The lender pays us when your loan settles, so our advice costs you nothing.

Hawkesbury Heights loans usually come down to the family budget, the timing of parental leave and what you can build on the block. We help with each of them, and with first homes.
Lenders count childcare, school costs and every car loan. We set your numbers out the way lenders read them, so there are no surprises at approval.
Lenders differ a lot on parental leave income. We find the ones that will count your return-to-work salary, and show you what to get from your employer.
Adding a bedroom or a second living area on a bushfire-prone block? We'll match you with a construction lender and plan the loan around the BAL rating.
Whatever you’re trying to buy, build or restructure — there’s a lender on our panel for it.
Buying your first home? We'll walk you through the 5% deposit scheme, the stamp duty concessions and what your budget can realistically buy in the suburbs you're looking at.

At the 2021 Census the median Hawkesbury Heights mortgage repayment was $2,167 a month, and household incomes were well above the NSW figure. Lenders look past the income. They count childcare fees, private school costs, every car loan and the limit on every credit card, then test your repayments at about 3 percentage points above the actual rate. In a suburb where a third of households run three or more cars, those car loans can cut what you can borrow more than people expect.
We'll go through your spending the way a lender will and show you where the borrowing limit really is. If you already own here, a refinancing review is free. Loans taken out a few years ago are often priced well above what new customers get, and we'll only suggest a switch if it saves you money after costs.
With this many young families, plenty of Hawkesbury Heights borrowers are on parental leave when they apply, or about to be. Some lenders will count the salary you'll return to, with a letter from your employer confirming the date and the hours. Others want you back at work first, or will only use your leave pay. Going back part-time changes the numbers again.
If you're planning a baby and a move in the same year, talk to us early. A pre-approval before your leave starts can be simpler than one during it. Compare home loans from 70+ lenders with us in one go.
Plenty of families here extend rather than move. Lenders fund that in a few ways: a top-up on your existing loan for smaller jobs, or a construction loan for a bigger extension or a new build, where the money is paid to the builder in stages. On bushfire-prone land, the bushfire attack level (BAL) rating sets how you have to build, and a higher rating means higher building costs. Get the BAL assessment and builder's quote first, then we'll size the loan around the real cost.
Houses in Hawkesbury Heights have mostly sold for around $1 million this year, from very few sales. That puts many of them at or just over the top of the NSW first home buyer stamp duty concession band (over $800,000 and under $1 million), so a few thousand dollars on the price can decide whether you get reduced duty. The government's 5% Deposit Scheme can let you buy with a 5% deposit and no lenders mortgage insurance, up to the price cap for the area, and we'll check the cap for the exact property. Our first home buyer home loans service covers every scheme, the real upfront cost and a pre-approval before you bid.
You'll talk to a real person. Justin Leaney, our principal, is a Blue Mountains local with more than 15 years in lending, and the same person stays with your loan from the first chat to settlement. Glenbrook takes walk-ins, and Windsor is by appointment.
