How to help position a non-bank home loan in 5 easy steps

1. Acceptance

Start by helping your client understand why they may not be eligible for a loan with a traditional lender. Be empathetic and understanding of their situation.

2. Communicate the power of options

Outline the alternative options you’ve identified, highlighting how these products meet their needs. This will provide them with a level of comfort, even if they aren’t familiar with the brand.

3. Keep things real

Speak in terms your client will understand. For example, present repayments in a frequency that coincides with their pay cycle. Show case studies that highlight how nonbank loans have made a real life difference to people like them.

4. Make the flexibility visible

Be clear how the solution will help meet their long term objectives. And help them understand the way the lender can review their situation over time, to consider new options as things change.

5. Proceed with the application

With your client’s blessing and consent, you can proceed with their application.
