DOES YOUR LENDER/BROKER PROVIDE YOU WITH THIS INFORMATION?
Our Fact Sheets provide in-depth information that is generally not available from any other source (INCLUDING the Lender).
They have been designed so that prospective borrowers have access to ALL of the information they need to make an informed
decision regarding the suitability of the loan to meet their requirements.
To properly evaluate a loan, we believe that full disclosure of the following information is critical to the decision making process:
- What are the loan features?
- How much will it cost to set up the loan?
- What are the interest rate options and ongoing fees?
- How much will it cost to discharge the loan?
- What documents will I need to supply to apply for this loan?

Lenders Mortgage Insurance (or LMI) does not protect the borrower
in any shape or form. It is an insurance policy taken out by the Lender in case
you are late with your payments or default on the loan. If this occurs, then the
Mortgage Insurer will pay the lender the shortfall and will then
recover this amount from you. Mortgage insurance is normally payable by
borrowers on all loans with a Loan to Value ratio

Bad Credit refers to entries that have been recorded on your Credit Report
because you have not paid a bill following repeated requests from the Credit Provider
(commonly called a Default), or where a credit related matter has been formally placed before the Courts (Judgements and Court Writs).
Defaults often relate to unpaid Telco bills (telephones, mobile phones etc) as well as Utility bills (Electricity, Gas etc). Once an
entry has been recorded on your Credit Report, it can stay there for up to 7 years (regardless of whether you pay the outstanding amount
or not). Generally speaking, it is difficult to obtain Credit at favourable Terms if you have entries of this nature on your
Credit Report (particularly if the account has not been paid).
Note that being late with a bill payment or having an overdue account does not constitute Bad Credit. It is only a problem if it has
been formally recorded on your Credit Report (eg: placed with a debt collection agency).
As part of the Loans process, we usually check your Credit Report before we complete
formal paperwork. We will then discuss the results with you and advise you of your options if there are any matters of concern.
When you make a Credit Application with a Credit Provider (eg: a Bank, a Telephone company or for a Credit Card), the details of
your enquiry are logged in a Central Database (accessible, by Subscription only, over the Internet). If you do not pay an
outstanding account, then the Credit Provider can record this in the same Database (commonly called a Default). Most Credit
Providers will check your Credit Report before granting Credit. If there are adverse entries (Defaults, Judgements, Writs etc),
then your application for Credit MAY be declined (without reason).
Note that you have to give express permission to the Credit Provider before they can access your information.
This is usually done by signing a Privacy Authority included with the Credit Application Form. You are not required to grant permission
to the Lender to do this, but your Credit Application is unlikely to be approved without it.
The company that provides this service in Australia is Veda Advantage.
They are required (by law) to provide you with a copy of your Credit Report on request.
