Outsource Financial currently has a national network of mortgage specialists to assist clients to obtain credit products including home loans, investment loans, personal loans, credit cards, and consumer leases.

– ANZ
– Macquarie Bank
– NAB
– ING Direct
– Westpac
– St George

We will need information from you:

Under the NCCP Act, we are obliged to ensure that any loan or principal increase to a loan we help you to obtain, or any lease we help you to enter, is not unsuitable for you.  To decide this, we may need to ask you some questions in order to assess whether the loan or lease is not unsuitable.  The law requires us to:

1. make reasonable inquiries about your requirements and objectives;
2. make reasonable inquiries about your financial situation;
3. take reasonable steps to verify that financial situation.

Credit will be unsuitable if at the time of the assessment, it is likely that: you could not pay or could only pay with substantial hardship; the credit will not meet your requirements and objectives. Additionally, we must ask you to provide us with a significant amount of accurate information. If we give you credit assistance we must also provide you with a copy of our preliminary credit assessment of your application if you ask within seven years of when we assist you.  If we arrange a loan for you remember you must make your own inquiries about the value and future growth of the security property. Also, note that any valuation we obtain is for our own use. 

Fees payable by you

Outsource Financial does not charge you for the services it provides. However, our credit representatives sometimes charge fees for their services. More details about the fees payable by you will be documented in the quote. You may also obtain more information from your credit representative about how these fees are worked out.  You may also be required to pay a lender’s application fee, valuation fee, government charges, and other transaction fees.   

Commissions received by us

We may receive commissions from the lenders and lessors who provide finance for you as our customers.  These are not fees payable by you.  You may obtain from us information about a reasonable estimate of those commissions and how the commissions are worked out.

Commissions payable by us

Outsource Financial and our credit representatives source referrals from a broad range of sources.  For example, we may pay fees to call centre companies, real estate agents, accountants, or lawyers for referring you to us.  These referral fees are generally small amounts and in accord with usual business practice.  These are not fees payable by you.  You may, on request, obtain a reasonable estimate of those commissions and how they are worked out.

Our internal dispute resolution scheme

At Outsource we are committed to the effective handling of complaints and timely resolution of disputes.

You can also speak with any representative of our business who will refer you to the Complaints Officer.  You should explain the details of your complaint as clearly as you can verbally or in writing. When we receive a complaint, we will attempt to resolve it promptly.  We will observe the following principles in handling your complaint:

– we expect that both parties will make a genuine attempt to resolve a complaint promptly;

– we expect that both parties will provide all essential and relevant information, documents, written statements, and any other materials that may properly and reasonably be believed to assist in resolving the complaint;
