Relocation Loan
Remove the stress of timing the purchase or construction of your new home
How does our relocation loan work?
If you're buying a new home,
a relocation loan could help you pay for the deposit, stamp duty and removalist costs on a new property (as well as the purchase price on settlement). You have 12 months after receiving any funds to sell your current home.
If you're building a new home,
you can also use a relocation loan, living in your current home until construction is complete. You have 12 months after your first advance to build your new home, and sell the existing home.
Choose from 2 options...
Option 1.
Standalone Relocation loan
You repay the loan in full when you sell your current home.
Repayments
No repayments are needed until you sell your home, at which point you repay the Relocation Loan in full. The balance you pay off will include interest, which is capitalised into the loan during the loan term.
Although not required, you can make additional lump sum payments at any time.
Option 2.
Relocation loan combined with a new loan
This option applies where you may have some debt remaining after the sale of your home. You set up two loans, a Relocation loan and a second home loan. The Relocation loan will be fully paid off by the property sale, with the remaining amount covered by the second home loan.
Repayments
No repayments are needed on the Relocation loan; the sale of your home will repay it. The balance you pay off will include interest, which is capitalised into the loan during the loan term. However, regular repayments will be required to be made on the second loan.
You can make additional payments at any time.
