A good mortgage broker should know all the lenders, interest rates and fine print. They can help you to identify which mortgage deals will be the most appropriate for you and your circumstances.
An offset mortgage lets you use money in another account (savings or everyday) to reduce the balance of your mortgage when it comes to calculating the interest charged. The money stays in its own account and is available as usual.
An interest-only mortgage means your regular weekly, fortnightly or monthly payments only include the interest charged. So you don’t repay any of the money you borrowed (known as the principal) until the end.
Change is constant, so every now and then you should review your mortgage arrangements to see if there’s a better deal going. It might mean changing lenders or restructuring your loan with your existing lender.
A revolving credit mortgage is like an all-in-one bank account with a big overdraft facility. You can draw down a loan, put money in and take it out whenever you like, provided you don’t exceed your limit.
No. We provide you with information about mortgages and your potential ability to afford one. We do not arrange your loan or provide you with financial advice about what lender to use, how to structure a loan to meet your specific needs or the risks of borrowing the amount you want to. However, we can link you to a professional mortgage adviser who can help with those things.
