Buying a home
And can be exciting and daunting at the same time. Your broker will ensure you’re armed with the all the information you need to help you on your way to owning your home.
At Onelife, your broker will do the leg-work for you.
They have access to hundreds of loans from a wide variety of lenders and will work with you to find the loan that suits your individual circumstances.
Take a look at our online calculators. This will help give you an idea of the amount you may be able to borrow and what the likely repayments may be. Once you have an idea of your options, give us a call or email us and we’ll continue the legwork for you and arrange a time to meet to present the right options in detail.
Refinancing Your Home Loan
As time marches on, situations change. Perhaps you’ve changed jobs? Or there’s a new addition to the family? Maybe you would just like a better rate? Maybe it’s the advent of school fees, or perhaps the kids have flown the coop? Or maybe that leaking shower or tired kitchen has just reached the end of its life. A shift in circumstances may mean it is time to revisit your home finances.
For many, the idea of refinancing a mortgage can be daunting. Fees, fixed versus variable interest rates and monthly charges all need to be considered. The right refinanced loan could help you pay off your mortgage faster and for less, clear unhealthy debt or help you upgrade and add value your home, all of which are steps in the right direction.
But where to start?

Investing In Property
It definitely pays to do your homework on the property market before you dive in, and we’re thrilled to be on board to help you when it comes to financing your decision. Recent share market slides, tight rental markets in most capital cities and a whiff of increase in property prices are seeing many mum and dad investors retreat to bricks and mortar.
Generally, property in Australia is still considered to be a sound investment due to steady and consistent increases over time. But it’s not a quick win. Property usually has a seven to ten year cycle, with highs, lows and steady stints in between. Fortunately, an ongoing housing shortage in Australia and a tax system that allows negative gearing on property (where any investment losses can be claimed as tax deductions) continue to favour housing as a solid, long-term investment.
Your broker is your best ally in finding the right lender and loan for your circumstances in this new environment. They can also wade through the many investment loan options on offer, leaving you more time to find the ideal property.
