Common Questions We Answer Every Day

Sydney buyers, refinancers, and investors come to us with these questions — and we have clear answers for all of them.

How much can I borrow in Sydney?

Borrowing capacity depends on your income, existing debts, and deposit. We'll run the numbers for free — usually within the same business day.

How much stamp duty will I pay in NSW?

First home buyers may be eligible for stamp duty concessions on eligible Sydney properties. We'll confirm exactly what you qualify for.

Can I buy in Sydney with less than 20% deposit?

Yes — the First Home Guarantee allows 5% deposit with no LMI. Professionals can access waived LMI at 10%. We'll identify the right path for your situation.

I'm paying too much on my mortgage — what can I do?

Many Sydney homeowners are overpaying after rate rises. We'll compare your rate against a wide panel of lenders and show you exactly what you could save by refinancing.

Can I get a mortgage if I'm self-employed in Sydney?

Yes — we work with lenders who offer full-doc and low-doc solutions for self-employed borrowers across all industries, with 1+ year ABN history.

Are there Islamic finance options in Sydney?

Yes — Islamic home finance is offered by specialist providers, who confirm their own Shariah compliance. Confirm details directly with your chosen provider.

Why Sydney Buyers Choose Mortgagefy

Sydney's property market is complex. Getting the right loan requires more than just a low rate.

Sydney remains one of the most expensive and competitive property markets in the world, with house prices well above $1 million in many areas and apartments typically lower (check current figures from a property data provider). For buyers at every stage — from first home buyers in the west to investors adding to city portfolios — the gap between the right lender and the wrong one can mean tens of thousands of dollars over the life of a loan.

Mortgagefy serves buyers across all of Greater Sydney, including South West Sydney, Western Sydney, Parramatta, Campbelltown, the Hills District, Northern Sydney, and the Eastern Suburbs. Our specialist knowledge spans the full spectrum of Sydney borrowers: first home buyers accessing the First Home Guarantee and stamp duty exemptions or concessions (may vary by property price and circumstances; check Revenue NSW), refinancers who moved onto higher variable rates in 2022–23 and haven't reviewed since, and investors building portfolios in high-yield corridors like Liverpool, Bankstown, and the Western Sydney Airport precinct.

We also work extensively with Sydney's professional community — doctors, dentists, lawyers, and engineers who qualify for waived LMI professional packages, which may reduce LMI costs, depending on the lender and your circumstances. Self-employed Sydneysiders — from tradies in the outer suburbs to business owners in Parramatta's CBD — have specialist low-doc and alt-doc options through our lender network. And for Sydney's large and growing Muslim community, Islamic home finance is offered by specialist providers, and we can help you explore your options. Confirm Shariah compliance directly with your chosen provider.

We search across our wide panel of lenders — including the big four banks, non-bank lenders, and specialist lenders that don't advertise directly to the public. Our service is completely free to you. We're paid by the lender, not the borrower.

Frequently Asked Questions — Sydney

Borrowing capacity in Sydney depends on your gross income, existing debts (credit cards, car loans, HECS), living expenses, and deposit size. As a rough guide, many lenders will lend approximately 5–7x your annual gross income — so a household income of $150,000 may support borrowing of $750,000–$1,000,000 depending on your situation. Use our Borrowing Power Calculator for a personalised estimate, or call us for a free assessment.
For an owner-occupier who is not a first home buyer, stamp duty on a $1,000,000 Sydney property is around $40,000 in NSW; the exact amount depends on current Revenue NSW rates, so use its transfer duty calculator. Eligible first home buyers purchasing a home valued up to $800,000 may receive a full transfer duty exemption; above $800,000 and below $1,000,000 a concessional rate may apply. The amount varies by property price and circumstances. Source: Revenue NSW (checked 4 October 2026); confirm current thresholds with Revenue NSW. We'll confirm your exact entitlements at your free consultation.
The NSW First Home Owner Grant (FHOG) provides $10,000 for eligible first home buyers purchasing or building a new home valued up to $600,000 (land plus building contract up to $750,000 when building). The grant does not apply to established properties. To be eligible you must be an Australian citizen or permanent resident, aged 18+, and have not previously owned property in Australia. The First Home Guarantee (5% deposit, no LMI) applies to both new and established properties up to $1.5 million in NSW.
Yes — Islamic home finance is offered by specialist providers, who confirm their own Shariah compliance. These products use Diminishing Musharakah (co-ownership gradually transferred to the buyer) or Ijarah (lease-to-own) structures to avoid riba (interest). We serve Sydney's Muslim community across all regions — Lakemba, Bankstown, Parramatta, Liverpool, and beyond.
Yes — certain professions qualify for Lenders Mortgage Insurance waivers at up to 90% LVR. Eligible professions typically include doctors (including GP, specialists, and dentists), lawyers, some accountants, and engineers. On a $1 million Sydney purchase with 10% deposit, this may reduce your LMI costs, depending on the lender. We'll confirm your eligibility at your free assessment.
Savings vary significantly depending on your current rate, loan size, and remaining term. On a $700,000 loan, reducing your rate by 0.5% saves approximately $210 per month ($2,500+ per year). On a $1.2 million loan, the same reduction saves around $360 per month. We'll conduct a full comparison across our wide panel of lenders and present you with exact numbers — no cost, no obligation. Savings, if any, depend on your circumstances and the lender.
