Guarantor Home Loan Specialists

Guarantor Loans

Get into the property market sooner with a family guarantee

A guarantor home loan allows a family member — typically a parent — to use the equity in their own property to support your home loan application. This can help you buy your home sooner with a smaller deposit, avoid paying Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI), and access better loan terms. LoanCastle's specialists guide both you and your guarantor through the entire process.

  • Buy with as little as 5% deposit — or even no deposit
  • Avoid paying Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI)
  • Limited guarantee options to protect your guarantor
  • Clear guidance for both borrower and guarantor

Family Guarantee Specialists

Buy your home sooner with a guarantor loan

Saving a 20% deposit in today's Australian property market is a significant challenge, especially for first home buyers. A guarantor home loan — also called a family pledge or family guarantee loan — allows a family member to use the equity in their property to support your purchase, helping you get into the market sooner.

With a guarantor, you may be able to borrow up to 100% of the purchase price, avoiding the need for a deposit and eliminating Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI) — which can save you thousands of dollars upfront.

LoanCastle's guarantor loan specialists will clearly explain the obligations and risks for both the borrower and the guarantor, and recommend lenders with limited guarantee options that protect your family member's equity as much as possible.

A guarantor home loan is where a family member (usually a parent) uses the equity in their own property as additional security for your home loan. This can allow you to borrow a larger amount, avoid LMI, or purchase with a smaller deposit. The guarantor does not usually contribute cash — they simply offer their property as security.
Most Australian lenders require the guarantor to be an immediate family member — typically a parent, though some lenders accept siblings or other close relatives. The guarantor must own property in Australia with sufficient equity and be able to demonstrate they can service their own financial obligations.
If the borrower defaults on the loan, the lender can pursue the guarantor and potentially force the sale of their property to recover the debt. This is why it's critical that the arrangement is clearly understood by all parties. Many lenders offer limited guarantee options that cap the guarantor's liability to a specific amount, reducing their risk exposure.
The guarantor can typically be released once the borrower has built up sufficient equity in their property — usually when the loan-to-value ratio (LVR) drops below 80%. This is achieved through a combination of property value growth and loan repayments. Our brokers will set clear milestones for guarantor release from the outset.
