Mortgage broker Sunshine

Why Sunshine buyers use a local broker

Sunshine is where first home buyers and investors find value in Melbourne's west: houses around the $760,000 median, strong rents, and major infrastructure investment transforming the suburb into a transport superhub. Much of the housing stock is original-condition — solid homes that conservative valuers can underprice.

We know which lenders and valuers understand Sunshine's growth story, and we match your deposit and income to the lender most likely to say yes at the sharpest rate.

Sunshine lending insights we act on

• Houses around $760,000 fit the 5% deposit scheme cap — one of the closest-to-CBD suburbs where that's true for a house.
• Original-condition weatherboards: upfront valuations protect you from a shortfall after signing.
• Investor yields are among Melbourne's strongest — we structure loans to maximise deductible interest and cashflow.
• Large blocks with subdivision or dual-occupancy potential need a lender that prices the land component properly.

What we help Sunshine locals with

• First home buyer house and unit purchases under the scheme caps.
• Investment loans with interest-only and offset structures.
• Refinancing to release equity built up by strong price growth.
• Construction and renovation finance for older homes.

The Sunshine property market

Sunshine is a major western-suburbs hub benefiting from significant transport investment, including its role as a future interchange for regional and airport rail. Housing is a mix of post-war homes on decent blocks, newer townhouses and a growing apartment market near the station. Affordability keeps it firmly in first home buyer territory, and most purchases here sit comfortably within the Victorian concession and 5% deposit scheme caps.
