See Why Us to read more about our points of difference.
A mortgage broker is a professional adviser that finds you the best loan for your financing needs. ‘Best’ is often more than just price, but can mean loan amount, loan features, loan structure, and most importantly, the ability of the lender to accept your unique scenario.
An exceptional mortgage broker should be focused on delivering three main things.

Using a Mortgage Broker has many distinct advantages to going directly to the bank. These advantages include:
Extensive product and lender choice. In turn, this gives you access to better rates, unique products, and more flexible policies.
Top brokers are problem solvers and know the policies of many banks, not just one. This means you will find a home for your scenario where your bank might get stuck.
Brokers offer more personalised service and are available when the bank is shut. You can pick your broker, but often you can’t pick your banker!
For complex loans and commercial loans, especially property development, banks also prefer to work with brokers because they know how to structure and package a deal where a client would have no time or get stuck
Often your branch based banker will change jobs, switch banks or get promoted, meaning you will be referred to a new banker who has to relearn your scenario each time. A mortgage broker usually stays with you for as long as they remain in the profession, and this is especially true where they are the principal of the business or accredited with a specific firm.
A Mortgage Broker is paid a fee from the bank for successfully settling your loan; this fee is usually a percentage of the loan size.
The service provided by the SF Capital Mortgage Broker is a professional service to ensure you achieve certainty of financing, on the most competitive terms possible and in a timely manner.
There is no charge for an initial assessment of your scenario. However, to be able to deliver our level of service and expertise, we charge an application fee if you instruct us to prepare and submit your application.
Additional fees may apply for construction loans, small loan sizes, expat loans, bridging loans, family guarantees, SMSF loans, purchasing in a company or trust, very complex structures or business lending.
