The lending landscape is so competitive, that a lot of lenders focus their attention on winning new business and perhaps forget about delighting their existing customers.

If you're wondering whether you're sitting on the best deal from your lender, then - unless your loan is brand new, or you've actually spoken to them (or us) - chances are you could do better.

Get in touch with us to review whether your loan is structured the right way and whether you're getting the best possible offer.

We'll then be able to guide you on how to negotiate with your current lender, or advise you whether it's time to switch lenders altogether.

If you ‘wish’ to purchase property in 2021, we can help with the planning.

Talking about money with your partner may not seem very appealing. ⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But do you know what's even less romantic? Finding out you're not financially compatible and letting this cause friction in your relationship.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If one of you is a big spender, while the other is more frugal, then money may become a source of contention.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It's a great idea to discuss your attitudes to debt, whether you share the same level of financial literacy, and to define your financial goals together.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And don't worry, 'different' doesn't mean it can't work out - it just means you need to communicate well and create systems so that you don't clash over money.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Have you ever found yourself financially incompatible with a loved one? How did you approach it?

We've helped a record number of people get on top of their finances this week by reviewing their home loans. Interestingly, this doesn't always mean switching to another lender.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Sometimes it's simply about advocating for you to get a better deal from your current bank.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Whether this means shaving years off your mortgage, reducing repayments, or paying less interest - it is never a bad thing to run a health check on your home loan.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

We like to look for silver linings in amongst the shades of grey...and we've found a beauty!

Lifestyle inflation - you know that thing where no matter how much you're earning, it seems as though your disposable income stays about the same?

2020 has given us the perfect opportunity to pinpoint where our money is going.

And once you know where it's going, you can make informed decisions about whether you want to send it somewhere else.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Et voila! You'll be on your way to avoiding the dreaded - but all too common - lifestyle inflation.

Who's planning to show their money who's boss?
