Common Questions

Bronte mortgage FAQs

We arrange pre-approval before the auction so you can bid with confidence. In Bronte, where campaigns attract strong competition, having unconditional finance ready gives you a clear advantage. Once you win, settlement typically occurs within 42 days and we liaise with your conveyancer throughout.

Heritage listings and properties in heritage conservation areas require careful consideration. Some lenders are hesitant about significant renovation constraints, while others are comfortable. We know which lenders suit which heritage scenarios and can match you to the right one based on the specific property you're buying.

Most lenders are comfortable lending up to 80% LVR on Bronte properties. For properties above $7.5M, some lenders cap LVR at 80%, meaning a 20% deposit is required. In some instances, the maximum LVR can be higher under an eligible LMI waiver special package. We'll find the right fit for your purchase.

Yes, construction and renovation loans are available. If you're planning a significant renovation or extension, we can set up a construction facility alongside your purchase loan. We work with lenders experienced in owner-builder and contract builder scenarios across the Sydney Eastern Suburbs.

A 20% deposit on the median house price is well over $1.3 million once you add stamp duty, so not everyone gets there with savings alone. Some professions can borrow up to 95% without paying LMI, family guarantees can cover part of the deposit, and for upgraders the answer is often equity in an existing property. There's more detail on our home loans page.

Quite possibly. A number of lenders waive LMI for certain professions, including doctors, lawyers and accountants, up to 95% of the property value. At Bronte prices that can be a saving of $100,000 or more. We arrange these regularly, so it's worth a conversation before you assume you need a 20% deposit. See specialist lending for more.

It's a stretch. Even units mostly sell well above the government scheme caps. Where we do see first home buyers succeed is with family guarantees or parental help with the deposit, and occasionally with an older, smaller unit. Our first home buyers page covers the options.
