    If you're eligible and choose to start an application with us, it will take approximately 25-30 minutes.

  2. Conditional approval

    Now find out how much you can borrow - so you'll know how much you can afford before you put in an offer.
  3. Formal loan approval

    So, you've made an offer on a property. Exciting times! To move to formal approval you'll need to meet any outstanding conditional approval conditions. Then we'll send you documents to sign.

  4. Settlement

    Keystart's settlement agent will liaise with your settlement agent to organise settlement.

    Once settlement has occurred you can move into your new home!
