Is Refinancing Worth It? Here’s What to Look At First

The answer depends on more than just your interest rate. Before deciding, it’s worth reviewing:

  • Rate gap – is your current rate meaningfully higher than what’s available today?
  • Break costs – if you’re on a fixed rate, there may be exit fees to factor in
  • Loan features – offset accounts, redraw and repayment flexibility can be worth as much as a rate reduction
  • Time remaining – refinancing late in a loan term may not save as much as it seems
  • Your goals – lower repayments, accessing equity, debt consolidation and better lender service are all valid reasons

We assess all of these factors upfront and give you a clear view of whether refinancing makes sense – and if so, by how much.

Who Refinancing is Well-Suited For

We work with a wide range of clients considering refinancing, but it tends to add the most value for:

  • Homeowners on older fixed or variable rates who haven’t reviewed their loan in 2+ years
  • Self-employed borrowers who may now qualify for better products as their business has matured
  • Investors looking to restructure lending for tax efficiency or portfolio growth
  • Clients consolidating debt and wanting to simplify repayments into one facility
  • Anyone whose circumstances have changed – income growth, equity increase, or shifting financial goals

If you’re unsure whether your situation qualifies, that’s exactly the conversation we have at no cost and no obligation.

How it works in 3 simple steps

A clearer, smarter refinance in three steps.

  1. Review your current loan
    We assess your existing home loan, outline what’s working (and what’s not), and identify opportunities to save or improve.
  2. Compare lenders & choose your best option
    We analyse options across a wide lender panel, explain the benefits and drawbacks clearly, and recommend the structure that fits your goals.
  3. Apply, switch & settle
    We manage the full refinancing process, handle all communication with lenders, and ensure a smooth transition to your new loan.

You get a better loan — without the stress, paperwork or guesswork.

What to consider before refinancing

  • Interest rates aren’t everything.
    Features like offset accounts, redraw and repayment flexibility can be equally important.
  • There may be fees.
    Exit fees, break costs and new loan setup fees vary by lender. We outline these upfront.
  • Your borrowing capacity may have changed.
    Income, expenses and lender policies shift over time — we reassess everything for you.
  • Timing matters.
    Refinancing during a fixed-rate term may involve break costs. We help you understand the best time to move.

Your long-term goals should guide the decision.
Saving today is great — but your future plans matter just as much.

Refinancing FAQs

Is refinancing worth it?
It depends on your interest rate, loan structure and goals. We assess everything and give you clear, personalised guidance.
How long does refinancing take?
Typically 2–6 weeks depending on the lender. We keep you updated at every stage.
Do I pay for your services?
No. Lenders pay us, and our advice is always tailored to your situation.
Can I refinance if I’m self-employed?
Yes. We work with lenders who understand business owners and can assess non-standard income.
Will refinancing hurt my credit score?
A single enquiry usually has minimal impact. We position your application to avoid unnecessary credit checks.

Absolutely — many clients use equity for renovations, investments or major expenses.
What documents do I need?
Typically payslips or financials, ID, loan statements and general expenses. We outline everything clearly for you.

Richie Ballard supported us for nearly two years, and we finally secured the home we have been looking for. I wasn’t even pregnant with our second child and now he’s 9 months old. Richie was on the phone or finding us the best solution at all hours. He’s helped simplify information and present us with our best options ahead of time, and even late the night before an auction when we’ve thrown a change into the mix or needed clarification to settle our concerns. We’ve changed our budget, areas of interest and approach and he’s been there the entire journey. He’s shared our disappointment when we weren’t successful, but checked in and kept our spirits high along the journey. A huge thank you Richie for assisting and persisting with us along this long journey!

I could not thank Teagan, Richard and Russell for the help they provided for me with my car loan. All these guys truly took the time to get the best rate and also were transparent with exceptional communication throughout the lending process. Couldn’t recommend them enough.
