What other property investors are asking

There's no point re-inventing the wheel. Here's what other savvy investors are frequently asking us. If you're still stuck for help, then why not check out all of our home loan FAQs.

To apply for a home loan, you’ll need to provide documents to verify your identity, employment, and financial position. 

To prove your identity:

  • Australian passport

or

  • International passport showing a valid Australian permanent residency visa

To prove your deposit, you’ll need to provide the following (depending on where the funds originated from):

  • 3 months’ bank statements demonstrating genuine savings 
  • Share certificate or dividend statement for any public listed company
  • Gift letters for non-repayable gifts from family
  • Contract of sale or settlement statement for proceeds of a sale of another property

To prove your income:

For PAYG applicants you’ll need two recent payslips plus one of the following: 

• Most recent group certificate  
• Most recent notice of assessment  
• Current letter of employment 
• Bank statements - to confirm your last 3 months of salary 

For Self-Employed applicants, the required documents vary depending on how long you’ve been self-employed.

At least 6 months:

You’ll need to be able to show at least 6 months of GST and ABN registration and provide declaration of financial position, as well as one of the following: 6 months’ business bank statements, or 6 months’ BAS or Pepper Money accountant’s letter (not accepted if ABN registered for < 12 months, on loan sizes > $1.5m or on Plus).

Over 2 years:

Last 2 years’ tax returns and notices of assessments, or

Last 2 years’ financial statements executed by a registered tax agent or accountant


On some of our loan options, we offer finance up to 95% of the purchase price, meaning you can start to look at buying a house once you've saved at least 5% of the purchase price. The deposit amount needed may also depend on the property and area you’re looking at purchasing.

Remember, you’ll also need funds to be able to cover any loan fees, stamp duty and other government charges. These can’t be added to your home loan balance.

The interest rates for home loans tend to vary for each individual, depending on a range of factors: 

  • The amount you need to borrow against the property value; known as the Loan-to-Value Ratio (LVR) 
  • The size of your deposit  
  • Your income 
  • Credit history 
  • Any assets you own 
  • Any liabilities or credit obligations
  • Chosen repayment type – paying off interest-only, or principal and interest 
  • The purpose of the loan – if it’s for an owner-occupier or investment property

You can find out what interest rate you might be eligible for in under five minutes using our home loan interest rate calculator. It’s quick, easy and won’t impact your credit score.

Different lenders charge different upfront and ongoing monthly fees, which should be factored in when saving your deposit. Some of these can be added to your loan balance, while others will need to be paid upfront – fees include establishments or application fees, and risk or mortgage insurance fees. Other smaller fees will be added to your balance each month.

You can view a summary of our home loan fees.

You’ll also need to pay solicitor fees along with local and state government taxes and levies. These can’t be added to your house loan balance and are usually paid upon settlement.

Your Pepper Money Home Loan Journey – from application to actual settlement – can take up to six weeks – this is the typical timeframe for a home purchase, however, the process may be quicker if all the necessary documentation is provided sooner. 

Delays in decisions are most commonly caused by incorrect or missing documentation.

Exemplary customer service!

My partner and I dealt with Pepper Money for our most recent investment property purchase. The customer service team were very personable and were so responsive when it came to any questions or concerns, we had throughout the process. In my experience I have found the borrowing process with Pepper Money to be easier and more straightforward than with the larger banks. I will be referring friends and family to Pepper.

Excellent customer service

Well done to Pepper Money on getting our finance approval for our next investment property. With today's lending environment so difficult, we had almost given up hope, until we spoke to Pepper - their no-nonsense approach and responsiveness ensured a quick turnaround time for our application. We could not be happier with the service provided.

We refinanced our investment property with Pepper Money. From start to finish it was a simple and easy process, by far the best experience we have had to date. The customer service was impeccable, and all questions were answered promptly. I highly recommend Pepper.

We needed a loan for an investment home and the big banks were not interested - their loss now! My home loan was a little complicated, but we got there. Loan settled last week and Pepper Money have been good so far.
