Frequently Asked Questions
How much can I borrow for a home loan?
The amount you can borrow for a home loan depends on several factors, including your income, expenses, existing debts, and credit history. At Stanford Financial, we evaluate your financial situation to determine the maximum loan amount you qualify for, ensuring it aligns with your repayment capability. You can get a rough estimate using our online home loan calculator or schedule a consultation with one of our loan advisors for a more precise assessment.
How much deposit do I need for a home loan?
The minimum deposit required for a home loan typically ranges from 5% to 20% of the property’s purchase price. The exact percentage can vary based on the loan product and your financial circumstances. A larger deposit might help you secure better interest rates and avoid the cost of Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI). We recommend discussing your deposit options with a Stanford Financial loan specialist to find the best solution for your needs.
What is the LVR of a home loan?
The Loan to Value Ratio (LVR) is a measure used by lenders to assess the risk of a home loan. It is calculated by dividing the loan amount by the value of the property being purchased, expressed as a percentage. For example, if you’re borrowing $300,000 to purchase a $400,000 property, your LVR would be 75%. A lower LVR generally represents lower risk for the lender and may result in more favourable loan conditions.

Does HECS debt affect home loan?
Yes, your Higher Education Contribution Scheme (HECS) debt can affect your home loan application. While it is not considered as negatively as other types of debt, your HECS debt reduces your overall borrowing capacity as it is a financial commitment that must be repaid from your income. Lenders, including Stanford Financial, take your HECS debt into account when assessing your loan application, evaluating your income and repayment capacity. It’s important to disclose any HECS debt during the application process.
