Extra $1000-$1500 Cashback from Home Loan Mortgage Broker (Refinance or Purchase) @ Lending Clinic

150

Are you on a 3%+ interest rate? Chances are we can get you a rate which is very close to 2.00% or even slightly under, with up to $4k cashback from the lender, plus up to $1500 cashback from us (as your friendly mortgage broker).

On a $500k home loan, a 1% reduction in interest rate equates to around $5k in yearly savings.

As we're new to OzBargain, we're offering the following BROKER-FUNDED CASHBACK for a limited time:

  • $500k-$749k loan: $1000
  • $750k+ loan: $1500
  • You need to still have the loan until the end of the lender's commission clawback/refund period, which is either 18 or 24 months. The broker cashback will be paid at this point.
  • The loan amount applicable will be based on the lender's commission calculation method, which is generally the amount net of redraw & offset.
  • Applicable for refinance or property purchase, as long as only 1 application is involved, without having to extend/renew the pre-approval, and without involving bridging loan or construction loan.

What about the bank/lender's offers?

Some banks/lenders are offering $2k-$6k cashbacks. Our $1k-$1.5k broker cashback is on top of the $2k-$6k cashback provided by the bank/lender.

There are often some trade-offs between interest rate and loan features, maximum loan amount, ability for the lender to approve your specific scenario, or the amount of documents/admin work required from you.

    This rate is usually fixed for 1 or 2 years max, good days for 3-5 years were long gone. of course, depends on how much you borrow too.

    • That's when you check the leaving fees and how long if any they lock you in for

      • Refinance costs usually add up to $500-$1000, much less than the $3k-$5.5k cashbacks :)
        No lock in period with a variable rate loan. Fixed rate may incur break cost if you leave during the fixed rate period, this will usually be determined with reference to the movement in the bank's cost of funding.

  • Isn't this just an advertisement?

    • Just because it's an advertisement doesn't mean that it is not a bargain.
      This broker is offering additional cash back on top of lenders cash back.

        There is a clawback clause

        • Most brokers that do cash back have a clawback clause.

  • isnt the standard cash back from banks now ~$3k for loan size ~500k ?how is this a deal if not everyone has a 750k+ sized loan

    • This is additional to that.

      • but what if we want 1 year fixed only ? are we tied to the bank/broker for at least 2 years?

        • The bank's cashback doesn't have a lock-in period and usually gets paid in 1-2 months. For the broker cashback, we pay it after 18-24 months depending on the bank. You can leave anytime but no extra broker cashback if you leave within the 18-24 months commission clawback period.

      Why aren’t you leveraging your equity and taking out 100% I/O loans and negatively gearing like a bandit?

      • You can do that, no problems :) Cashback on property purchase with Suncorp!

    • Hey there, St George gives $4k cashback for $250k loan. We as a broker gives another $1k for $500k+ loan, and $1500 for $750k+ loan (on top of what the bank offers). So you get a total of $5k for a $500k loan, $5.5k for a $750k loan.

    Can you match 1.89% with $2022 cashback?

    https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/680677

    • Hey there, it really depends on your loan amount. Suncorp has $3k cashback plus another $1k cashback from us if your loan amount is $500k, i.e. total $4k cashback instead of $2022 from Tic:Toc. Suncorp's broker clawback period is 18 months. So if you look at a timeframe of 18 months, on a $500k loan amount the extra $2k cashback is similar to 0.20% per year. So even though their lowest interest rate is 1.94%, it's almost as if you're only paying 1.74%.

      It depends on how you think about it and whether you want your loan to be a long-term loan or an 18-month loan then refinance again for another cashback from another lender.

      Tic:Toc unfortunately doesn't work with brokers, otherwise we could have given a broker cashback for them too.

      • Accuracy of that math depends on the exit fees after the 18 months though (but that obviously applies for almost any lender)

        What does a broker do for the client exactly if you don't mind me asking? Is it mainly recommending a suitable product or is there extra things too (ie assistance preparing application or something)?

        • You'll find that exit fees with most lenders are similar, banks typically charge around $350 discharge fee, with some non-bank lenders also charging around another $300 for a third party solicitor to process the discharge. The land title office will also charge a fee to deregister & re-register a new mortgage, in NSW this is around $300. Most of the time you can find a lender offering refinance cashback of $2k+ (more than the costs to refinance).

          We have access to 50+ lenders and can help find a lender to suit your requirements e.g. maximum borrowing power to buy another property, smallest possible deposit, fastest turnaround time for an urgent purchase, or lowest interest rate. So instead of talking to 50+ different banks/non-bank lenders, you just talk to 1 person and provide your payslips, bank statements etc 1 time. You fill in the application form 1 time and we then copy the data across to the lender's form. Also avoid multiple credit checks which can reduce your credit score :)

          • @Mortgage Broker: Is submitting financial docs / etc done only the once too? Or does that come later on with the bank directly once one is decided upon?

            Even without that, actually sounds quite convenient

            • @[Deactivated]: It's mostly done once :) Sometimes we try not too ask for too many documents so we may ask for the minimum when we review your indicative banks/loan options. We may then ask for a bit more documents for the specific bank you've decided to go with. But we're very organised so we don't ask for the same thing twice :)

              • @Mortgage Broker: You mention above a $500k example for Suncorp but original post says $750k, can you clarify eligibility and amounts? Also what's rates for lower LVR, ie 80%? Actually sounds quite decent if lower amounts are eligible too

                Regarding the St George offer do they have any similar cashback offerings for purchases?

                Edit: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/681529 apparently $3k cashback for new loan, can that be stacked with the $1k here?

                • @[Deactivated]: Hey there,
                  There are 2 cashbacks here, the cashback from Suncorp requires $750k loan amount. The cashback from us (the broker) requires $500k+ loan amount. These can be stacked.
                  Owner occupied rate with Suncorp at 80% LVR is 2.02%.

                  St George cashback is only for refinance.
                  Suncorp cashback can be for a purchase.

                  • @Mortgage Broker: Can other offers from the relevant banks be stacked or just these specific ones?

                    • @[Deactivated]: Others can :)
                      We just pay $1000-$1500 extra on top of the bank's cashback ($1k extra from us for $500k-$749k loan, $1500 extra from us for $750k+ loan).

  • So to be clear, if I have a $750k loan, with $300k in the offset, I receive no cashback?

    • You'll still get the lender's cashback. But for the broker cashback, it depends on how the lender calculates their commission, but typically it won't be applicable especially if you have the $300k in offset from day 1.

  • Just wondering what the ANZ’s broker clawback period is? 18 months or 24 months

  • Just messaged you privately. ANZ offers $3k cashback at the moment.
