Mortgage Broker Brisbane

Using a mortgage broker, like Alpha1 Financial Solutions, helps you get local expertise and personalised service. We understand the Brisbane property market and provide tailored advice to help you find the best mortgage options. Our brokers compare loans from multiple lenders to secure competitive rates and terms that suit your financial goals.

Yes, it is better to get a mortgage from mortgage brokers. While banks offer their own loan products, a mortgage broker provides access to a broader range of loan options from various lenders. Working with Alpha 1 Financial means you benefit from professional guidance, personalised loan comparisons, and potentially more favourable terms than a single bank might offer.

A mortgage broker acts as an intermediary between you and potential lenders. We assess your financial situation, provide loan options from various lenders, and guide you through the application process to secure the best possible mortgage that aligns with your financial situation and growth goals. Unlike banks, mortgage brokers must adhere to Best Interest Duties legislation. This means we are legally obligated to provide advice that meets your objectives, financial situation, and needs, ensuring that we act in your best interests at all times when offering recommendations.

At Alpha 1 Financial Solutions, our services are typically free for borrowers. We are compensated by the lender once your loan is settled. This allows you to receive expert advice and assistance throughout the mortgage process without incurring direct costs. 

Some lenders may require payments of various sorts through the process such as valuations or application fee but this is charged at settlement.

Yes, we offer virtual meetings and consultations to accommodate your schedule and preferences. Whether you prefer phone calls, video conferences, or email communication, we provide prompt communication, making the process convenient and accessible for everyone.

Yes we can assist with credit impaired borrowers and can also assist with credit repair and removal of adverse events on credit files. We’ll explore lending options suited to your circumstances and advise on steps to improve your loan eligibility.

The mortgage process can vary, but generally takes between 2 and 4 weeks from first consultation and application to approval. We take the time to thoroughly assess your situation and understand your goals to expedite the process and keep you updated throughout.

Getting started is simple. You can contact us via phone, email or our website to schedule an initial consultation in which we will discuss your financial situation and property goals. After this, we will schedule a thorough consultation to assess your financial position and work with you to find and secure the best mortgage for your needs.

We will request you to provide a number of supporting documents such as payslips, evidence of debts and assets and make an accurate assessment of your situation.

Absolutely. We have a dedicated First Home Buyer finance team that specialises in helping first-time home buyers navigate the whole process. Our experienced team will guide you through every step, from understanding your borrowing capacity to accessing and applying for government grants and subsidies like the First Home Owner Grant.

A fixed-rate mortgage locks in your interest rate for a set period, providing repayment certainty. A variable-rate mortgage means your interest rate can fluctuate with market conditions, which can lower or increase your repayments over time. At Alpha1 Financial Solutions, we can help you choose the best type of rate for your circumstances, financial situation and long term goals. 

A mortgage broker streamlines the home loan process by handling the research, paperwork, and negotiations on your behalf. At Alpha1 Financial Solutions, we assess your financial situation, compare loan options from multiple lenders, and manage the application process, saving you time and reducing stress. With our deep understanding of lender requirements, we can also help you position yourself for a successful application by identifying which lenders are most likely to find your situation attractive based on their specific lending policies.

While not mandatory, obtaining a pre-approval can strengthen your position when making an offer on a property. It confirms your borrowing capacity and shows sellers you’re a serious buyer. Pre-approval will also give you confidence when making an offer on your dream property!
