How it works

Frequently Asked Question

How long does it take to get to settlement?

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.

What documents will I need to provide to apply?

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)
Six (6) consecutive months of home loan statements showing consistent repayment history (if applicable)

What are the settlement fees?

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.

Why do you offer such low rates? What’s the catch?

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.

How do I manage my payments after settlement?

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.

Do you have a 'refer a friend' program?

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.

For car loans, we'll give you a huge $250 bonus when they settle their car loan with us and your friend will also receive $150 off their settlement fee.

How do I apply?

To apply for any of our loans, visit: https://www.loans.com.au/apply or call 1300 528 731 and one of our lending specialists can help, or even complete the application for you.

Do you offer an offset sub-account?

Yes, we do offer the option to add an offset sub-account to our variable products for an additional 0.10%^. For more information on this, please call one of our lending specialists on 1300 528 731.

How much deposit do I need to have?

loans.com.au requires a minimum deposit of 10% of the purchase price of the property, or the current value of the property if you are refinancing. To avoid paying Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI), borrowers need a 20% deposit in most cases.
