As brokers, we are remunerated by the lender we arrange your finance through so there is no cost to the consumer. Because The Home Loan Centre and our mortgage consultants are only paid if a loan settles, we have significant incentive to ensure you are satisfied with our service and the loan proceeds to settlement.
Your mortgage consultant can help you in the following ways:
- Calculate your maximum borrowing capacity and the minimum loan repayments on the loan you require.
- Explain the features, benefits and disadvantages of the products available in the marketplace.
- Help you make an informed decision regarding the selection of a home loan product and lender from our approved list.
- We help explain the necessary loan offer and mortgage documents to you.
- We will deal with the lender on your behalf throughout the application process right through to settlement.-
- We can, where necessary, liaise with your solicitor and/or real estate agent to help secure your property for you as quickly as possible.
