DPN will provide you with comprehensive loan information including disclosure statements, fees, privacy policies, Lenders Mortgage Insurance, credit guide and the loan application.
We will liaise with the lender on your behalf to obtain a pre-approval. Each lender has different loan approval timeframes; however, a general guide is two to four weeks.
We'll also share a handy borrower's checklist, setting out the identification the lender requires to accompany your loan application, and we'll also need supporting information about your employment, income and savings history.
Note: It’s important we get all the necessary documents to prevent delays.
To start a loan application, we'll need your deposit savings information plus the details of the property you plan to purchase.
