A mortgage is a long-term financial commitment, so choosing a lender involves more than finding the lowest advertised rate. Nice Loans takes the time to understand your income, expenses, deposit, existing debts, property plans and future goals. We then compare potentially suitable loan options from our lender panel and explain the key differences in straightforward terms.
For Perth borrowers, this can be especially important where income includes FIFO allowances, overtime, bonuses or roster-based earnings. Different lenders can have different policies for assessing these components, which means the same income may produce different borrowing outcomes depending on the lender.
The Perth property market has also continued to evolve. REIWA reported that Perth houses were selling in a median of 23 days in July 2026, indicating a market that remains active while becoming more balanced than earlier in the year. Our role is to help you understand your financial position before you make a property decision, then guide you through the lending process from initial assessment through to settlement.

Western Australia has its own transfer duty system and first home buyer assistance programs. The thresholds can make a significant difference to the upfront costs of buying a home, particularly for buyers purchasing around the relevant price limits.
Eligible first home buyers may pay no transfer duty on an established or newly built home valued at up to $600,000, while a concessional rate can apply where the property’s dutiable value is above $600,000 and up to $800,000. For vacant land, eligible first home buyers may receive a full exemption up to $450,000, with a concession available up to $550,000.
The WA First Home Owner Grant can provide eligible first-home buyers with a one-off payment of up to $10,000 when purchasing or building a new home. From 7 May 2026, the value cap for homes south of the 26th parallel increased to $800,000. Note that the grant is not available for established homes, and eligibility requirements apply.
Eligible buyers may also be able to use an Australian Government 5% Deposit Scheme to purchase with a smaller deposit without paying Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI). Under the First Home Guarantee, eligible buyers can generally purchase with a deposit of at least 5%, subject to the scheme’s eligibility requirements, participating lenders and property price caps.
Perth is home to many FIFO and resources-sector workers. Because lenders assess roster-based income, overtime and allowances differently, we can compare lender policies to identify options suited to your employment and income structure. Some income components may be accepted in full, while others may be discounted or require a longer income history.
A first home buyer may be focused on deposit requirements and upfront costs. An investor may be more concerned with borrowing capacity, loan structure and cash flow. Someone refinancing may want to reduce their rate, access equity or restructure their existing debt. Nice Loans starts with your circumstances rather than a particular loan product. We compare potentially suitable options across our lender panel and explain the features, costs and considerations so you can make an informed decision.
Buying a home you intend to live in? Whether you’re purchasing your first property, upgrading to a larger home or buying a long-term residence, we can guide you through the process from assessment through to settlement.
Property investors often need to think beyond offered interest rates. Therefore, we compare suitable investment lending options and help you understand how different loan structures may fit into your broader property strategy.
Your existing home loan may no longer be the best fit for your circumstances. We can review your existing position, compare potentially suitable alternatives and help coordinate the refinancing process if you decide to proceed.
Guarantor loans may help eligible borrowers purchase a property with a smaller deposit by using the guarantor's property equity as additional security. Depending on the lender and loan structure, this can reduce your deposit and may help you avoid or reduce LMI.
Borrowing through a self-managed super fund is a specialist area of property finance. We can help coordinate the finance side of an SMSF property purchase and work alongside your accountant, financial adviser and legal adviser.
Construction finance is generally released progressively as building milestones are completed rather than as one lump sum payment. Your building contract, land purchase, construction budget and financial position all need to be considered.
Sometimes the right property becomes available before your existing home has sold. A bridging loan may allow eligible borrowers to purchase their next property while arranging the sale of their current home. We can assess your position and compare lenders that offer suitable short-term or bridging finance.
Property development finance is designed for projects that require funding for land acquisition, construction and related development costs. We can help developers explore potentially suitable finance options and work through the information lenders typically require before an application is submitted.
Before you apply for finance, it helps to understand not only how much you might be able to borrow, but also the upfront costs, repayments and ongoing commitments associated with the property.
Estimate the transfer duty that may apply to your purchase and explore whether you may qualify for a WA first home buyer concession or exemption.
Get an initial estimate of your potential borrowing capacity based on income, expenses, existing liabilities and other financial commitments.
See how your estimated repayments could change. You can compare weekly, fortnightly and monthly repayment scenarios to understand how different loan sizes may affect your budget.
Explore whether you may be eligible for the WA First Home Owner Grant and understand the property and eligibility requirements that apply.
Rental yield provides a simple way to compare the relationship between rental income and property value. Use the calculator to estimate gross or net yield and compare different investment scenarios before assessing the full costs of ownership.
Your debt-to-income ratio compares your total debt with your income. It can provide a useful indication of your overall leverage.
We keep the mortgage process straightforward, with clear communication at each stage.
Every lending journey starts with understanding your goals. Our consultation is completely obligation-free and designed to help you understand potential lending options & possible next steps.
We assess your borrowing capacity and compare suitable options across our lender panel to present potentially suitable options available through our approved lender panel.
When you’re ready to proceed, we handle your paperwork and liaise with the lender. We work to keep everything moving efficiently while keeping you informed throughout the process.
We’re there on settlement day and beyond. We review your loan periodically & compare it with potentially suitable options available through our lender panel.
Access to more than 40 lenders gives us the ability to compare a broader range of home loan options rather than limiting your choice to one bank. Our panel includes major banks, non-bank lenders, regional lenders and other participating financial institutions.
Mortgage brokers operate under legal obligations designed to ensure credit assistance is provided in the client’s best interests. Our role is to understand your circumstances, identify potentially suitable options and explain the reasons behind our recommendations.
For most residential mortgage broking services, you don’t pay us a direct fee. In many cases, the lender pays the broker a commission when a loan settles. Any applicable commissions and other relevant costs are disclosed to you as part of the process.
Lenders can assess FIFO, overtime, allowances, bonuses and roster-based income differently. We can compare the policies of lenders on our panel and identify potentially suitable options based on your employment history, income evidence & overall financial position.

WA transfer duty depends on the property’s dutiable value and the type of transaction. Eligible first home buyers currently have access to enhanced first home owner duty thresholds for transactions entered into from 7 May 2026. For eligible homes, no transfer duty is payable up to $600,000, with a concessional rate available up to $800,000. Eligible vacant land receives a full exemption up to $450,000 and a concession up to $550,000.
The First Home Owner Grant and the Stamp Duty Exemption are two different forms of government assistance. The First Home Owner Grant is a one-off payment of up to $10,000 for eligible buyers purchasing or building a qualifying new home and is not available for established properties. Meanwhile, the first home owner transfer duty concession reduces or removes the transfer duty payable on an eligible property. It can apply to qualifying established or new homes, subject to the relevant rules and thresholds.
For most residential home loans, Nice Loans does not charge borrowers a direct brokerage fee. Instead, the lender generally pays the broker a commission when a loan settles. Any applicable commission arrangements are disclosed as part of the credit process.
It can. The impact depends on the type of income you receive and the lender assessing your application. For example, one lender may accept a particular allowance or overtime component differently from another lender. Employment history, roster patterns, payslips, tax returns, bank statements and other supporting documents may also be relevant.
We work with borrowers throughout metropolitan Perth and across wider Western Australia. That includes established inner-city areas such as Mount Lawley and Subiaco, northern and coastal areas including Joondalup and Scarborough and growing outer-metro areas such as Ellenbrook, Alkimos and Byford. We also work with borrowers purchasing, refinancing or building further south, including areas around Rockingham and Mandurah.
