It's our way of saying thank you.

Our essential services workers keep our communities safe and are often working tirelessly behind the scenes. We want to show our appreciation and say thank you. This is why we offer our Essential Services Packages to help essential service workers with home and investment loans.

How can the Essential Services Package help me?

The package offers the following benefits for both home and investment loans:

No LMI for up to 90% LVR

To avoid paying Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI), you generally need to have a 20% deposit, which gives you a Loan to Value Ratio (LVR) of 80%. With our Medical Professional Package, you can borrow up to 90% LVR and we'll waive the LMI premium.
