What is pre-approval?

Pre-approval (or conditional approval) is an agreement from a lender that you’re eligible to apply for a loan up to a certain amount. We assess your position so you can confidently put in an offer on the home of your dreams.

Be seen as a serious buyer in the market

Apply for pre-approval when you’re ready to start house-hunting. Pre-approvals are good for 90 days and we can extend it for you if you need more time to search.

We’ll be in touch to help you through your home buying journey. Once you’ve found the property you want, our lending specialist team can easily help you turn your pre-approval into an unconditional approval. They’ll just need the contract of sale and we’ll arrange a property valuation.

Read our Home Loan Terms.

Credit criteria, fees and charges apply. Applicants must live in Australia and meet eligibility requirements.

Home loan information and interest rates are subject to change.

1Comparison rates are calculated on a loan amount of $150,000 for a term of 25 years. These rates are for secured lending only.

WARNING: The comparison rates are true only for the examples given and may not include all fees and charges. Different terms, fees or other loan amounts might result in a different comparison rate.

For a personalised comparison rate that applies to your proposed loan, see the Key facts sheet.

Comparison rates for variable interest only loans are based on an initial 5 year interest only period. Comparison rates for fixed interest only loans are based on an initial interest only period equal in length to the fixed period. Interest rates are applicable at the time of loan approval and are based on the loan to value ratio (LVR). The LVR is the amount of the loan compared to the property value expressed as a percentage.
