Customer stories

What our clients are saying

Common questions from Emu Heights buyers and owners

Do you have an office in Emu Heights?

No. Our office is on Park Street in Glenbrook, about 10 minutes away, and walk-ins are welcome. We can also do everything by phone and video.

Is it worth refinancing if my loan is only a year old?

Often it's better to wait unless the saving is large. We usually suggest holding a loan for about 18 months before moving, and we'll do the sums with you.

Do you charge a fee?

No. The lender pays us when your loan settles.

What lenders look at on Emu Heights properties

A few local things are worth checking before you sign:

  • Flooding and overland flow. The Nepean River runs along the north of the suburb, and Penrith Council's overland flood study covers Emu Heights. If a property sits below the flood planning level, the council notes it on the section 10.7 planning certificate in the contract. A lender may then want a report showing the property's height, so read the certificate before you exchange and get an insurance quote early.
  • Bushfire-prone land. Homes towards the escarpment can be mapped as bushfire-prone. The certificate tells you, and the NSW RFS has an online map to check first.
  • Extensions. Work done without council approval can cause trouble at valuation. If yours was done a while ago, find the paperwork before you refinance.

The lender pays us when your loan settles, so there's no broker fee.

Who we help in Emu Heights

We compare home loans from 70+ lenders, and the same broker stays with you from the first chat to settlement.

Families refinancing

The median mortgage repayment here was $2,167 a month at the 2021 Census. As a rule of thumb, we think a switch is worth it when it saves $300 to $500 a month or more. Changing lenders usually costs around $800 to $1,000, and if your loan is under about 18 months old it's often better to wait, so we check that first. We'll review your loan for free and only suggest refinancing if the numbers stack up after costs.

Renovating, extending or adding on

In a suburb where most homes are family houses and few come up for sale, plenty of owners would rather extend than move. If you've built up equity, lenders may let you borrow against it for a renovation, and we can often sort that out at the same time as a refinance. Lenders value the finished home on a bigger job, so we'll talk through the plans before you sign with a builder.

Upsizing

Moving from a smaller place in the Penrith area to a family home here? If you're selling and buying at the same time, a bridging loan can cover the gap between settlements. We set these up regularly and we'll show you the sums, including the buffer lenders want, before you commit.

First home buyers

Emu Heights houses have sold for about $1.16 million over the past year, which is above the $1 million line where the NSW first home buyer stamp duty concession stops. With so few units here, many first home buyers start next door in Emu Plains, where units and townhouses have sold for about $846,000. The 5% Deposit Scheme lets eligible buyers purchase with a 5% deposit and no lenders mortgage insurance, up to a $1.5 million cap in Sydney. Our first home buyer home loans service works through what applies to you.

Who you'll deal with

You'll deal with a broker from our Glenbrook team, the same person from start to finish. Our Glenbrook office on Park Street takes walk-ins, or we can do everything by phone and video.
