Can You Get A Home Loan Without Any Savings?
Yes! You can buy your dream home without any savings by applying for a guarantor loan!
A guarantor loan allows you to:
- Borrow up to 105% of the property price.
- Buy without a deposit.
- Consolidate minor debts into your home loan.
- Avoid paying LMI (Lenders Mortgage Insurance).
- Get a discounted interest rate.
Guarantor loans are also the only way to borrow more than 100% of the property price in Australia!
How do guarantor loans work?
- Your parents provide a limited guarantee secured over a term deposit or a property they own.
- One of our lenders approves your home loan as long as the security amount is adequate. You don’t need a deposit!
- All of the costs of the loan, including stamp duty and conveyancing fees, are covered by the loan.
- Once you have paid down your loan to less than 90% of the property value (ideally 80% or less) you can then apply to remove the guarantee.
