Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Finance Hub & Networks? +
Finance Hub & Networks Pty Ltd (ACL 573164) is an award-finalist mortgage brokerage that compares home loans across 30+ lenders to find the most suitable deal for your situation. We have settled over $600 million in loans and hold 353+ five-star Google reviews from satisfied clients across Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide and all of Australia.
How much does a mortgage broker cost? +
There is no direct charge to you for our mortgage broking service. We receive a commission from the lender when your loan settles — this is disclosed to you in writing before you proceed, as required by law. Our obligation under the Best Interests Duty is to recommend the loan that suits your situation, regardless of which lender pays the highest commission.
How many lenders do you compare? +
We compare home loan products from over 30 lenders, including major Australian banks, second-tier banks, non-bank lenders, and credit unions. This wide panel gives us the flexibility to find competitive rates and loan features that match your specific needs — whether you’re a first home buyer, investor, or looking to refinance.
What documents do I need to apply for a home loan? +
Typically you’ll need: proof of identity (driver’s licence or passport), recent payslips or tax returns (if self-employed), bank statements showing savings history, details of any existing debts (credit cards, car loans), and information about the property you wish to purchase. We’ll provide you with a personalised checklist at your first consultation so nothing is missed.
What is pre-approval and why should I get it? +
Pre-approval (or conditional approval) is an indication from a lender of how much they may be willing to lend you. It typically lasts 90 days and gives you confidence when making offers at auction or private sale across Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and all of Australia. It also helps you focus your property search within a realistic budget. Pre-approval is not a guarantee of final approval — the lender will still assess the specific property and your updated financial position.
How long does the home loan process take? +
From initial consultation to settlement, the process typically takes 4–8 weeks. Pre-approval can be obtained in 1–5 business days for straightforward applications. After you sign a contract of sale, formal approval usually takes 7–14 business days, followed by the settlement period (typically 30–42 days in NSW, VIC and SA). Complex scenarios such as self-employment or construction loans may take longer.
Should I choose a fixed or variable interest rate? +
It depends on your financial goals. Variable rates offer flexibility — you can make extra repayments and use an offset account to reduce interest. Fixed rates provide certainty with locked repayments for 1–5 years. Many borrowers choose a split loan (part fixed, part variable) for the best of both worlds. We’ll model different scenarios so you can see exactly how each option affects your repayments.
Can I get a home loan with a low deposit? +
Yes. While 20% is the standard deposit to avoid Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI), many lenders accept deposits as low as 5–10%. First home buyers may also be eligible for the First Home Guarantee, which allows a 5% deposit with no LMI. Family guarantee arrangements, where a parent uses their property equity as additional security, are another option. We’ll assess which strategy saves you the most.
Can you help if I’m self-employed or a contractor? +
Absolutely. Self-employed borrowers, contractors, and freelancers often face extra hurdles — but we work with specialist lenders who offer low-doc and alt-doc loan products. Depending on your situation, you may be able to use BAS statements, accountant declarations, or bank statements in place of traditional tax returns. We know which lenders are most flexible and can structure your application for the strongest outcome.
What is Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI)? +
LMI is a one-off insurance premium that protects the lender (not you) if you default on your loan. It’s typically required when you borrow more than 80% of the property value. The cost ranges from a few thousand to tens of thousands of dollars depending on loan size and deposit. We can help you explore strategies to avoid or minimise LMI, including government schemes, family guarantees, and professional packages for eligible occupations such as doctors, lawyers, and accountants.
How do I know if I should refinance my home loan? +
If your current interest rate is more than 0.30% above what’s available in the market, refinancing could save you thousands. Common triggers include: your fixed rate is about to expire, you want to access equity, consolidate debts, or your lender hasn’t passed on recent RBA rate cuts. We offer a complimentary Home Loan Health Check — we’ll compare your current loan against our panel and show you exactly how much you could save.
What government grants are available for first home buyers? +
Several Australian government incentives can help first home buyers, including: the First Home Owner Grant (FHOG) for new builds (up to $10,000 in NSW, $10,000 in VIC, $15,000 in QLD & SA), stamp duty concessions or exemptions (varies by state), the First Home Guarantee (buy with 5% deposit, no LMI), and the First Home Super Saver Scheme (withdraw voluntary super contributions for your deposit). Eligibility and amounts vary by state and property type — we’ll help you identify every dollar you’re entitled to.
