What is the process for refinancing a home loan? How long does it take to refinance my home loan?

The refinancing process is similar to what happens when you apply for any new home loan. The main difference is the settlement date and loan details are more flexible because you aren't tied to a property transfer. This means many of the details can be locked in pretty quickly and at a time that best suits you.

We have a quick and easy 3-step process to help you get ready to refinance.

Get the documents you’ll need to verify your income, expenses and liabilities ready

Find the right deal, and apply

home loans from digital lenders are a popular option for home buyers looking for an alternative to traditional banks. Digital lenders such as 86 400 can offer a home loan up to 6 times faster than the Big 4 banks.

How? They offer unconditional approvals in under 24 hours for completed applications, electronic ID checks, electronic income and expense verification and all loan documents are issued and signed electronically. Now might be the time to consider a digital lender.

Fantastic service and great outcome. I have used Scott Wilkinson twice (initial finance and a subsequent refinance) and have found him to be responsive, reliable and knowledgeable - secured me a circa 1% rate reduction with minimal work involved from my end. Highly recommend.

What a smooth, hassle free and stress free refinance with Jake. He took a very complicated loan from one bank to the other and not only saved us a lot of money but we basically also didn’t have to lift a finger in the entire process (apart from the basic paperwork needed). I am extremely impressed with Jakes knowledge and how he was able to answer questions and explain complications. Thank you Jake and the entire staff at UNO :)

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.
