Myths vs. Facts
Common Mortgage Myths and the Truths
Let’s debunk the most common misconceptions that could be costing you time, money, and opportunities.
You Need a 20% Deposit
Myth
There is an opinion that you should save one-fifth of the price of a home. This is an obsolete financial myth about mortgages.
Truth
Lenders often can approve loans with as little as 5% of the deposit, meaning you do not necessarily have to struggle to save a fortune and wait decades to buy a house any longer.
LMI Protects You, Not Just the Lender
Myth
Many believe LMI covers the borrower in case of default.
Truth
The lenders’ mortgage insurance (LMI) does not cover you, but the bank. Having a deposit of less than 20% would mean that you would probably pay LMI, which protects the lender when a borrower defaults.
Pre-Approval Means You're All Set
Myth
Pre-approval guarantees your loan will be approved.
Truth
A pre-approval is not a full and final approval. Your approval on completion will depend on your income, the valuation of the property, and fresh documents. It is an assistive measure, but not a promise.
You Need Perfect Credit to Get a Loan
Myth
You Need Perfect Credit to Get a Loan
Truth
Although good credit will assist you, you can easily get a loan with a few hiccups or past ones. Our brokers search out lenders who know your history and fill the match accordingly.
Interest Rate Is All That Matters
Myth
The lowest rate always means the best deal.
Truth
The lowest rate does not always turn out to be the best. You should also consider the fee, features (such as redrawing), and flexibility, along with long-term cost.
Refinancing Is Complex
Myth
Refinancing is painful and complicated.
Truth
Refinancing used to be painful, but now it is usually easy, and you might even save thousands by refinancing. Our brokers will do the paperwork side-by-side to make it easier for you.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can my credit history prevent me?
The credit mess is not a stopper. We can get you the lenders that best apply to your case and clarify your possibilities.
Is refinancing all too troublesome?
Not anymore. We do comparisons, paperwork, negotiation, and leave you with the benefits.
What is the truth of the role of LMI?
LMI covers the mortgagee (the bank) in the event of your default and not yourself. It is the case with smaller deposits, one way or another.
Pre-approval, final approval, what are the differences?
The pre-approval is subjective; the final approval has to wait until the valuation of the property and the comprehensive verification of the documents.
I am self-employed. Am I eligible to be advised?
Yes. We offer specialties in low-doc and custom loans to freelancers, contractors, and the owners of small businesses.
How frequently can I check my loan post-settlement?
Our recommendation is to do it on an annual basis, but we can always meet to change something in your goals or in your market changes.
