Your Step-by-Step Guide to Purchasing a Property Julie Anne Administration Assistant Julie joined the Home Loans and More team with over 40 years experience spanning most aspects of banking. Her move to the broking world 4 years ago has seen her make a valuable contribution to Home Loans and More. Julie s whatever it takes to get the job done attitude has resulted in outstanding results for our valued clients. What has impressed me the most at Home Loans and More is the quality of loan submissions which invariably results in fast turnaround times for approvals and settlements for our clients. 1. BOOK AN APPOINTMENT WITH HOME LOANS AND MORE As soon as you are considering purchasing a property, the best step forward is to discuss your goals with one of our consultants. They ll make sure that what you are aiming for is realistic, and give you advice on the best way to proceed, including advice on pre-approval. 2. START LOOKING FOR PROPERTIES IN THE PRICE RANGE DISCUSSED If any properties are of interest to you, email the address to your Home Loans and More consultant who will do a background check on the property. Amongst other research, this may include how long the vendor has owned the property, comparative sales for the area, and how long the property has been on the market. 3. READY TO MAKE AN OFFER Your consultant will assist with how to do this, and strategies to ensure you have the best chance of securing the property. You are welcome to fill in offer forms or contracts at our office for us to send to the selling agent, or discuss over the phone prior to sending them yourself. If attending an auction, our consultant will be present at your request to ensure the process runs smoothly. 4. GREAT NEWS, YOUR OFFER IS SUCCESSFUL! Another interview with your Home Loans and More consultant is generally recommended at this stage. As you now have a firm price, it s best to check that the previously discussed loan product is still your best option. At this interview we will be preparing to lodge your application. 5. ORGANISE INSURANCE Once the cooling-off period has expired, you become liable for the property even though you haven t paid for it yet. To ensure all legalities are met, we can organise, on your behalf, free cover prior to settlement for up to 90 days. 6. LENDER APPROVAL PROCESS Application is lodged on your behalf, and within 3-5 days we start to see status reports coming through. Our consultant will advise you of the progress, and if the contract is subject to finance approval they ll keep the real estate agent advised of progress, as well. During this process we also liaise with the valuer and conveyancer, to make sure everything is running smoothly behind the scenes. 7. UNCONDITIONAL APPROVAL This is when we contact you with the good news that your loan has been formally approved and the agent is advised to put the SOLD sign up on your behalf. Home Loans and More will contact all relevant parties on your behalf. 8. FORMAL DOCUMENTATION SIGNING At this point, legal documentation will be provided by your bank, ready for you to sign. The consultant who s worked with you throughout the process will check these documents over and explain them to you. Once lodged with your financial institution, your loan is ready to be booked in for settlement. From here, your conveyancer will organise the legal transaction on your behalf, ready for you to receive the keys to your new home. homeloansandmore.com.au // Page 5

FAQ It s simple to make an appointment with Home Loans & More... I ve seen brokers advertising who claim to offer outstanding service. What s the difference if I deal with Home Loans and More? If you re buying a home, we start our service by helping you work out what you re looking for in a property, including size, area etc. Together, we then work out how much that style of property will cost based on industry knowledge and researching past sales history. From there, we work out how to fund the property. In other words, the property you re looking to buy can make a big difference to the loan we recommend. This is quite different to other finance providers who recommend a loan based on the maximum amount you can borrow without factoring in your goals for that individual property. For example, if you re looking to buy a cheap unit to renovate and rent out, we may offer you a different loan than if you re looking to buy a high-value home to live in that needs absolutely nothing spent on it. At Home Loans and More, we tailor the finance to each individual s circumstances on the day. What s your best interest rate? The question should really be What s the best interest rate for me? Because the one size fits all cheap rate is quite often the worst loan for your particular circumstances! At Home Loans and More, we ll recommend the best loan for you which may not necessarily have the cheapest rate. Because don t forget the fees! And rates don t take into account your goals, either. At Home Loans and More, we do. Should I fix or stay variable? As a common theme at Home Loans and More, this again is tailored to you. We never recommend a fixed loan to try and beat the bank. Instead, a fixed rate should be seen as a form of insurance. Often, the more in debt you are based on your ability to repay, the more you need this form of insurance. Are you a part of an industry body? Yes, all loan consultants of Home Loans and More are full members of the Mortgage and Finance Association of Australia. Here is a list of the documents you will need so we can give you the correct information: INCOME: 2 recent payslips Latest tax assessment or group certificate Proof of rental or investment income (statements/lease agreements) Centrelink Family Assistance LIABILITIES: Personal Loans (6 months statements) Vehicle finance (6 months statements) Credit Cards (3 months statements) Investment loans (6 months statements) Department Store cards (3 months statements) Call Jodie to make an appointment! 1300 133 778 approvals@homeloansandmore.com.au homeloansandmore.com.au // Page 11
