Why there are loans with no deposit. It’s take a few yrs to save and the property prices keeps going up.
Hi Bhama,
Thanks for your question.
Since the GFC, the lending criteria for home loans have become stricter.
No deposit home loans can be available if you have a guarantor. There are also low deposit home loans available.
Cheers,

Hi…….we have a home loan of 251,000 and last year we fixed it for 5 years but due to unforeseen circumstances we are forced to sell it. This means we will have to break our fixed rate 4 years early. roughly how much will this cost us (i know its going to be so so much). Also are big banks willing to negotiate or are the rules set in stone?
Hi Carla,
Thanks for your question.
The break costs and rules for a home loan is determined on a case by case basis. Please contact your home loan consultant or the customer service team at Commonwealth Bank to enquire about this.
Cheers,
Shirley
how long to approve first home loan , I have 100k deposit
Hi Steve,
Thanks for your comment.
It is possible for CBA to provide a decision on your loan within an hour if you provide enough information. It also depends on a number of factors like if you’ve already found a property that you’d like to buy.
Hope this helps,
Shirley
