Mortgage Brokers
in Rhodes

Mortgage broking for Rhodes, New South Wales, from a team held to a best interests duty. With a heritage as Smartmove, now Viridian Lending. We compare lenders, structure the loan, and keep reviewing the rate long after settlement. From first conversation to settlement and beyond, you deal with the same team.

Rhodes, and the loans that come with it

Rhodes lending is defined by two things: loan size and property type. Loans here are the largest in the country, which narrows the pool of lenders willing to write them and makes policy differences matter more than advertised rates.

Apartments come with their own rules. Many lenders apply high-density postcode restrictions across the inner city, and most apply a minimum internal size. Off-the-plan carries a further risk, because the valuation happens at settlement rather than at signing and any shortfall is yours to fund.

On income, Rhodes produces more complexity than anywhere else: equity, deferred bonuses, trust distributions, business income and foreign earnings. Lenders shade every one of these differently, and some will not count them without a specific history.

Four moments,

not forty forms.

From first call to keys in hand is usually a matter of weeks. Then we stay. Every two years we look at the rate again, and move you when there’s something worth moving for.

The application

Let's find out what you can achieve. Income, deposit, the awkward bank statements. We fill in the form, you check it. We model a shortlist of lenders before anyone runs a credit check.
30MIN - FREE

Pre-approval

We shop the lenders. You walk into the open home knowing roughly what you can spend and roughly what rate to expect, instead of guessing what the bank might offer.
Usually 5-10 business days

Settlement

We coordinate with your conveyancer, review contracts, arrange valuations, and project-manage the day of keys, so you don't have to.
4-8 WEEKS - We handle it

The reviews

Every two years, automatically. We re-shop your rate, push your existing lender, and refinance when the numbers make it worth it. The job isn't finished at settlement.
