Loans for Lawyers

Banks can only offer their own products. At Premier Path Finance, we compare a wide range of lenders to help you find a loan that suits your goals and circumstances.
We do the research, paperwork and negotiations on your behalf, making the process simple, stress-free and easy to understand.
Currently over 80% of loans in Australia are provided through a broker instead of directly at the bank, due to the options a broker can provide.

There is no cost to you for using a broker.
We are paid by the lender once your loan settles, which means you won't pay any additional fees and there is no impact on your interest rate or loan terms. Our service is designed to make the process easier by doing the research, comparing lenders and managing the paperwork on your behalf.
With Premier Path Finance, you receive expert advice and support at no extra cost, while we do the hard work for you.

Your borrowing capacity depends on factors including:
• Your income
• Existing debts and expenses
• Deposit amount
• Employment type
• Credit history
We'll assess your situation and help you understand your borrowing power before you start looking for a property.

Many lenders allow eligible borrowers to purchase with as little as a 5% deposit. A larger deposit may provide more lender options and help reduce costs such as Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI).
We'll guide you through your options and explain exactly what you'll need.

Pre-approval is an indication from a lender of how much you may be able to borrow before you purchase a property.
Pre-approval can help you shop with confidence and understand your budget. We'll manage the entire process and liaise with the lender on your behalf.

Timeframes vary depending on the lender and your circumstances. Many approvals are completed within a few days to several weeks.
Our team keeps the process moving and handles the communication with lenders, making everything easier for you.

Absolutely.
Buying your first home can feel overwhelming, but we'll guide you through every step. We'll explain the process in plain English, help you understand your borrowing capacity and determine whether you're eligible for grants and concessions.

Depending on your circumstances and location, you may be eligible for:
• First Home Owner Grants
• Stamp duty concessions
• Home Guarantee Scheme initiatives
We'll help you understand what support may be available and whether you qualify.

Yes.
A guarantor loan may allow eligible borrowers to purchase with little or no deposit while avoiding LMI.
Using a family guarantee in some cases can cover the full purchase cost of a property, inclusive of stamp duty (105% lend), with identical loan terms to a standard loan.
We'll explain how guarantor loans work and whether they're suitable for your circumstances.

Lenders Mortgage Insurance is generally required when you borrow more than 80% of the property's value.
LMI protects the lender, not the borrower. The cost varies depending on the size of your loan and deposit. We can help you understand whether it applies and explore options to minimise or avoid it.

• Lower your interest rate
• Reduce repayments
• Consolidate debts

We'll compare lenders and manage the refinancing process from start to finish.

If your property's value has increased or you've paid down your loan, you may be able to access equity for:

We assist investors with:
• Investment property loans
• Equity release

Depending on your circumstances, some lenders offer low-deposit home loans and government schemes may also help eligible buyers enter the market sooner.
We'll explain your options and help you find a pathway into home ownership.

A fixed rate provides certainty by locking in your interest rate for a set period.
A variable rate can change over time and often offers greater flexibility, including offset accounts and extra repayments.
We'll explain the pros and cons and help you choose the right loan structure.

An offset account is a transaction account linked to your home loan.
The balance in the account reduces the amount of interest charged on your loan, potentially helping you save thousands over the life of your mortgage.

A construction loan is designed for people building a new home.
Funds are generally released in stages throughout the building process rather than in one lump sum.
We'll guide you through the process and coordinate with the lender and builder to help everything run smoothly.

Settlement is when ownership of the property is officially transferred and the loan funds are released.
We work closely with your lender, solicitor and conveyancer to ensure everything runs smoothly and keep you informed every step of the way.

We recommend reviewing your home loan every 12 to 24 months or whenever your circumstances change.
Regular reviews can help ensure you're still getting a competitive rate and the right loan features.

Multiple loan applications can impact your credit file.
That's why we carefully assess your situation first and recommend suitable lenders before submitting an application, helping you avoid unnecessary enquiries.
