If you've got plans to secure a home loan, then one of the most important pieces of advice we can give is to start the process early.

Imagine getting to crunch time and missing out on your dream property because your finance isn't sorted, or having to go with your third choice of lender purely because they're the only ones who'll approve you in time. It happens!

Getting in touch with us sooner, rather than later, also means we can help you create the best impression with the lender - this preparation will ideally start months before you apply.

So, what are you waiting for?

No change to the cash rate today, with the RBA deciding to hold it steady at 4.35%.

They’ll meet again in August, and will be looking at whether the last three rate hikes have helped curb inflation as hoped.

If you’re wondering what this means for the lending landscape, now's a great time to speak with us to understand your options.

Let's start with a caveat: what's best for you will depend on your unique situation, so consider this information as a broad overview, rather than actual advice.

Offset account:
This works like a transaction account, with one difference: the funds in your offset account are 'offset' against the balance of your loan. Interest is calculated against this lesser amount, so the more funds in your offset account, the less interest you pay.

To maximise the interest-saving benefits people often have their salary deposited straight to their offset account, along with any big one-off payments – like tax refunds.

Redraw facility:
A redraw facility on the other hand, allows you to make additional repayments on your loan, which you can then access later if you need to (for renovations, holidays, purchasing a car, emergencies).

Both of these options have distinct advantages and disadvantages.

It all comes down to being smart about how to use them and being aware of all the fees, exceptions and tax implications.

It turns out that celebrating the little wins makes our day brighter and brings us closer to achieving our big goals.

How? The serotonin released when we give ourselves a congratulatory high five (or a celebratory toast) helps us stay motivated and propels us to the next little win, and the next one...until finally: We've made it!

What little wins are you celebrating right now on your way to that big goal?

An offset account can be a powerful tool to reduce the interest you pay on your mortgage.

It’s like a savings account linked to your home loan, and the more money you have in your offset account, the less interest you pay.

For example, if you have $50k sitting in your offset account and a $900k mortgage, you'll only pay interest on $850k.

Curious about how much you could save? Let's chat about how an offset account can work for you.

Does your HECS debt impact your ability to get a home loan?

It can, in that it impacts your borrowing capacity. Borrowing capacity, by the way, is essentially 'how much the bank is willing to lend you'.

Instead of lenders looking at the entire HECS debt though, as they would with a credit card or personal loan, they're more interested in how much you're having to repay each month.

This means the degree to which your HECS debt impacts your borrowing capacity depends more on your income than the overall size of the debt.

Think of it this way, it's your HECS debt repayments that make the difference. The banks are interested in this amount because it affects how much cash you'll have leftover to pay your mortgage.

While you don't necessarily need a 20% deposit for your home loan, your savings will play a part in the lender's decision to approve your application...or not.

Being able to show you're able to save money proves to the banks you're disciplined with your finances, which is a trait they find very attractive.
