Option Home Loans - Get your head around home loans

“Buying your own home is one of the most important financial decisions you’ll ever make. Important things to consider before applying for a home loan are (1) how much do you need to save for a home loan? (2) choosing your home loan (3) check your lender is licensed, and (4) tips once you get a mortgage.” (moneysmart.gov.au)

“Before you start looking for a property to buy, you need to get your finances in order. Remember to consider extra costs like stamp duty, legal fees, lender’s mortgage insurance, land and water rates, home and contents insurance and repairs when working out if you can afford a home loan.” (moneysmart.gov.au)

For example, our home repayment calculator gives you an estimate of what your weekly, fortnightly or monthly loan repayments will be. You will also see what the total interest payments are over the life of your loan including the total repayment figure.

Save as much as you can

“Finding smart ways to manage your money will help you save for a home. The bigger your deposit, the less you have to borrow, and the more you will save in interest. Also, the bigger your deposit is, the lower your loan to value ratio (LVR) will be. This is the amount of the loan divided by the purchase price (or appraised value) of the property. If your LVR is over 80%, you will be charged lenders’ mortgage insurance, and some lenders will even apply a higher interest rate to your loan. Saving a bigger deposit will help you avoid these extra costs.” (moneysmart.gov.au)
