Monthly repayments, once the base criteria are altered by the user, will be based on the selected products’ advertised rates and determined by the loan amount, repayment type, loan term and LVR as input by the user/you. *The Comparison rate is based on a $150,000 loan over 25 years. Warning: this comparison rate is true only for this example and may not include all fees and charges. Different terms, fees or other loan amounts might result in a different comparison rate.

        Am I eligible for a Tiimely home loan?

        If you can answer yes to the following few questions, there’s a good chance Tiimely can help you with a home loan.

        Property type – you’re buying or refinancing an established property (not off the plan or under construction). Units and apartments within a high-density complex are subject to additional criteria and require a 30% deposit.

        Location – you’re buying a home or investment property in a capital city or major regional centre.

        Deposit amount – you have at least a 10% deposit or equity, plus savings to cover fees and charges such as stamp duty. If you have less than a 20% deposit, you'll also need to pay Lenders' Mortgage Insurance (LMI). Loans above $2m require a minimum 25% deposit.

        Loan amount – you want to borrow an amount between $50k and $3m. Loans above $2m require a minimum 25% deposit. Funds in this instance can't be used for an equity release or 'cash out' refinance.

        Employment – you’re currently employed, either through PAYG or self-employment.

        • For full-time and permanent part-time PAYG roles, you've held your job for 6 months, or had 12 months of continuous service in the same industry.

        • For dependent contractor PAYG roles, you've held your job for 6 months, or had 2 years of continuous service in the same industry.

        • For casual PAYG roles, you've held your job for 12 months, or 6 months if you've had 2 years of continuous service in the same industry.

        • For self-employed roles, you've traded for 2 years and meet our other self-employment criteria.

        Eligibility criteria

        To be eligible for a home loan from Tiimely, you need to:

        • Buy or refinance an established home that’s worth at least $150,000. Lands or off-the-plan purchases aren’t eligible.

        • Have a minimum of 10% deposit or equity for an owner-occupied home loan, or 15% deposit or equity for an investment or interest-only home loan

        • Be an Australian citizen or permanent resident and live in Australia

        • Supply a form of ID for each applicant
