au, and they had a very competitive interest rate, so we spoke to them and arranged finance for our new, more affordable home.

Slide 1

Baburaj

Meet Baburaj, a customer of ours who has financed multiple investment properties with us over the years.

  • Baburaj has been building or buying and renovating investment properties for more than a decade.

  • I have been with loans.com.au for about five years. Over that period, I’ve had five or six loans. I like to stick with loans.com.au because they know my history.

Absolutely brilliant, professional and very informative

What a joy to deal with Liam and Emira from Loans.com. I started applying for my car loan last Thursday and by Tuesday afternoon the car dealer was paid. Liam and Emira were absolutely brilliant, professional and very informative. My mortgage comes off fixed next June and I know where I will be moving to. Thank you for everything.

Frequently asked questions

An expatriate customer is an Australian or New Zealand citizen who is living and working overseas.

At loans.com.au, we help people into their dream homes and cars.

To apply for the Expat Home Loan or any of our loans, visit: https://www.loans.com.au/apply or call 1300 572 814 and one of our lending specialists can help, or even complete the application for you.

You can get your dream home at a low rate because we don't have to pay for branches or broker commissions and have innovative technology processes, which means we pass our savings directly on to you.

There are a few documents you'll need to provide in your home loan application. Some of these include:

  • Two (2) most recent consecutive payslips for each applicant
  • Three (3) months bank statements showing regular salary credits, including most recent salary credits with the name of the employer evident
  • Evidence of Salary Sacrifice or Packaging (if applicable)
  • Evidence of Company Vehicle/Car Allowance (if applicable)

If you're thinking about buying property, applying for a home loan can be seamless from start to settlement. One simple online application can tell you how much you can borrow, give you pre-approval and help you track your application progress all the way to ownership. To learn more, click here.

The settlement process is different depending on each individual applicant's personal situation, but we generally say it can take anywhere between 4 to 6 weeks. To get to settlement, you'll need to apply, speak to one of our lending specialists, upload your documentation, get the property valued, have your loan approved and the documentation delivered and signed, then you'll settle.

We charge a $300 settlement fee plus a security assessment fee. The security assessment fee for a standard property in a metropolitan area in a major city starts at $230 for properties valued up to $1 million. The security assessment fee is not refundable and is payable when the security assessment is ordered.

After settlement, you'll nominate on your direct debit form when you start repayments. Our Customer Care team will also confirm your repayment dates when calling you at loan settlement. Additional repayments into a fixed home loan are allowed and are up to $10,000 per year.

We sure do! Introduce someone to loans.com.au and we'll reward you when they settle their loan with us!

For home loans, we'll give you a huge $1000 bonus when they settle their home loan with us and your friend will also receive $1000.
