What is a mortgage top-up?
<strong>Topping up your home loan</strong> means extending your borrowing either in the same loan or by taking out an additional loan. Often home renovations such as a new bathroom or kitchen, or adding a pool, or a new car or wedding, are funded by adding to an existing mortgage. Talk to your Next Door adviser about your options.

What is a non-bank lender?
Non-bank lenders (also known as alternative lenders) play an increasingly important role in the financial market, delivering multi-billions of dollars in loans across the world. They're registered lenders, with loans subject to the same forms of regulation as banks, but with a more flexible set of loan products. Often non-bank lenders are a good choice for self-employed or borrowers who have encountered a major life event that has impacted their credit history (such as a relationship break-up or redundancy/job loss).
The key difference is the way non-bank lenders assess an individual's ability to pay back a loan. They look past credit scores and into a person’s history and life situation to carefully assess their ability to manage the loan, with each case decided on its own merits. Banks are more risk averse - so while someone might be considered too high a risk from a bank’s perspective, non-bank lenders are often willing to take on that risk because they’ve done a comprehensive assessment of that individual's circumstances and financial position.
Next Door's panel of lenders includes the market's best non-bank lenders, ensuring our advisers can scour the market to find a loan that fits your current needs and future aspirations.
