  • What do lenders look at when approving a North Brisbane home loan?

    When applying for a home loan, lenders typically assess:


    • Income & employment stability – A steady income reassures lenders of your repayment ability.
    • Credit history – A strong credit score improves your chances of approval.
    • Deposit size – A larger deposit can unlock better interest rates and reduce LMI (Lenders Mortgage Insurance).
    • Debt-to-income ratio – Lower existing debts can strengthen your application.

    At Kelly Brothers Finance, we work with a range of lenders to find the best home loan for your situation, whether you’re a first-time buyer, upgrading, or investing.

  • Can I use equity from my current home to buy a new property in North Brisbane?

    Yes! Equity is the difference between your home’s value and your remaining mortgage. Many homeowners use their equity to:


    • Buy a second home
    • Upgrade to a larger property
    • Invest in real estate

    At Kelly Brothers Finance, we help homeowners in North Brisbane unlock equity and structure their loans efficiently. We’ll assess your home’s value, calculate your usable equity, and explore financing options to help you move forward confidently.

  • How do I buy a new home while selling my current one?

    There are several strategies to buy and sell a home at the same time, including:


    • Bridging loans – These provide funds to buy before you sell.
    • Conditional purchase contracts – You can make an offer on a new home, subject to selling your existing property.
    • Extended settlements – This allows more time to sell your current home.

    At Kelly Brothers Finance, we specialise in home loan solutions for North Brisbane homeowners. We’ll assess your financial situation and recommend the best strategy to help you secure your dream home without unnecessary stress.

  • What is a bridging loan, and how does it work when changing homes?

    A bridging loan is a short-term loan that helps you buy a new home before selling your current one. It covers the gap between the purchase of your new property and the sale proceeds from your existing home.


    At Kelly Brothers Finance, we help North Brisbane homeowners secure bridging loans with flexible repayment options, ensuring a smooth transition. The loan is typically interest-only during the bridging period and converts to a standard home loan once your existing property is sold.


    If you’re upsizing, downsizing, or relocating, a bridging loan can provide financial flexibility and peace of mind. Contact us today to explore your options.
