Are you actively managing your home loan?

As an Active Home Loan Manager, uno stays on top of the best rates in market so you don’t have to.

New research released today by uno Home Loans has found Australians are wasting an estimated $4.2 billion annually on home loan waste. In other words, homeowners are throwing away billions each year largely because they – or their brokers – are not being proactive about shopping around for a better rate.

Research detailed in the uno Household Financial Waste

The cost of inaction

This bank loyalty – or inactivity – is costing Australian homeowners an exorbitant amount each year.

When it comes to home loans, one of the main barriers to refinancing is customers having to shop around or ask their broker to shop around for a better deal. Using data from its customer base, uno found 84% of homeowners would be more likely to refinance if they were alerted about not having the best deal for their situation.

It found the same number (84%) of people would be more likely to refinance if there was a service that automatically found and alerted them to cheaper loans tailored to their situation.

Enter uno’s Active Home Loan Management, which acts in the best interests of home loan customers. uno can proactively manage the home loans of Australians on their behalf, so consumers don’t have to worry about them.

There are 3 stages to the Active Home Loan Management service:

  1. ANALYSE – uno will scan the market using our unique loanScore technology to check customers’ loans against thousands of home loan products in the market.
  2. ALERT – When a customer’s potential savings hits their chosen savings threshold, uno will alert them that a better deal may be available and also send them regularly updates.
  3. ACT – With the customer’s approval, uno will either renegotiate with the customer’s current lender or switch them to a better deal.

    Already, loanScore customers have been shown to have a potential median 3-year saving of $5,200.

    The cornerstone of uno’s Active Home Loan Management is its loanScore technology, which analyses a customer’s home loan against thousands of other loans in the market and enables customers to see how their loan compares. They can also see how much they could save if they take action to change it.

    1 All loan applications are subject to uno assessment and lender approval. uno does not guarantee that it will be able to find a customer a better loan than the one they currently have or to save them money

    2. uno will check your home loan by comparing the most recent data you have provided uno about your current home loan against uno’s available lender data and calculating the loanScoreTM. Refer to
    for further details on how your loanScoreTM is calculated

    3. Variable rate, owner occupier, P&I loan with LVR under 80%. Results are based on what you entered and should be used as a guide only. Lender rates and products may change. We cannot suggest you remain in or switch to any loan until we complete our assessment. Fees and charges apply.

My dealings with Scott Wilkinson at UNO, have been nothing short of exemplary. My refinance involved a bunch of moving parts due to a business debt, and Scott didn't stop until we got an excellent result! Great communication, easy online portals for data collection and, from all accounts, a great team working together to get results for their clients. I really can't thank Scott enough, for going the extra mile(s) to make this happen for me. 10/10 would recommend his services to anyone looking at a restructure, and I won't hesitate to reach out again, should I be in the position in the future.

The UNO Home Loans team provided a great experience. I'm an expat Aussie living in the UK who was looking for an investment property back home in Australia. Mike and the team guided me through the whole process from giving me an initial indication of how much I could borrow, to finding me a lender with an appropriate loan that met my needs, and finally through the settlement process with the bank. The team were always available to answer my questions very promptly. The whole experience was very easy and hassle free.

We chose Uno Home Loans from their impressive web site knowing we were going to find it hard, on many fronts, to qualify for a home loan. We were incredibly fortunate to be assigned Mike Parsons as right from the get-go, despite the complexities, he hit the ground running for us. He was incredibly knowledgeable, with years of experience but what was immediately apparent and impressive was that he was totally invested in getting us over the line, doing absolutely everything possible, including working around the clock. Despite it being a relatively small loan in the order of things, Mike never missed a beat, getting docs ready, following up and answering every request from the proposed funder immediately. He kept us informed on progress the minute anything happened, and again if anything needed to be done, he was right on it. In short, we highly recommend Uno, and Mike, knowing what a remarkable job he did, over many weeks, to get us our loan. He got us a great deal, with far better rates than we expected, so we couldn't be happier. In fact, without doubt, you'd be hard pressed to find a more personable, sharp, hard working, dedicated professional who clearly prides himself on getting his customers standout results.
