Home Loans

Buy your First Home, Next Home or Dream Home sooner with a Home Loan

At Sum Finance, we understand that buying a home is one of the most significant decisions you will make. Whether you are a first-time buyer or a seasoned investor, our goal is to help you access Home Loan options from banks and lenders across Australia. With a variety of choices tailored to your needs, we simplify the process of applying for a home loan so you can focus on finding your perfect property. Our team is here to guide you through each step, ensuring a smooth journey to homeownership.

When considering Home Loan options, understanding the interest rate is crucial. Interest rates can be fixed or variable, each offering distinct advantages. A fixed interest rate home loan provides stability in repayments, protecting you from market fluctuations. Alternatively, variable home loan rates might offer more flexibility and potential savings if interest rates decrease. At Sum Finance, we help you weigh these options based on your financial situation, ensuring you choose the rate that best suits your needs.

Another important aspect of buying a home is calculating home loan repayments. This involves considering your borrowing capacity and the loan amount you wish to secure. Your credit history plays a pivotal role here; a strong credit history can lead to interest rate discounts and more favourable terms. We assist you in understanding how your credit history affects your application, helping you prepare the necessary documentation such as bank statements and proof of income.

Lenders mortgage insurance (LMI) is another factor to consider, particularly if your loan to value ratio (LVR) is high. LMI protects lenders in case of default, allowing you to borrow a larger percentage of the property’s value. We explain how LMI works and whether it applies to your situation, helping you make informed decisions about your Home Loan application.

Before applying for a home loan, it's beneficial to get pre-approved. Home Loan pre-approval gives you a clearer picture of your borrowing capacity and strengthens your position when making an offer on a property. Pre-approval involves an assessment of your financial situation, taking into account factors like your income, expenses, and existing debts. At Sum Finance, we offer a streamlined application process for pre-approval, allowing you to approach the property market with confidence.

Stamp duty and other associated costs can impact your overall budget when buying a home. We provide guidance on these additional expenses, ensuring you're fully prepared for the financial commitments involved. By understanding all aspects of the property market, including fees like stamp duty, you can better manage your finances and plan for the future.

An offset account is another feature that can enhance your Home Loan experience. By linking an offset account to your loan, you can reduce the interest payable on your Home Loan by offsetting it against funds in the account. This can lead to significant savings over time and help you pay off your mortgage faster.

At Sum Finance, we are dedicated to helping everyday Australians and high net worth individuals navigate the complexities of home loans. Our expertise ensures that you have access to the best Home Loan options available, tailored specifically to your needs.

Faith Wignall

Richard was very helpful with promptly gathering the options to suit our budget at every step of the purchasing process. From initial discussions, to pre-approval, to purchasing, we were presented with the most competitive lending options that suited our evolving financial needs. This allowed us to feel confident knowing our finances were in order, to focus on the property search. Once we found the property that met our family's needs, we were able to move quickly to purchase. We managed to secure it at a lower price, so due to the lower borrowing requirement, Richard presented an even better loan option more favourable to our situation. Richard offered measured guidance, he listened to our needs and was prompt and efficient, while remaining calm and approachable, which put us at ease through the whole potentially daunting, process. We are grateful for Richards expertise, guidance and swift action to get us set up on our home owning journey.
