Sunshine Coast Mortgage Brokers – Queensland

Posted September 7th, 2010 and last modified December 7th, 2010

The Sunshine Coast north of Brisbane is home to 312,908 local residents and an additional 50,000 visitors, including seasonal workers, at any one time. It is a Queensland coastal region that expanded its area in 2008 with the amalgamation of three former municipal regions, Noosa Shire, Maroochy Shire and Caloundra City to form the one all encompassing Sunshine Coast Regional Council. This larger area of administrative responsibility has facilitated the work of mortgage brokers in searching out suitable home loans for the large number of property investors wishing to invest in the region.

The Sunshine Coast’s current economic activity can be separated into three main areas: Tourism, retail and construction. Although agriculture has also become a major contributor since the recent local government expansion. Efforts are presently taking place to further diversify economic activity in the region with an emphasis being made on the more ‘clean green’ knowledge based businesses such as:

  • Information and communication technologies
  • Cleantech
  • Creative industries
  • Aviation
  • Education
  • Food and beverages

Many of these innovative new industries have been brought about by the activities of the University of the Sunshine Coast Innovative Centre. At the University itself, which is located at Sippy Downs, there is a ‘Knowledge Hub’ established under the auspices of the Queensland Government’s Regional Infrastructure Plan. This plan is based on the University becoming Australia’s first university town, such as has previously occurred in the United Kingdom. It is expected that it will eventually create employment for 6,000 people in knowledge based businesses with the potential of becoming Australia’s Silicon Valley.

All this economic activity taking place in the Sunshine Coast augers well for entrepreneurial minded people to move into the area to help establish such community based innovation. In order to be able to do that it will be necessary to discuss your plans with one of Australia’s 20,000 mortgage brokers so that the right home loan can be obtained that will help build your asset while increasing your wealth. Two out of three Australian home seekers are doing just that at the present time, which means they are using mortgage brokers to research for them the mortgage that best suits both their present needs as well as their future plans.

Mortgage brokers will provide you with three very important aspects concerning the obtaining of the right home loan, they are the following:

  1. Choice.
  2. Convenience.
  3. Professionalism.

Choice, of course means, that you the borrower will not have to slowly wade through home loan after home loan being offered by dozens of lenders. To make a proper comparison and to give you any chance at all of settling on the right home loan, you will have to spend much time sorting one offer from another. Mortgage brokers know the industry and they know what the lenders on their panel have to offer. It is much easier for them to choose a loan on your behalf and then offering it to you with a full explanation of why they think the loan they have chosen should be the one you make application for.

Convenience means that it is far more convenient for you to have experienced mortgage brokers looking out for you than you having to do all the hard work yourself. Mortgage brokers will visit you at your home or office at any time, they will even meet with you over the weekend if that is more convenient for you.

Professionalism in demeanour, professionalism in the way they go about their business. Mortgage brokers have built up a professional relationship with the various lenders on their panel, these important contacts facilitate your chances of getting your home loan application approved. They know what each lender requires in the way of application as well as what supporting documentation is needed. They will not submit your home loan application to a lender if it is incomplete or not ‘up to scratch’. This professional attitude to their work is appreciated by the lenders and makes the whole application process proceed much faster.

The services provided by mortgage brokers comes at no cost to yourself. They earn their livings from the commissions paid to them by the lender in return for forwarding your quality business. The home loan you finish up with will be offered at the same price whether you used the services of mortgage brokers or not. In fact if your mortgage broker happened to be successful in negotiating a better deal than that first offered you might even get your mortgage at a lower cost.

If you happen to be looking for a home loan but have a less than perfect credit history, or if your financial situation is too irregular for mainstream lenders to consider, mortgage brokers can probably find one of their non-bank lenders who will be willing to take you on. Some smaller lenders have less stringent lending criteria than many of the larger organisations.
