Keep these five questions handy as you explore homes. Use them to start a conversation with your household, your adviser and the selling agent.
- What do we love about this home—and does it fit the life we are planning?
- What deposit do we have, and what savings do we want to keep?
- What repayments would fit our everyday spending and commitments?
- What purchase, moving and ongoing property costs do we need to check?
- What finance, contract and property checks are needed before we commit?

Home finance questions for Fletchers buyers.
Can FRF help with a home loan for a property in Mooroolbark?
Yes. FRF supports buyers in Mooroolbark and surrounding areas from our Ringwood office, with phone and video appointments also available. Start by discussing your deposit, income, commitments and plans. Lending suitability and approval require an assessment of your circumstances.
Will this tell me exactly how much I can borrow?
No. This is a starting point for a conversation, not an instant borrowing-power calculation. A reliable assessment needs your circumstances and supporting information. Any loan is subject to lender assessment and approval.
Do I need to have found a property?
No. You can speak with FRF before you begin inspecting, after an open home or while planning a future move.
Do I have to use FRF if I am buying through Fletchers?
No. You choose your finance adviser and lender. Speaking with FRF does not commit you to a loan or to purchasing a property.
Will my financial details be sent to the selling agent?
This page does not collect financial details or send them to an agent. Booking details are provided through Calendly to arrange your FRF conversation. If you want us to coordinate with your agent, we will agree with you what information can be shared. Read our privacy policy.
