Bringing Australian Property Closer to You, Wherever You Are
For Australian expats living overseas, buying property back home can seem daunting due to the complexities of financing, currency exchange, and lender requirements. That’s why Shore Financial has developed Oceania, a bespoke home loan product designed specifically for expats. With market-leading rates, tailored loan structures, and expert guidance, Oceania is the ideal solution for expats looking to invest in Australian property.
An expat home loan is a mortgage tailored to Australian citizens and permanent residents who are currently living abroad but wish to purchase property in Australia. These loans require specific knowledge of foreign income, exchange rates, and expatriate requirements, which is why partnering with a specialist like Shore Financial is crucial.
With our exclusive Oceania Expat Loan product, we provide a straightforward solution with some of the most competitive rates available in the market, making it easier for expats to finance their Australian property dreams.
At Shore Financial, we’ve designed the Oceania Expat Loan product to offer tailored financial solutions that fit the unique needs of Australians living abroad. Here’s why our Oceania product stands out:
Market-Leading Rates:
Oceania offers some of the best interest rates in the market, specifically designed for expats. These competitive rates help you maximise your investment potential, making property ownership more affordable even while living overseas.
Simplified Loan Process:
We’ve streamlined the loan process with Oceania to make it easier for expats to apply, with flexible terms and reduced paperwork. Our team of experts works directly with you to ensure every aspect of the loan is handled efficiently from start to finish.
Custom Loan Structures:
Our loan products can be tailored to suit your specific needs, whether you’re looking to buy an investment property, a future family home, or refinance an existing loan. We offer a range of flexible options, including fixed and variable rates, and will customise the loan structure to suit your goals.
Foreign Income Expertise:
We specialise in evaluating foreign income in multiple currencies, ensuring your earnings meet Australian lender requirements. Our loan products take into account currency fluctuations and tax obligations to ensure you secure the most favourable loan terms possible.
Exclusive Support for Expats:
As a product specifically designed for expats, Oceania takes the complexities out of the lending process. From handling foreign currency exchanges to navigating local tax implications, our dedicated team ensures you have all the guidance you need to make informed decisions.
While the general principles of an expat home loan are similar to standard home loans, the process can be more intricate. Here’s a breakdown of how we handle these key aspects:
1. Foreign Income Consideration:
With expats earning income in different currencies, lenders assess your ability to repay based on both exchange rates and income stability. Oceania simplifies this process by factoring in these variables to ensure your income is converted and assessed accurately.
2. Flexible Deposit Requirements:
While expats may be asked for a larger deposit than Australian residents, Oceania offers flexibility with competitive deposit terms that help make the purchase process smoother.
3. Custom Loan Options:
With Oceania, you can choose from a variety of loan options, including fixed or variable rate loans, split loans, and interest-only terms, depending on what suits your financial needs best.
4. Streamlined Documentation:
We know that living abroad can make the process of gathering documents more difficult. That’s why Oceania is designed to reduce the paperwork burden by streamlining requirements and offering remote digital submissions.
5. Tax and Legal Considerations:
While we can’t offer tax advice, we partner with experienced professionals to ensure that the structure of your loan is optimal in light of Australian and foreign tax laws. We’ll guide you through the complexities of property ownership while abroad, ensuring that all financial obligations are managed effectively.
