Common Sydney home loan questions

Quick answers on borrowing power, deposits and how a broker can help.

How much does a mortgage broker cost in Australia?
For most home loans a broker costs you nothing out of pocket. The lender pays the broker a commission after your loan settles, so the service is free to the borrower in the vast majority of cases. A small number of brokers charge a fee for complex or commercial scenarios, and if they do they must disclose it to you in writing before you proceed.
How do mortgage brokers get paid if I don't pay them?
Lenders pay brokers two types of commission. An upfront commission of roughly 0.6 to 0.7 percent of the loan amount is paid when the loan settles, and a trail commission of around 0.15 to 0.2 percent of the outstanding balance is paid each year while the loan runs. These payments come from the lender, not from you.
Does using a mortgage broker mean I pay a higher interest rate?
No. The rate you get through a broker is the same rate the lender offers directly, and brokers can often access sharper pricing because of their lender panel and volume. The commission the lender pays the broker does not get added to your rate or your loan balance.
How much can I borrow for a home loan?
Your borrowing power depends on your income, living expenses, existing debts, the number of dependants, and the deposit you have. Lenders must also assess you at your actual interest rate plus an APRA buffer of 3 percentage points, and most apply a debt-to-income cap of around six times gross income. A broker can run your numbers across several lenders, as borrowing capacity varies between them.
Why do lenders assess me at a higher interest rate than the one I'll pay?
Regulator APRA (the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority) requires lenders to add a serviceability buffer of 3 percentage points to your actual rate when testing whether you can afford the loan. This is to make sure you could still cope if rates rose. The buffer was confirmed at 3 percentage points again in 2026, and it reduces how much you can borrow by roughly 15 to 20 percent.
