Why Your Finance Broker Keeps in Touch After Settlement

Two people shaking hands after a loan review

Your loan has settled and the work is done, so why is your broker still calling? Because a good broker isn’t just there for one transaction. Your loan, your business and the market all change over time, and a quick review can save you money or open up your next opportunity.

What we check when we get in touch

  • Your rate: is it still competitive, or could your current lender sharpen it?
  • Fixed rate expiry: what will your repayments become, and what are the alternatives?
  • Loan structure: do you still need interest-only, offset accounts or the same term?
  • Your equity: has your property increased in value enough to lower your LVR or fund the next purchase?
  • Your business: are you expanding, buying equipment, or facing a cash flow squeeze?

Why loyalty doesn’t always pay

Lenders often offer their sharpest deals to new customers. Existing borrowers can end up on higher rates simply because they haven’t asked. A regular review means you either get a better deal from your current lender or move to one that values your business.

Planning the next step

Most of our clients come back for their next deal: another property, a business acquisition, a fleet upgrade or a construction project. Staying in touch means we already understand your situation and can move quickly when an opportunity comes up.

Tip: tell your broker about big changes as they happen, such as a new contract, a change in ownership or a large tax bill. It’s much easier to plan finance ahead than to arrange it in a hurry.

How we help

We work with banks, non-banks and private lenders across our panel of 100+, so we can tell you quickly whether your current loan still stacks up. Read more about our business loans, commercial property finance and debt advisory.

Frequently asked questions

How often should I review my loan?

At least once a year, and whenever your circumstances change, such as a fixed rate ending, a change in income, or a new business opportunity.

Does it cost anything to have my loan reviewed?

A review conversation with Peak Capital is free. If refinancing makes sense, we’ll explain any fees and costs upfront before you decide.

Can my broker negotiate a lower rate with my current lender?

Often, yes. Lenders will sometimes reduce rates for existing customers rather than lose them, and a broker knows what other lenders are offering.
