Understanding investment loans is the first step in your journey. One important factor to consider is the interest rate, which can significantly impact your loan repayments over time. At Relax Home Loans, we help you compare both variable and fixed interest rate options so you can make an informed decision.

Understanding the Lending Process at Relax Home Loans

Step 1: Discovery Conversation

At Relax Home Loans, we begin your home loan journey with a friendly, in-depth conversation with your dedicated broker. Whether you’re buying your first home, investing, or refinancing, we listen closely to understand your goals, financial situation, and unique needs. We dive deep to get a complete picture, then start researching loan options tailored just for you. Our mission is to keep the process simple and stress-free, so we can get started as quickly as possible for you.

Step 2: Financial Assessment

With care and expertise, we thoroughly review your financial situation—your income, savings, assets, liabilities, and credit history. This helps us determine your borrowing capacity and estimate affordable repayments. We’ll also explore eligibility for benefits like interest rate discounts or first-home buyer grants. To make things clear, we’ll present a preliminary proposal, collaborating closely with you to refine it so it perfectly suits your needs.

Step 3: Strategy Meeting

Here, we craft a personalised plan. Your broker presents a handpicked selection of loan options from trusted lenders, tailored to your goals—be it a fixed-rate, variable-rate, offset, interest-only repayments, or a bridging loan. We break down the pros and cons of each approach in plain language. At Relax Home Loans, we aim to go above and beyond to ensure you feel empowered to make a decision that’s clearly in your best interest.

Step 4: Pre-Approval

Pre-approval gives you the confidence to shop for your dream home. We manage the entire process, collecting documents like pay slips, tax returns, and bank statements to secure your pre-approval. This clarifies your budget and strengthens your position in the property market, so you can move quickly without stress. With Relax Home Loans, we make this step seamless, freeing you to focus on finding the perfect property.
