8 Steps to home ownership
STEP 1 – The property search begins
- We can provide you with an accurate indication of your borrowing power and how much cash you will need to input. This gives you confidence in knowing whether you can or cannot afford the property you are looking at.
- At this stage we will discuss and begin to present the best lender options suitable to your circumstances.
- We can also arrange a ‘pre-approval’ with your desired lender to give you the edge on other buyers.
- We provide complimentary RP Data Professional Property Reports for any properties and suburbs you may be looking to purchase to empower you when negotiating a price.
STEP 2 – It’s time to make an offer
- You will need to identify the maximum amount you are willing to pay for the property – bearing in mind what you can afford.
- We can assist by touching base with the real estate agent to get further insight into the transaction.
- Once you have made an offer, you will need to formalise it by completing an Offer and Acceptance (O&A). You will need to engage the services of a Licensed Conveyor to coordinate settlement with the seller and new lender.
- We have a relationship with Lacey and Co Conveyancing who offer our clients a “free contract check” to ensure the O&A is completed correctly and in your favour.
STEP 3 – Your offer is accepted!
So your offer has been accepted by the seller and it is full steam ahead with the mortgage application.
- Once the seller accepts your offer you will both sign off the O&A.
- At this stage it is time to select a lender (if you haven’t already done so).
- We then complete and compile your home loan application for you to double check and sign.
- Once signed, we lodge your application with the lender with all the supporting documentation.
- It is also a good idea at this time to engage the services of a building inspector – we can help point you in the right direction here.
STEP 4 – Your home loan application is lodged with your chosen lender
At this stage your application will be with your selected lender’s Credit Assessment Team.
- We will liaise with the Credit Assessor to get your loan approved.
- They may request further information or documentation which we will work with you to provide.
- The lender will want to order a valuation of the property at this stage – we will arrange this with the real estate agent.
- All going well – we get Unconditional Approval for the loan and we proceed to loan document signing.
STEP 5 – Your home loan is approved and it’s time to sign the loan documents
Once Unconditional Approval is confirmed, the lender will generate and issue the loan documentation.
- We will double check all documents to ensure they are correct.
- The lender’s loan document team will generate the loan documents.
- Once documents are confirmed we will arrange a loan document signing appointment – here we will explain all documents in detail prior to signing.
- We will then send the completed documents back to your lender.
STEP 6 – We’re ready to book settlement for your new purchase
Once your lender confirms the signed documents have been received and completed correctly, they will advise us they are ready to book settlement.
- We will notify your Conveyancer and the real estate agent that your lender is ready to settle the transaction.
- Your Conveyancer will liaise with the seller’s Conveyancer to ensure the property is ready to hand over and agree on a settlement date.
- Once agreed upon, settlement will be booked for the mutually agreed date.
STEP 7 – Settlement day and handover of keys
The day has finally come for you to officially be homeowners and get the keys to your new property. Congratulations!
- Settlement will be booked in for a specific time on the agreed day and will be carried out by your Conveyancer.
- Once settlement has been completed, the property is officially yours. Your Conveyancer will notify the real estate agent, you, and us.
- It’s time to pick up the keys to your new home!
STEP 8 – After settlement day
You are now home owners. We are here to provide ongoing assistance and support in helping you manage your loan repayments going forward and for the life of your loan.
- We will keep in contact in the months following settlement to ensure your new lending is set up correctly.
- We will review your lending annually and make recommendations based on your changing requirements.
- We can also assist with maintenance of your lending – loan increases, repayment changes and so on.
