Finding the Right Home Loan

A Home Loan Broker for Every Kind of Buyer

The right broker is the one who has done your kind of loan before. Whatever your situation, we match you with the lenders whose policy actually fits it.

First Home Buyers

We simplify the whole process: choosing the right government scheme for your circumstances, confirming your deposit, stamp duty, and borrowing power, and guiding you from pre-approval to keys. Start with our first home buyers guide and the First Home Guarantee explainer.

Refinancing

Better rates and terms, negotiated for you. We handle the entire refinance, often reaching approval and settlement within weeks, with access to products that are not widely advertised.

Investment Loans

From your first investment property to a multi-property portfolio, we structure investment loans around your short, medium, and long-term goals, including equity release and SMSF lending.

Land and Construction Loans

Building comes with stricter lending terms and higher deposits. We manage the extra complexity, from deposit schemes to construction-to-permanent structures, so you can focus on the build. See how construction loans are assessed.

Self-Employed and Freelancers

We know which lenders understand ABN history, variable cash flow, and business structures, and our document checklist takes the pain out of the paperwork. More in our self-employed home loan tips.

Professional Package Loans

Some lenders offer sharper rates, lower deposits, and LMI waivers to doctors, lawyers, and other stable, high-income professionals. We confirm your eligibility and run the process while you concentrate on work.

The Short Answer

Why Use a Home Loan Broker Instead of Going to Your Bank?

Your bank can only offer its own products. A home loan broker compares 30+ lenders against your situation, negotiates the rate, structures the loan properly, and manages the application for you, at no cost to you, because brokers are paid by the lender at settlement.

The difference shows up in the outcome: the same borrower can be offered very different amounts, rates, and conditions by different lenders, and the gap is rarely visible from the outside. It also shows up in the workload. We handle the paperwork, the lender queues, and the back and forth, so approval does not depend on you chasing a call centre. If you are weighing it up, read our plain-English guides on what a mortgage broker does and broker vs bank.

Not sure where your situation fits? That is what the free 15-minute call is for.

The Home Loan Application Process, Start to Settled

Here is exactly what happens when you work with AFMS Group, so there are no surprises at any stage.

  1. Step 01

    Free 15-Minute Call

    We talk through your financial situation and property goals. No documents needed, no obligation, and appointments flex around you: in person at Martin Place, on video, or by phone, evenings and weekends included.

  2. Step 02

    Assessment and Strategy

    We assess your income, deposit, debts, and expenses the way a lender's credit team will, then design the loan structure around your goals, whether that is your first home, an upgrade, or an investment portfolio.

  3. Step 03

    Compare 30+ Lenders and Negotiate

    We shortlist the lenders whose policy fits your situation, negotiate rates and terms, and recommend the strongest option. You see the reasoning, not just the recommendation.

  4. Step 04

    Pre-Approval and Application

    Our document checklist makes onboarding painless. We package and lodge one complete application; pre-approvals often come back in one to three days, and full approvals typically land within four to eight weeks depending on the loan and lender.

  5. Step 05

    Approval to Settlement

    We drive the file through valuation, unconditional approval, and settlement, coordinating with your conveyancer and keeping you updated at every stage, with a four-hour reply time when you have questions.

  6. Step 06

    6 and 12-Month Follow-Ups

    The service does not stop at settlement. We review your loan at 6 and 12 months, re-check the market, and flag when refinancing or restructuring would leave you better off.

My name is on every loan we write. Clients come to us for the rate, but they stay because the structure is right, the communication is fast, and we are still reviewing their loan long after settlement.

Common Questions

All Your Home Loan Broker Questions

What types of home loans does AFMS Group specialise in?

We arrange loans for every kind of buyer: first home buyers, refinancers, property investors, land and construction loans, self-employed and freelancer applications, and professional package loans for high-income professionals such as doctors and lawyers. If your situation is complex, that is usually where a broker adds the most value.

How does using AFMS Group save time compared with going to a bank?

We do the legwork for you. We compare loans from 30+ lenders, negotiate rates and structures, prepare the paperwork, and manage pre-approval and approval directly with the lender. You avoid the back and forth with bank call centres, and your application lands complete the first time, which is what keeps approvals fast.

Do I need my documents ready before contacting AFMS Group?

No. The first consultation is obligation-free and needs no paperwork at all; it is a conversation about your situation and goals. If you decide to go ahead, we give you a simple document checklist and a guided onboarding process to kickstart the assessment.

How long does it take to get a home loan approved?

Pre-approvals often come back within one to three days, which confirms your borrowing power so you can start making offers. Full approval typically takes four to eight weeks depending on the loan type, your documentation, and the lender. Because we know which lenders are moving quickly at any given time, we route your application accordingly.

Can AFMS Group help self-employed borrowers and freelancers?

Yes. We work with lenders who understand ABN history, variable cash flow, and business structures, and we manage the extra documentation end to end. Self-employed loans are one of our specialisations, and having the application structured correctly upfront makes a significant difference to the outcome.

Can AFMS Group arrange professional package loans?

Yes. With access to 30+ lenders, we help lawyers, healthcare workers, financial specialists, and other eligible professionals secure competitive rates, lower deposits, or LMI waivers under professional packages. We confirm your eligibility, handle the criteria and documents, and negotiate the pricing.

Does AFMS Group charge fees, and are there any hidden costs?

No. Consultations and our broking service are at no cost to you; we are paid a commission by the lender when your loan settles. There are no hidden fees: we hold Australian Credit Licence 389087 and disclose our commissions and any lender fees to you upfront, as required.

Should I choose a fixed or variable rate home loan?

It depends on your circumstances. Fixed rates give repayment certainty but less flexibility; variable rates move with the market and usually allow extra repayments and offset accounts; split loans combine both. We model the options against your budget and goals in your consultation so the structure fits you, not the other way around.

Do I need to meet in person, or can everything be done online?

Completely up to you. Consultations can run in person at our Sydney CBD office at Martin Place, on video, or by phone, weekdays 8am to 8pm with weekend appointments available. Most loans can be arranged fully online if that suits you better.
