Stepping into the property market for the first time can be a thrilling yet daunting experience. First Home Buyers are faced with a myriad of decisions, from choosing the right property to securing a loan that suits their financial situation. That's where Rizon Finance comes in. Based in Bannockburn, we are dedicated Mortgage & Finance Brokers, committed to guiding First Home Buyers through the intricate process of buying their first home.
Choosing Rizon Finance means you'll have access to an extensive network of banks and lenders across Australia. This access ensures that you can compare a wide range of home loan options, from those with the lowest interest rates to those that offer features like offset accounts. Whether you're after a variable interest rate that offers flexibility or a fixed interest rate for stability in your repayments, we've got you covered.
For First Home Buyers, understanding the details of lenders mortgage insurance (LMI), loan to value ratio (LVR), and the impact of your credit history is crucial. LMI can be an additional cost if your deposit is less than 20% of the property’s value, impacting your borrowing capacity. However, Rizon Finance can navigate these waters for you, finding loan options that might allow you to save on LMI or capitalise it onto the loan itself.
Another essential consideration is the first home owner grants (FHOG) and other state-specific incentives, such as stamp duty concessions, which can significantly reduce the upfront cost of buying your first home. Our experts will help you understand what you're eligible for and assist in the application process, ensuring you're not missing out on any benefits.
Interest rate discounts and special offers for First Home Buyers can make a significant difference in the long run.
