1. Consultation with Your Finance & Mortgage Broker
Your refinancing journey begins with an initial consultation. Instead of discussing a property purchase, your Finance & Mortgage Broker will focus on your reasons for refinancing—such as securing a better interest rate, accessing equity, consolidating debts, or adjusting loan features. They will explain the refinancing process, review your current loan, and identify opportunities to improve your loan structure or save on repayments.
2. Financial & Loan Review
Your broker will conduct a full review of your current financial position and existing home loan. This includes assessing your income, expenses, assets, liabilities, credit history, and available home equity. They will also analyse your current loan’s interest rate, fees, and features to see where changes could benefit you. Key terms like loan-to-value ratio (LVR), break costs, and refinancing fees will be explained so you can make informed decisions.
3. Comparing Refinancing Options
With your financial information in hand, your broker will compare a range of refinancing options from multiple lenders. They will consider factors such as lower interest rates, reduced fees, more flexible repayment terms, or features like offset accounts and redraw facilities. You’ll also discuss whether a fixed, variable, or split loan structure suits your future plans. The goal is to find a refinancing solution that meets your financial needs now and in the years ahead.
4. Conditional Approval
Once a preferred option is chosen, your broker will seek conditional approval from the lender. This step provides an early indication that your refinance is likely to be approved, subject to property valuation and final checks. It gives you clarity on your new repayments and confidence to proceed.
5. Submitting the Refinancing Application
Your broker will prepare and submit your refinancing application, ensuring all required documents—such as identification, income evidence, and current loan statements—are included. They will liaise directly with the new lender and your existing lender to coordinate the discharge of your current loan. Throughout this stage, your broker will keep you updated and address any lender queries.
6. Loan Approval & Loan Agreement
Once your refinance is formally approved, your broker will guide you through the new loan contract. They will explain the terms and conditions, confirm settlement figures, and ensure you understand your new repayment schedule and loan features. If any additional steps—such as setting up offset accounts—are required, your broker will arrange them.
7. Loan Settlement & Transition
On settlement day, your new lender will pay out your existing loan in full, and your new loan will take effect. Your broker will confirm the settlement has been completed and ensure your accounts are set up correctly. From here, you’ll begin making repayments under your new loan, ideally benefiting from lower costs, better features, or both.

Carl has been amazing to work with. He was on the ball straight from the start with knowing all the information I would need to provide. He was quick to respond while others would not return communication for weeks. He managed to secure me a great product in a short amount of time, even while we are on opposite sides of the country. I highly recommend getting in touch with Carl, you won't look back.
