Common questions
Good decisions start with good questions.
Who can act as a guarantor?+
Accepted relationships and requirements vary by lender. Parents are common, but the proposed guarantor must satisfy the selected lender’s policy.
Does the guarantor make the repayments?+
The borrower remains responsible for repayments, but the guarantor accepts obligations under the guarantee if the borrower does not meet the loan commitments.
When can a guarantee be released?+
Release is subject to lender approval and may depend on the loan balance, property value, repayment history and the borrower’s position at that time.
