This is the second time Inovayt has helped me purchase a property. Chris was responsive and helpful throughout the entire process, answering my questions and consistently providing options that suited my personal circumstances. Beyond securing the mortgage, Chris and the team continued to support me throughout the term of my previous loan, making sure I was always getting the best rate possible. I always felt that Chris genuinely wanted the best outcome and value for me, and worked hard to make it happen. Couldn’t recommend Inovayt more highly!

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Duane to purchase our first home. We were pretty hard customers as business owners, but he was incredibly efficient, kept us up-to-date with each stage, and worked tirelessly to secure us finance. Could not be happier and highly recommend Duane and the wider Inovayt team for all your financing needs!

It’s been slow and methodically completed, with them finding out of needs, what we felt comfortable doing and then thoroughly and transparently provided our options. They were very supportive and patient. There communication was on point and efficient

Couldn’t recommend Duane enough! Being first-home buyers, we had no idea what to expect going into the whole process, but Duane made everything so much easier. He was always happy to answer any questions we had, explained everything clearly and made sure we knew what was going on every step of the way. He went above and beyond to help us get into our first home and genuinely made the whole experience a lot less stressful than we expected. Really appreciate all the time and effort he put into helping us out. Couldn’t have asked for a better broker and would definitely recommend him to anyone looking to buy a home. Thanks again, Duane!

Mortgage Brokers in Melbourne – FAQs

Finance can often be tricky to get your head around. We know you generally have many questions that need answering, so we’ve put together our most asked questions for you.

How quickly can a mortgage broker in Melbourne secure loan approval?

Many Inovayt clients receive conditional approval within 24 to 48 hours, with some approvals possible in as little as 4 hours. Our finance brokers in Melbourne handle the paperwork and liaise directly with lenders, so you don’t waste time waiting in long queues or chasing updates.

Do mortgage brokers in Melbourne charge fees?

At Inovayt, our service is completely free for clients. As your home loan broker Melbourne families trust, we’re paid by the lender, not you. This means you get tailored advice, access to 40+ lenders, and expert guidance without worrying about hidden costs or added expenses.

Can a Melbourne mortgage broker help with refinancing?

Yes. If it’s been more than two years since your last mortgage review, our brokers in Melbourne can compare your current loan with other options. Refinancing could reduce your repayments, shorten your loan term, or unlock equity for renovations, investments, or other financial goals.

What’s the difference between a bank and a Melbourne mortgage broker?

Banks only offer their own loan products, while our mortgage brokers in Sydney, Brisbane and beyond compare loans from multiple lenders. This means you’re more likely to secure a competitive rate and flexible terms. Inovayt acts as your advocate, ensuring the lender and loan structure fit your needs, not theirs.

What deposit do I need to buy a home in Melbourne?

You may be able to purchase a property with as little as a 5% deposit if you qualify for a government guarantee scheme, which allows eligible buyers to avoid paying Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI).

However, many lenders generally prefer a 20% deposit, as this helps you avoid LMI altogether and may improve your loan terms. The right deposit amount depends on your financial situation, borrowing capacity, and the type of property you’re buying in Melbourne’s property market.

How much can I borrow with a Melbourne home loan broker?

Your borrowing capacity is usually around five to six times your annual income, but this varies based on your living expenses, existing debts, credit history, number of dependants and the lender’s assessment criteria.

Our Melbourne mortgage brokers will review your full financial position and compare lenders to determine your maximum borrowing power, helping you understand what price range is realistic before you start property hunting.

What government grants are available for Melbourne first-home buyers?

Eligible first-home buyers in Melbourne may be able to access the $10,000 First Home Owner Grant (FHOG) for new homes, along with potential stamp duty concessions or exemptions depending on the property value.

Some buyers may also qualify for federal government guarantee schemes that allow purchases with a smaller deposit. Eligibility criteria apply, so it’s important to review current thresholds and property price caps with our Melbourne mortgage advisors.

Can a mortgage broker in Melbourne help with pre-approval?

Yes. Our Melbourne mortgage broker services can guide you through the pre-approval process by gathering your financial documents, submitting your application to a suitable lender, and ensuring your borrowing capacity is accurately assessed.

Having pre-approval in place can strengthen your position when making an offer or bidding at auction, as it shows sellers and agents that your financing is well underway and your budget is clearly defined.

What’s the difference between pre-approval and formal approval?

Pre-approval is a conditional indication from a lender that you qualify to borrow up to a certain amount, based on your financial information. It does not guarantee final approval.

Formal approval, also known as unconditional approval, occurs after the lender has assessed the specific property you’re purchasing, completed a valuation, and confirmed all loan conditions have been satisfied.

How do Melbourne home loan brokers get paid?

Mortgage brokers in Melbourne are generally paid a commission by the lender after your loan settles. This usually includes an upfront commission and a smaller ongoing commission for the life of the loan.

These payments do not typically increase your loan cost, and brokers are required to disclose all commissions clearly so you understand how they are compensated.
