Request a Free Buyer DiscussionAlready have a Contract of Sale?

You can start a Free Buyer Discussion before you have found a property or received a Contract of Sale. Richard provides conveyancing information; your lender, qualified mortgage broker or the relevant authority deals with loan products, borrowing capacity and programme eligibility.

Start with your questions

A general preparation journey

  1. Consider your budget and the costs of buying.
  2. Speak with your lender or a qualified mortgage broker about your borrowing position.
  3. Clarify the meaning and conditions of any indicative assessment or pre-approval.
  4. Search for a property within the position discussed with your lender.
  5. Speak with Richard about the contract before making an offer, signing or bidding.
  6. Work with your lender on its formal approval requirements for the chosen property.

Questions about loan approval

Pre-approval does not guarantee that the lender will approve a loan for a particular property. Ask your lender what further checks or conditions remain. Read the explanation from ASIC Moneysmart.

Ask Richard what contract deposit and payment dates apply, and ask your lender about the funds and timing required for your loan. The Conveyancing Team does not provide credit, mortgage broking or financial advice.

Discuss your contract before signing

Talk to Richard about making your Contract subject to loan approval.

Ask about the wording, timing and suitability of any proposed condition before making an offer, signing or bidding.
