CBA Investment Loan Client Story
Goal
Dan and Isabella Morrison wanted to refinance their owner-occupied property and cash out the maximum available equity to purchase investment properties.
Story
Dan and Isabella had an existing loan with CBA. They came in touch with Home Loan Experts mortgage broker Jonathan for assistance. While shopping around for the best deals, Jonathan found out that NAB offered competitive rates, compared with CBA. So, he initially submitted two deals to NAB. The refinance deal was formally approved, and the purchase deal was pre-approved right after the submission. CBA tried to retain the clients, however, and promised them a better fixed rate of 2.49% for two years without rate lock charges Their offer was given on 17 January and was set to expire in two weeks. Since applications were lodged with NAB already, Jonathan attempted to negotiate a better deal with that bank. But NAB did not offer a better rate than CBA’s. The clients were interested in staying with CBA, so the main challenge was submitting the deal with CBA within the two-week window. Jonathan immediately submitted the deal with CBA for a loan increase and a new pre-approval for an investment loan on 31 January. CBA sent formal approval soon after that – on 2 February. The deal was settled on 18 February. It was a quick process because most of the documents from the client were already prepared.
A Happy Ending
The clients were delighted that CBA tried to retain them by lowering the interest rates. They were also thankful to Jonathan for guiding them and doing all the legwork on their behalf.
