The signs of a healthy home loan

We can help you work out whether your current home loan deal is costing you too much in a moment – but first, here’s how much you could save.

Make sure you have a good rate

With the recent RBA announcement keeping the cash rate on hold at a historic low of 0.1%, now is the time to refinance. But never assume this means you automatically have your lender’s best rate, or the best rate on the market for that matter.

You can easily find out if you could be on a better rate and saving money by refinancing in just a few minutes, simply by

Make sure your signed up to receive notifications of rate changes

Don’t settle for the ‘set-and forget’ approach to your home loan. If you sign up to our loanScore and opt in for rate change notifications, we will send you an email every time your lender’s rate has changed so you can take action.

But it’s also so much more than this.

Think of loanScore as a free check-up for your home loan. It helps you understand whether your home loan is in good health. The lower your score, the higher the chance that you could save.

Getting your loanScore is super easy and only takes 2 minutes (less than the time it takes to blend a green juice!). All you have to do is:

  • Fill in your loan details
  • Get your loanScore
  • See how much you could save
  • Set a savings threshold for alerts
  • Take action easily

Take advantage of available home loan features

Does your home loan offer features like a mortgage offset account, which helps you pay less interest? Does it offer a redraw facility or even let you make additional payments on your home loan without being charged a fee?

Maybe you don’t have the features you need? There might be plenty of other products out there that will deliver, so why not shop around? Speak to one of our

Are you actively managing your home loan?

The answer is probably no – who has the time?

We do. In fact, that is all we do here at
. Our job does not stop when we refinance, renegotiate or settle a home loan for our customers. If we find opportunities where customers can save, our experienced brokers can help negotiate better deals for them. So, why not let us manage your home loan?

If you follow these easy check-up rules, you can be sure you’re never paying more than you should on your home loan, spending less time worrying about it (and more time at F45!).

Australians are on the whole a pretty health-conscious nation. Not just in the way we live and eat, but more so now as we all take steps to keep ourselves, our families and our loved ones safe and healthy during COVID-19.

But Aussies’ bodies aren’t the only thing we should treat as a temple that needs regular check ups — we should think the same way about our home loan.

Why? Because saving money on your home loan might be what allows you to actually buy a temple one day.

So we can all agree, we know what a healthy body looks like – but do you know what a healthy home loan looks like?

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Jake de Ruyter on our home loan application, and I couldn’t recommend him highly enough to anyone looking to finance a new home. From his lightning-fast response times to his extensive knowledge across every stage of the process, Jake has been a breath of fresh air during what can be a very stressful period. He made sure we understood each step clearly and took the time to explain anything we weren’t familiar with in a way that genuinely made sense. Jake went above and beyond to find the best option for our specific situation, and his dedication has truly set him apart. We will absolutely be using Jake for all future finance needs. Highly recommended

We chose Paul as our mortgage broker because, as fellow Kiwis, we wanted someone who truly understood us and how we work - and we’re so glad we did. His communication was exceptional from start to finish, always quick to respond (even to our many questions!) and incredibly clear throughout the entire process. Paul secured our loan super quickly and guided us through each step with confidence and ease. Buying a home in Australia can feel overwhelming, but he made everything feel straight forward and stress-free. We would recommend Paul all day long to anyone looking to purchase a home in Australia, and we will absolutely use him again when the time comes. Thank you, Paul - you’ve been amazing.

When seeking for a loan for my unconventional lending requirements (via a trading trust), none of the Big 4 nor regular brokers could help. I'm glad I found Jesse who has a thorough understanding of my requirements and it has been a pleasant and seamless experience to have my loan organised by Jesse until settlement. A well deserved 5 stars review from me!!!

Highly Recommend Paul Davey – Exceptional Mortgage Broker We worked with Paul Davey on a very complex mortgage application, and we honestly couldn’t have asked for a better broker. Paul worked incredibly hard for us from start to finish — he was patient, knowledgeable, and relentless in finding solutions when things got complicated. His communication was outstanding, always keeping us updated and making sure we understood every step of the process. It’s clear he truly cares about his clients and goes above and beyond to achieve the best outcome. We’re extremely grateful for everything Paul did for us and would recommend him without hesitation to anyone looking for a dedicated and trustworthy mortgage broker.
