✓ Less reliance on overtime, and no lenders mortgage insurance (LMI)Consolidated two credit cards, a car loan and Zip.
✓ On track to move to a mainstream lender within 6 monthsOur 2-stage plan
We roll your debts into one loan with the lender that suits your situation today. Sometimes that's a specialist lender, if your credit has taken a hit or the banks have said no.
Once you've built a record of on-time repayments, we look at refinancing you to a mainstream lender. That can mean a lower rate and even lower repayments.
Names have been changed to protect client privacy. Figures show the reduction in monthly repayments for individual clients. Outcomes depend on your financial situation, loan terms and lender criteria. A lower monthly repayment may mean more interest is paid over the life of the loan if debts are repaid over a longer term. Stage 2 depends on your repayment history, financial position and lender criteria at the time, and is not guaranteed.
Is this you?
High-interest debt on separate due dates eats your cash flow. If you own property, restructuring it into one loan at a home loan rate can change that fast.

"Most people I speak to thought they'd run out of options. Their bank had said no, or they didn't realise their home could be part of the answer. More often than not, there's a way to get them back on top."Tom Carmody, Founder, Craft Financial
"Tom made the whole process of buying our home so much easier and far less stressful than we expected. He was patient, honest, and always quick to respond whenever we had questions, no matter how small. His knowledge and guidance gave us real confidence at every stage, and we always felt like he genuinely had our best interests at heart."
"We refinanced with Craft after moving from our previous broker. Tom and Dane kept on top of communication at each point, went above and beyond to find us the best rate for our situation and ensured all our options were laid out and clear. They were honestly a lifesaver when we were working against the clock after our previous fixed rate ended. Very impressed."
