17 Apr 2025 Podcast: Finance File – FHB’s 3-Year Journey to Purchasing with Foreign Income

In this episode of You Have My Interest, we’re diving into a real-life case study of first home buyers navigating a complex lending scenario.

We supported a couple with foreign income, a recent job change, and a goal of purchasing up to $1.1 million. Over a three-year period, we worked closely with them to build their deposit, improve their borrowing capacity, and ultimately secure their dream home.

You’ll also hear why lender policy really matters, the value of pre-approval, and why Macquarie Bank ended up being the right fit – thanks to competitive interest rates, lower LMI costs, and flexible income assessment.

If you’re curious about how brokers tailor solutions for unique situations, this one’s for you.
