Frequently asked questions
Selling your existing house before buying a new one gives you time to find your subsequent home. However, selling first does mean you’ll need to find accommodation quickly once your home has sold.
Meanwhile, buying a new home before selling the old one could be a suitable option because you’ll have a place to move in with your family. But to do this, you need to be able to cover costs of loan repayments for both properties for however long it takes to sell your old property. A bridging home loan could help you cover the cost of the new property purchase while you sell your old house.
A property report is helpful if you're looking to purchase a new property, know the address and want to determine if it’s the right property for you, or potentially in a high growth area.
Our property reports provide information such as Estimated property value, Property mapping, Properties sold in the area, Market comparison, Median sale prices in the area and Suburb insights.
We can provide approval for applicants in as little as 2-3 days, pending the customer's individual circumstances and all correct documentation has been provided. It's important to note that this is not a 'one size fits all' number, and the approval time will depend on each individual applicant's circumstances.
We'd always advise our customers to have the right documentation ready at application stage, so you can move forward with your application as quickly as possible. For more information on timeframes and documents required for your application:
What documents do I need to refinance my home loan?
An offset sub-account is linked to your home loan and helps reduce the interest you pay. Instead of earning interest like a regular savings account, the balance in your offset reduces the portion of your loan that accrues interest. This can help you pay off your loan faster and save on interest costs.
Key things to know:
- It's a sub-account of your loan, not a separate deposit account.
- Funds in the offset sub-account are not covered by the government deposit guarantee.
- The offset cannot exceed your home loan balance.
