From Separation to Settlement
THE CLIENT:
Mary-Jane is a Program Manager with the Department of Health. After separating from her partner, she found herself navigating the property market solo for the first time, determined to secure a fresh start in a home of her own.
THE CHALLENGE:
With her jointly owned home already sold and settlement looming in just weeks, Mary-Jane faced a race against the clock. She needed to find finance, and settle on a new property before her current home changed hands, or she would be left without a place to live. The pressure of coordinating a purchase while managing the emotional weight of starting over made timing absolutely critical.
OUR SOLUTION:
We turned to Macquarie Bank, knowing their streamlined process could deliver the speed Mary-Jane needed. Within 24 hours, we secured unconditional approval, giving her the certainty to move forward confidently. The loan was structured with a variable rate, plus an offset account and redraw facility to give her flexibility as she settled into her new chapter.
THE OUTCOME:
Mary-Jane purchased a townhouse for $912,000 with a loan of $729,600. Settlement was completed just two weeks after approval, perfectly timed before her previous home settled. She moved straight into her new place without the stress of temporary accommodation, ready for her fresh start.
