Home Loans

Home loans are the core service offering for Newy finance, our objective is to get Novocastians into a quality home, on the best product, and to make sure you’re receiving the best long term deal.

Newy Finance helps people obtain new home loans, as well as refinance existing home loans. Click here to learn more about refinancing.

Obtaining a home loan can be simplified, with the following circumstances playing the biggest role:

  • Your current and future income
  • What you have available as a deposit
  • Your long term servicing of the loan

It pays to plan for different scenarios, you might want to buy a property as an owner-occupier and then use it as an investment down the track, or refinance later to obtain a construction loan. We’ll be planning for your long term success.

All lenders work out loan approval differently. Brokers provide value by consolidating the information from 30+ lenders, define long term budgets, optimise the repayment of the loan, ensure the product is strong and establish if it’s a good deal for you.

Process

Our first phone call

When we first chat on the phone, I’m going to ask you a couple of straight forward questions, just so that I can get an idea of what’s going on.

There’s a few things you need to be aware of here –

  1. I’m honest. If you come to me for help with your mortgage and your current finance setup could be improved, I’ll tell you. I aim to maximise your financial success.
  2. The first call is just a chat – not a dirty sales pitch. I’ll ask questions about your dependants, marital status, income, commitments, other loans and debts. I’ll use this information to see if you fit with any of my lenders.
  3. I’m happy to touch on my pricing. I like to be clear and upfront about fees, to save your time, and mine.

Moving forward, we’ll tee up a face to face meeting and I’ll perform thorough groundwork on your situation and prepare options for you.

Our first meeting

Mortgage brokers streamline the home loan process. I’ll essentially be gathering a lot of evidence documents from you so I can work with the lenders, you can relax and keep looking at properties.

The following documents would be helpful to have on hand:

  • Payslips
  • Identification (i.e. license and passport)
  • Statements (i.e. ongoing debt, savings)
  • Deposit information

I’ll use these documents to submit an application with the respective lender for pre-approval.

Purchasing a property is never an easy task. I’m happy to take the time with you, we can talk about prospective property – and take things at your pace.

How to apply for a home loan

Pre-approval to unconditionally approved finance

Before submitting our final application for approval, I want to be sure you’re confident and happy with the prospective loan

  • You fully understand the long term structure of the loan
  • The total loan amount. This amount would include conveyancing fees and processing fees with the NSW Land Registry Services

If you’re happy with all that, I’ll get your signature(s). Then I’ll submit the documentation on your behalf and work with the lender’s assessors to take it through to approval. I will be your central contact and let you know if you need to do anything.

Once approval is done, the lender will issue the loan documents. We’ll meet again to ensure it’s the product and loan amount we’ve chosen. If we’re ready, you sign the loan documents, I send them back and we wait for settlement.

Ongoing support

After settlement you’ll be busy fixing the fence so the dog won’t escape and enjoying your new home. Every few months I’ll touch base to see how you’re doing. Anything ongoing you think you need a bank for, that’s what I’m here for.

If your lender releases a new home loan with a really good fixed rate (and you want a fixed loan), then I’ll do the paperwork and organise that on your behalf.

You may establish a lot of equity in your home and you want to buy an investment, I’m here to help for that too.

I almost forgot – there’s a set of BBQ tongs and a bottle of wine in it for you.

Home Loan FAQ

How does Newy Finance help first home buyers?

Put simply, first home buyers have no experience buying property. They only know what they’ve heard, and have no experience. So they’re at a disadvantage.

I spend a lot more time with first home buyers. I provide them with more updates, more communication and take the time to go over everything comprehensively.

First home buyers are generally not on the greatest income and repayments can be difficult, so I’ll be working with the lender to make the right changes to the loan to maximise a first home buyer’s finance.

Can you help me obtain a guarantor loan?

Yes, a guarantor loan or a “family pledge” loan is when a family member uses an asset for security on the loan.

There’s a fair bit involved, so I’m definitely there from start to finish.

How much deposit do I require to purchase a property?

If you have a family pledge or a guarantor, you don’t need any deposit.

With recent Government schemes released and stamp duty exemption for first home buyers a 5% deposit is reasonable. If it’s a $600,000 purchase price, the minimum that you need is about $30,000

I am self employed under a company structure. What documentation do I require to obtain a home loan?

In this situation, you’ll need two years of the following financials:

  • Personal tax returns
  • Company tax returns
  • Profit and loss statements
  • Liabilities for the company, and the individual
  • Information on each director within the company
