General advice disclaimer

The short version: everything on this site is general information. It is not advice about your situation, and it is not an offer of finance.

What that means

This tool provides general information only, not personal financial or credit advice. The figures are estimates based on what you entered — they are not an offer of finance and not a guarantee of eligibility. They don't take your objectives, financial situation or needs into account. Please confirm anything you plan to act on with a licensed professional.

The calculators

Every calculator on this site produces an estimate. They are built on published rates, thresholds and formulas, and they show you the assumptions they used — but they are simpler than the models a lender or the State Revenue Office actually runs.

  • An estimate of what you could borrow is not a pre-approval and not a loan offer.
  • An indication that you qualify for a grant or scheme is not a guarantee of eligibility. Formal confirmation comes from the State Revenue Office or a participating lender.
  • Estimated costs, duty and insurance premiums will differ from the final figures on your statement of adjustments.
  • Government schemes, thresholds and lending rules change, sometimes at short notice. We update the figures behind these tools as they change, but always confirm anything you intend to act on.

Questions and answers

Answers given through the member Q&A, and anything published in the public FAQ, are general information written for a general audience. They do not take your objectives, financial situation or needs into account, and they are not personal credit assistance.

The course

The learning modules are educational. They describe how things generally work in Victoria for first home buyers. They are not recommendations to buy, to borrow a particular amount, or to use a particular lender or product.

Getting advice about your situation

If you want advice that does take your circumstances into account, book a consultation. That conversation is a different thing to this website: it involves collecting your details, and it is provided under the appropriate credit licensing arrangements, with a credit guide and consent process.

Errors

We work hard to keep the figures current and correct, but we do not warrant that everything on this site is accurate or complete at any given moment. If you spot something wrong, please tell us — we'd rather know.
