Get the same interest rates as an Australian citizen!

As a foreign citizen living in Australia on a 457 visa, you will not pay a higher interest rate than people who are Australian citizens.

In fact, some of our lenders offer significant discounts and interest rates below the bank’s Standard Variable Rate (SVR). If you are applying for a smaller loan amounts you can still qualify for competitive basic mortgages.

How can we get your loan approved?

Our mortgage brokers specialise in lending to people living in Australia on a 457 visa or other types of work visas. That’s because we have special arrangements with Australian lenders who want to work with 457 visa holders.

Our lenders accept any of the following visa types as well:

100, 103, 114, 115, 116, 119, 120, 121, 124, 132, 134, 136, 138, 139, 143, 151, 155, 157, 159, 160, 161, 162, 163, 164, 165, 173, 175, 176, 186, 187, 188, 189, 190, 200, 201, 203, 204, 300, 309, 310, 401, 403, 405, 411, 415, 416, 420, 422, 423, 426, 428, 457, 461, 475, 487, 489, 495, 496, 801, 804, 820, 835, 836, 838, 855, 856, 857, 858, 864, 884, 885, 886, 887, 888, 892, 893, 995.

Most lenders require 1.3x to 1.5x interest cover to approve a loan but some of our lenders can consider a 1x interest cover if you have a strong tenant and your property is in a good location.

Is Foreign Investment Review Board Approval (FIRB) approval required?

FIRB approval may still be required depending on your situation. If you’re buying the property with a spouse who’s an Australian citizen and the legal ownership structure is joint tenants, then Australian government approval isn’t necessary.

You can also buy an investment property and, if it’s a newly-built dwelling, you won’t usually be required to sell the property when you leave Australia.

We’ve lent more than $4 billion+ Australia-wide.

  • They walked us through the process step by step

    We would like to say thank you to Hank from Home Loan Experts for all his help in getting us a guarantor loan.

    We were really unsure if we would ever get an approval for a home loan, but Hank immediately knew the right lender to approach for our situation, and made the whole process simple…

    We would definitely recommend Home Loan Experts to anyone. Thanks again to Hank and the team from Home Loan Experts for making it possible for us to own our first home.

  • A very friendly, professional and helpful team

    The team was very friendly, professional, helpful and went out of their way to get the right loan that was suitable for us… I recommend this service for those who find it very hard to purchase a property going directly to a bank. Thank you Home Loan Experts, you have finally given my family and me the opportunity to own a beautiful home.

  • A lot smoother and less stressful than having to deal with banks as an individual

    Our mortgage broker was very personable and made us feel like he went above and beyond to assist us in getting our home loan. He had a great knowledge of guarantor home loans which set our minds at ease. He was happy to answer any questions even outside business hours and responded in a professional and timely manner. As a second home buyer I would recommend going through the home loan experts as this process was a lot smoother and less stressful than having to deal with banks as an individual. I would especially recommend Hoa to others.

You have exceeded my expectations in terms of results and have done this with very short notice. You are an asset to your company and a role model to your profession… I already have and will continue to recommend your services to friends and family.

  • So easy to speak to no matter how stressful the situation

    We are both so grateful to Amine for all of his hard work and great advice over the past year! It’s been such a long journey… We are starting to settle into our new home in Trentham now. It is just so beautiful and relaxing! We really love it and are so happy with our purchase. Amine was right all along – things happen for a reason! Thank you Amine for always being there for us.

  • He even made a guarantor loan from our parents seem effortless!

    After the roller coaster ride of going cap in hand to the bank manager, only to be turned away… we found Tony. What a refreshing change! Within a 2 week time frame, we had approval and were able to follow the normal approval process to get the loan…. With Tony’s inside knowledge on how lenders think he was able to approach the bank with an excellent case and really put us in a great position in the lender’s eyes…. We recommend Tony and Home Loan Experts strongly and will be using them for our next purchase…
