Buying a home

Buying or renovating a home can be an exciting time, but it can also be a stressful one. Taking on new debt is something you should consider carefully and we can help you work out a debt management plan. We're here to help ensure your financial future stays on track, so you have time to enjoy the finer things in life.

Here are a few things to consider when making a big financial commitment:

  • does your insurance cover meet your financial obligations? Buying a new home or investment property in Australia could be considered a significant life event. You may be eligible to increase your level of insurance cover without having to provide medical evidence 
  • have you considered how you'll manage your debt and cash flow after taking on a larger financial commitment? We can help you work out a debt plan that suits your lifestyle
  • what happens to your estate if you die? Have you reviewed your nominated beneficiary/ies? Now is the time to make any changes based on assets.
