Frequently asked questions

  • Indicative pre-approval is provided by a lender as an estimate of your borrowing power based on your current circumstances. While pre-approval doesn’t guarantee full approval of a home loan application, the process can provide some peace of mind and help give you an idea of what you might be able to afford. Once you've found a property, you'll need to complete a full home loan application which requires final unconditional lender approval before you can proceed with the purchase.

  • Seeking this type of home loan pre-approval before you start browsing for properties is a smart first step. When you are ready to move ahead, you can begin the home loan application process to seek conditional approval with a realistic idea of what you might be able to borrow.

  • Borrowing power is the term used to describe how much you can borrow based on your financial situation. When it comes to home loans, having more borrowing power means more options and often a higher loan amount. Liberty’s indicative pre-approval tool calculates your potential borrowing power along with your indicative interest rate and estimated home loan repayments in just minutes.

  • A home loan repayments calculator is a basic tool that gives you an idea of what you could be looking to repay on a mortgage over the life of the loan. With Liberty’s indicative pre-approval tool, you’ll receive a more realistic instant estimate of what your home loan repayments might be based on the quoted interest rate and amount you would like to borrow, tailored to your circumstances.
