The 5 stages of getting a home loan

Speed up your home loan journey with my 30 years of financial experience.

1. Consultation

Meeting to discuss your financial goals, budget, and borrowing options to understand what’s best for you.

2. Pre-Approval

I gather your financial info & submit it to the banks for a conditional approval, so you know your borrowing capacity.

3. Application

Once you've found a property, I finalize the loan application, collecting all documents and working with the bank.

4. Approval

The bank reviews and officially approves the loan, confirming all conditions and requirements are met.

5. Settlement

The final step is where funds are transferred, and ownership of the property is officially transferred to you.
