What Banks Really Look At When You Apply for a Home Loan (Australia 2025)

Описание: Think your income is enough to get a home loan in Australia? Think again.
I’ve seen clients on $80k get approved over others earning $120k — because it’s not just about how much you earn, but how your finances are structured.

In this video, I break down exactly what Australian banks look at when assessing your home loan application in 2025 — and how to give yourself the best chance of approval.

🔍 What You’ll Learn:
• How income is actually calculated (including casuals, commissions, bonuses & overtime)
• How HECS/HELP debts, credit cards, Afterpay, and car loans reduce your borrowing power
• Why a $10k credit card limit can cut your approval by up to $50k
• The truth about living expenses, HEM, and what banks use behind the scenes
• How banks “stress test” your loan at +3% interest
• What role your deposit, guarantor, equity, or First Home Guarantee plays
• Why two people on the same salary can get wildly different loan results

💡 The big takeaway?
Structure matters more than salary. If you understand how lenders assess risk, you can play the game smarter and get loan-ready faster.
