How do I get a mortgage?


How much deposit do I need?

There are various options available. Below is an explanation of different mortgage types.

100% loans are now very hard to get . They are available through the Welcome Home Loan product up to maximum purchase price of $200k. Qualifying criteria applies.

100% Finance is also available if there is equity in another property that can be used as security.

5% or greater deposit - This would be 5% of the purchase price or valuation whichever is the lesser.
eg. purchase is $300,000 so you will need $15,000. This can be savings or equity.

Security Loans - these are generally up to 70% of a properties value and are with non bank lenders. Interest rates are around 3% higher than banks and the loan term is short at up to 2 years.

A security loan can assist people who have equity in property and are unable to get bank finance. They can also assist in giving time to sell a property where payments may be in default
