Why Finance Feels Complicated for Buyers
Most property buyers face the same challenges:
- First-home buyers often don’t know where to start, how much they can borrow, or how to access the First Home Owner Grant (FHOG).
- Upgraders may need bridging finance to manage buying and selling at the same time.
- Investors want tailored loan structures that maximise tax benefits and returns.
- Refinancers suspect they’re paying too much, but the idea of switching feels daunting.
The truth is, the right loan can save you tens of thousands of dollars over its lifetime—but choosing without expert help can mean missed opportunities, delays, or even declined applications.
Our Mortgage Broker Services
At Ray White West Realty, we make finance simple, strategic, and stress-free. Here’s what you can expect:

Wide Lender Access
With Loan Market’s network, we compare loans from more than 60 banks and specialist lenders. That means you’re not stuck with the limited options of a single bank.

Tailored Loan Options
Every buyer is different. We match you with the loan that suits your circumstances—whether you’re a first-home buyer, upgrading, investing, or refinancing.

Government Grant Guidance
Our team helps you access all the support you’re eligible for, including:
- First Home Owner Grant (FHOG)
- Stamp duty concessions
- Victorian and Federal incentive schemes

Pre-Approvals for Confidence
We’ll arrange pre-approval so you know your budget before you make an offer. This gives you confidence at auctions and avoids wasting time on properties outside your range.

Refinancing Solutions
Our brokers review your existing loan to check if you could save on interest, fees, or repayments. Many clients are surprised at how much they can save by switching.

Investment Loan Support
From structuring loans for tax efficiency to planning for future purchases, we provide strategies to grow your portfolio with confidence.

Can you help me access the First Home Owner Grant?
Yes—we guide you through the application and ensure you don’t miss out on eligible savings.

Exceptionally professional experience that exceeded expectations. This is the second house sale that Darren has managed for us. Even though it was outside his local area, we were keen to use Darren because of our previous positive experience. We cannot praise Darren highly enough. He and his colleague Sunita were passionate about the sale. Their ‘can-do’ attitude and tenacious approach resulted in the maximum exposure of our property. Darren and Sunita went above and beyond in always listening, being available, providing excellent advice and, above all, always active honestly and with integrity. There were challenges along the way, but neither Darren nor Sunita ever let us down. Their expertise particularly shone through during these occasions. A special mention to our auctioneer, Cameron; an outstanding professional and skilful auctioneer who completes the exceptional sales team with Darren and Sunita.
