How is a mortgage broker paid?
As a reward for generating new business from customers, mortgage brokers receive two types of commissions from lenders. They are paid an upfront commission when you sign up for a loan, plus a trailing commission every year you still owe money on the loan. But if you decide to refinance your mortgage elsewhere, the broker might have to pay a clawback commission fee to your original lender.

I am receiving a single payment an a foster care payment .I am renting at the moment but would like to use the money I am paying on rent towards a home of my own as the rent increases each year .I also have a car loan an that payment could also go towards a home loan if it could be paid out
Hi Sandra,
Thanks for your question.
If you are receiving foster care allowances, kindly note that this is accepted as a form of income but you need to be receiving another source of income. For more information on Centrelink loans, you can check our guide on this page.
