Sit back and relax. Let us do all the hard work!

Finding the right home loan lender and putting together a successful loan application is a complex process, but it’s a whole lot easier with Express Mortgage Market. Our professional credit advisers will guide you from start to finish, and best of all it’s a FREE service.

Home Loan Information – Application Process

Although each loan transaction is unique, most applications for mortgage finance involve seven clear steps to completion. Here is a flow chart that demonstrates the process for a typical Australian mortgage transaction:

• Make your initial loan enquiry online via our website, social media, or by phone
• ‘Fact Find’ interview with your Express Mortgage Market broker, online or in person.
• Express Mortgage Market submits your application to the lender of your choice
• The lender issues pre-approval to Express Mortgage Market OR asks for more information
• The lender values the security property (or properties)
• The lender issues Unconditional Approval to Express Mortgage Market
• You sign your loan agreement and obtain legal or financial advice where appropriate
• Loan ‘settlement occurs’: you obtain access to the funds at the same time the lenders’ mortgage over your security property becomes active
