Free home ownership seminars

Our online and in-person seminars will explain what’s involved in buying or building your home, giving you the guidance you need to feel more prepared and take the next step on your home ownership journey.
Getting pre-approval
Pre-approval shows how much HomeStart will lend you to buy a property, as long as the information you have supplied is correct and all conditions are met*.
With pre-approval you can:
- start looking for the home you want
- make an offer on a property with confidence
- have up to 4 months to search for your home
We can arrange pre-approval after your loan application has been assessed if you meet our eligibility criteria.
If it takes longer than 4 months to find a home, your Loan Consultant can reassess your situation to give you another pre-approval.
*A pre-approval is not a final approval. It is indicative of how much HomeStart may lend you, based upon the information you have provided. Formal approval is issued only when HomeStart’s eligibility and lending criteria and all terms and conditions are met. The specific details of your loan will be documented in your credit contract.
