What can I expect from my Sydney Inner West mortgage broker?

Mortgage brokers are not there to only find you a mortgage but also work with borrowers to assist with documentation to support the loan, help with the completion of paperwork, submit the loan application with the lender you choose and follow up with the lender during the loan application process.  Your broker should keep you informed throughout the entire loan process, and explain anything that is unclear.  A great independent mortgage broker will remain with you throughout the loan to offer you assistance. 

How much will it cost me to use a Sydney Inner West mortgage broker?

The services of a independent mortgage broker are free.   Instead, brokers get paid commissions by the lenders.  The amount you pay for your mortgage does not change, no matter what the commissions are.  You pay the same as if you had gone directly to the lender yourself.  And reputable mortgage brokers are not influenced by the commissions offered by a lender, instead they work to offer you unbiased advice.

Do I need a mortgage broker? 

Going direct to a lender may appear easier, but without the proper advice and knowledge, going direct may well turn out to be an extremely expensive exercise. Because mortgage brokers deal with a range of lenders, they have access to a range of different policies. Brokers will be aware of the benefits, exclusions and costs of competing policies on the market. They will also help arrange the application and settlement.

Want to negotiate a better deal with your current lender? 

If you already have a home loan and are curious as to whether you can get a better deal, you should be talking to your mortgage broker.  They can source and compare various other home loan products to see if there is another loan that would suit you better, taking into account every part of the loan such as fees, charges and added features, not just the interest rate.  It’s not worth changing your home loan for another that has a lower rate if it ends up costing you more in the long run due to fees or ‘hidden’ costs.  Your mortgage broker is experienced in the finer details of home loans and therefore is the best person to be scrutinising your mortgage.
