When looking to purchase a home either as a single or couple, choosing the right home loan options can be very overwhelming. Sorting through a myriad of home loan options from different lenders and having the time or resources to sift through them all can be daunting. That is where a mortgage broker comes in. In the June 2024 quarter, 73.7 % of all new home loans in Australia were written by mortgage brokers. This is a significant contribution to helping Australians achieve their home aspirations.
Many borrowers choose the services of a mortgage broker for peace of mind. According to MFAA CEO, Anja Pannek, “Australians are living through a cost-of-living crisis with every dollar counting in household budgets. It’s essential they have the right support and guidance when it comes to their home loan,”.
