We’ve used Nick Freney and the team at Reduce Home Loans for both our first home purchase and our refinance, and both experiences were excellent.
Nick made the whole process smooth and stress-free from start to finish. He was easy to deal with, quick to respond, and always happy to answer our questions along the way.
We really appreciated the honest advice, clear communication, and support throughout the entire process.
Very happy with the outcome and would definitely recommend Nick and the team to anyone looking for a reliable mortgage broker.

We had an excellent experience working with Vaughan as our mortgage broker for our first SMSF purchase. From our very first meeting, he was clear, confident and incredibly knowledgeable, which gave us immediate reassurance that we were in good hands.
He was responsive throughout the entire process — always available to answer questions (no matter how small) and quick to come back to us when timing really mattered. We were working to a tight deadline, and he brought a real sense of calm and clarity when we needed it most.
What impressed us most was how forthcoming Vaughan was from the outset. At our first meeting, he came prepared with clear options and a well-considered proposal, openly talked us through the pros and cons, and set realistic expectations. He then followed through exactly as outlined — with honest advice and solid execution every step of the way.
If you’re looking for a broker who is proactive, transparent and genuinely supportive, we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Vaughan and Reduce Loans.

We got out latest mortgage through Mortgage Ezy and couldn't be happier. The interest rate was great and customer service excellent. Vaughn was very knowledgeable and made the process easy, supporting us throughout. He was very friendly, helpful and professional and answered all our questions, even after the loan settled. Thanks so much Vaughn, we will definitely be back.

I can’t say enough good things about Nick from reduced home loans. From the very start, he made the mortgage process feel smooth and straightforward. He took the time to understand our needs, explained every option clearly, and answered all of our questions patiently. I really appreciated how responsive him and his team were, keeping us updated at every step and making sure we felt confident in our decisions. With their help, we found a great rate and closed on time with no surprises. Highly recommend Nick for anyone looking for a knowledgeable, friendly, and reliable mortgage broker!

We have been with Reduce Home Loans since 2015 and they've consistently secured the best rates and account features for us. This month we refinanced to a very competitive rate thanks to our Personal Finance Manager Connor.
Connor provided us with helpful guidance and thoroughly answered all our questions. Everything was completed promptly and he was so responsive with our queries. The application process has also become much more streamlined and user friendly over the years.
Thanks to Connor (and previously Rhyse) at Reduce Home Loans, we've been able to achieve our dream of having a home for our family. We highly recommend them for their personalised, exceptional service and expertise, as well as their broad product offering. Thanks again!

He has been reliable, getting back to me quickly, calling when he says he will (great timekeeper). Very happy with the experience as I initially called 3 or 4 months ago, he has been very informative from tyre kicking/semi serious stage to now at crunch time. Definitely recommend working with him.

Overall, we are happy with our experience at Reduce. We moved from another non-bank lender, who wouldn't move our rate, despite their new owner rates being much lower, and our loans under what we originally borrowed. Nick and the team from Reduce were very easy to deal with, and our rate has been competitive since we started with them.

Using reduce loans has saved me a lot of money on our home loan. The staff are professional and caring, always easy to get in contact with and there to help with any questions you. The switch from one of the big 4 banks (wont name names of who was ripping us off!) was easy with reduce loans. I highly recommend anyone to get in contact and see how many money they can save you.

We secured a great loan with Reduce far below market rates of the large lenders. Was particularly impressed by their flexible banking style in setting up the loan and Nick Freeney was great to work with in the loan application. The only issue is the application process was longer and more admin intensive than some other loans so removing one star - but if you stick with it you can save a bunch over the life of the loan.

Your next home
If you are seeking your next home, we’ve got the best home loan, with great interest rates, for you.
Whether you are upsizing, downsizing or moving cross country, or even looking for a second home Reduce Loans has an amazing deal for you.
Your first decision is which home loan to choose. How do you know which one is right for you?
We are here to guide you through the mortgage maze. Before you take the first step towards owning your next home, here are some of the common terms you should recognise and understand:
Owner-occupier or Investor? (What is the loan for?)
Your lender will want to understand the purpose of the loan:
- Owner-occupied
You intend to live in the home. Generally seen by the lender as lower risk. Owner occupiers tend to ensure they can repay the mortgage on their home, plus they make sure the dwelling is well-maintained.
- Investment
Property investors can be put into the higher risk category, particularly if they plan to rent the property and use the rental income to repay all or some of the loan. Periods when the property is vacant may cause them financial difficulties.
Interest only vs Principal and Interest
Repayments for a Principal and Interest loan include a reduction in the capital value. When the term of the loan is complete, the property will be paid for.
An interest-only loan means lower repayments but depends on the property maintaining, or increasing, in value to pay off the outstanding loan capital.
Offset account
An offset account is separate from your mortgage account. Your wages are paid into the offset account and, when regular bills have been paid, the remaining balance is offset against your outstanding mortgage.
You will only pay interest on the revised balance, so using your offset account wisely can mean you repay less interest throughout the term of your home loan.
Extra payments on a home loan
At Reduce Loans, our variable rate alt-doc home loans permit you to make additional payments. This has the dual benefits of reducing the outstanding balance, so you will pay less interest, plus the balance of all your additional repayments is available to you, via the ‘redraw’ facility, below.
You can make additional payments at any time but there could be restrictions on the total additional payments within each year.
Redraw facility
A redraw facility against your mortgage account records the value of additional payments you have made. You are able to access and withdraw these funds.
You will find this convenient if you need money for emergencies such as medical bills, home repairs or any other unexpected expenses.
You should be able to redraw up to the value of all Additional payments you have made. Note that redraw facilities are likely to restrict the maximum amount you can redraw each time.
Loan to value ratio (LVR)
All mortgage lenders apply a loan-to-value ratio (LVR) against their accounts. The LVR determines the percentage of the purchase price of the property to be financed by your lender and the value of the deposit you will need to provide.
LVRs determine the type of loan as well as interest rates and the value of the deposit required.
You may be able to arrange a higher loan-to-value ratio for your mortgage. You should expect a higher interest rate if you have a high LVR. A low LVR may mean you will be required to provide a higher deposit for the loan but you can borrow more.
Settlement fees
Settlement fees, sometimes called early-exit fees, are applied if you pay off the entire outstanding loan before the end of the agreed term. They compensate your lender for losses due to early termination of the loan.
Preapproval for your home loan
Having a preapproved mortgage is essential if you intend to enter a bid for a property via an auction, giving you the confidence the funds are available to cover your bid.
Great service and the best home loan rates.
At Reduce Loans, we are proud to provide competitive home loan rates while delivering a first-class service to you. We work online for convenience and cost-effectiveness and our range of home loans has won multiple awards.
