Car Loans

Documentation requirements vary depending on your employment type and loan purpose, but generally include proof of identity, income verification, and asset statements. Employed borrowers typically need recent payslips, tax returns, and employment contracts. Self-employed applicants require business financial statements, tax returns, and accountant-prepared documents. You'll also need bank statements showing your deposit source and spending patterns, along with details of any existing debts or commitments. ZARALEND provides a personalised checklist based on your specific situation and the lender's requirements. We review your documents before submission to ensure everything is complete and presented in the most favourable way possible.

Rentvesting involves purchasing an investment property while continuing to rent where you want to live.

Our brokers understand the different lending criteria for investment properties compared to owner-occupied homes. We also provide guidance on selecting locations and property types that align with your investment objectives and lending capacity.

ZARALEND's mortgage broking services typically don't cost you anything upfront. We receive our remuneration from the lenders when your loan settles, which means you can access our expertise without paying broker fees. This commission structure is regulated and standardised across the industry, ensuring transparency in how we're compensated. The amount we receive doesn't influence the loan options we present to you - our obligation is to find suitable lending solutions based on your needs and circumstances. In some cases, particularly for complex commercial or unique residential situations, there may be application fees, but we'll always discuss any costs upfront before proceeding with your application.

ZARALEND works with borrowers across various financial situations, including those with credit challenges or non-traditional income sources. We have access to specialist lenders who consider applications that major banks might decline. This includes self-employed borrowers, casual workers, those with previous credit defaults, or recent immigrants to Australia. Our brokers understand which lenders are more flexible with their lending criteria and can structure your application to highlight your strengths. While we can't guarantee approval for every situation, we'll provide honest advice about your prospects and suggest strategies to improve your borrowing position if needed.

Building a property portfolio requires strategic financial planning and access to appropriate lending products. ZARALEND helps investors structure their borrowing to maximise tax benefits and lending capacity for future purchases. We understand cross-collateralisation, offset accounts, and loan structuring strategies that support portfolio growth. Our brokers work with lenders who have appetite for multiple investment properties and understand the serviceability calculations for portfolio lending. We also provide guidance on timing purchases, using equity from existing properties, and maintaining adequate cash flow across your investments. Our goal is to help you build sustainable wealth through property while managing your financial risk appropriately.

Banks can only offer their own products, which limits your options significantly. ZARALEND mortgage brokers have access to multiple lenders across Australia, including major banks, credit unions, and specialist lenders. This means we can compare hundreds of loan products to find options that suit your specific circumstances. We also understand different lenders' policies and can direct your application to institutions most likely to approve your situation. Our brokers save you time by handling the application process and negotiations on your behalf. Additionally, we provide ongoing support throughout the settlement process and can assist with future refinancing or additional borrowing needs.

The approval timeline depends on several factors including your financial complexity, chosen lender, and current market conditions. Pre-approval can often be obtained within a few days to two weeks when all documentation is complete and accurate. Formal approval after finding a property typically takes two to four weeks, though this can vary. ZARALEND streamlines the process by ensuring your application is complete before submission and maintaining regular contact with lenders to expedite processing. We keep you informed throughout each stage and proactively address any lender queries. Our established relationships with multiple lenders often result in faster processing times compared to direct applications.
