Once your loan application and documents are submitted, we’ll review them and complete any necessary checks we need to do at our end (e.g. property valuation, credit checks, building documents) before we provide formal approval and your loan offer documents.
Estimated time for home loan approval (once documents submitted): 1-5 business days
Settlement is when the purchase of the property is completed and it officially becomes yours. We will arrange a settlement date, time and location with your solicitor or conveyancer and notify you by SMS as soon as settlement is completed.
