Do I need a mortgage broker? Why can’t I just go direct to the lender?
You can of course, apply direct to a lender, however you would not be able to consider the full range of options available, instead you would only have access to that lender’s services and products. Using a mortgage broker offers you more choice and often a greater chance of approval. A mortgage broker can also assist you all the way through the process, helping you right up until and including settlement.
What will my mortgage broker actually do for me?
Mortgage brokers work to find you the best match between your situation and their panel of banks and other major lenders. They will look at your personal financial situation and then look at the deals that have the best features and the lowest price. They are also there to help you through the whole process, from the beginning, right up to settlement.
My mortgage broker didn’t charge me for their services?
Mortgage brokers work on a ‘contingency basis’ and are paid by the lender when the settlement is completed. You pay nothing to the mortgage broker for their services. Regardless of what the lender pays the broker, you will not pay a higher interest on your home loan.
Can I use a mortgage broker to negotiate with my existing lender?
The experience and knowledge that your mortgage broker has, will definitely be an advantage when you come to negotiate with your current lender. If you feel nervous negotiating yourself, then a mortgage broker can act on your behalf. Once the lender knows that it is the broker’s job to get the best deal they can for you, then this becomes a great advantage to you. Using a mortgage broker gives you a greater chance of negotiating a better deal with your current lender.
