Whether you’re buying your first home, investing in property or refinancing an existing loan, Nice Loans helps Sydney borrowers compare potentially suitable finance options available through our approved lender panel.

High property prices, competitive auctions, lender postcode restrictions, and constantly changing government incentives mean choosing the right loan can make a significant difference to both your borrowing power and long-term position.
At Nice Loans, we help Sydney buyers compare home loans from more than 40 banks and lenders, considering your circumstances, lender criteria, rates, fees and relevant features.
Whether you’re purchasing your first home, refinancing an existing mortgage or expanding your investment portfolio, we provide clear advice from application through to settlement.

The amount of stamp duty or transfer duty you pay depends on the property’s purchase price and whether you’re eligible for NSW first home buyer concessions. Eligible first home buyers may pay no stamp duty on homes valued up to $800,000, with concessional rates available for properties valued between $800,000 and $1 million under the First Home Buyer Assistance Scheme.
Your borrowing capacity is determined by several factors, including your income, living expenses, existing debts, credit history, employment, and the size of your deposit. While Sydney property prices are generally higher than those in many other Australian cities, lenders assess affordability using the same lending criteria and serviceability requirements.
Check your borrowing capacity with our borrowing power calculator to help understand your budget before you begin your property search.

The NSW First Home Owner Grant and Stamp Duty Exemption are two separate government initiatives that provide different types of financial assistance.
