Debt consolidation
Debt consolidation will combine all your debts into a single loan or one credit card amount, which may make this a beneficial option if you have been managing multiple loans or credit cards and you are wanting to consolidate them. Debt consolidation will leave you with one loan which means you will now only have one repayment cycle.

Bridging loans
A bridging loan can ensure you have time to sell an existing property when purchasing a new home, without the added stress of having to line up, and time settlement dates. There are many features of a bridging loan which include utilising flexible lending criteria, being fast to arrange, utilisation of an interest-only bridging loan and being convenient.
Our team at Greenline can provide you with the lowest bridging loan rates and answer any questions you may have about the loan approval process.
Construction loans
A construction loan is commonly referred to as a drawn-down loan, as the loan is drawn down progressively to pay for each stage of the construction process. Generally, for the first 12 months of the loan the loan is based on an interest only basis, then the loan will generally revert to principal and interest payments. A major benefit of a construction loan for many people is the advantage of managing your cash flow effectively throughout the building stages.
A construction loan generally contains 5 stages which trigger the progression of the draw down. The 5 stages include slab down or the base, frame stage, lockup, fixing and completion. Get in contact with our experienced team at Greenline Home Loans who can assist you with any further questions about the process or information regarding construction loans.
Cash out – equity release
A cash out/equity release may be the best option if you are looking to meet some personal goals such as renovating your home. One of the main benefits of owning your home is being able to have access to the equity in your property and use it as collateral when you are looking to make home improvements such as renovations.
The features of a cash out equity release include prolonged repayment terms, a possibility of tax-deductible interest, lower interest rates and fixed interest.
