It depends on the property price, the lender and your circumstances. Deposits under 20% may involve lenders mortgage insurance (LMI), and some government initiatives may help eligible buyers reduce the deposit required.
Federal and state initiatives change over time and have eligibility criteria. We’ll explain which programs may be relevant to your situation and how they interact with your loan.
Pre-approval is a lender’s indication of how much it may lend you. It’s not a guarantee, but it can help you search within a realistic range and act quickly when you find the right property.
Timeframes vary by lender and complexity. Pre-approval can take days to a few weeks; formal approval follows once you’ve found a property and the lender has assessed it.
