Collaborate with Soar Finance to add value to your clients

Why Partnering With a Finance Broker Helps Your Clients — and Your Business

When your clients are making property, investment or business decisions, finance is often the factor that determines whether they can move forward with confidence. Partnering with Soar Finance gives accountants, real estate agents, buyer’s advocates, conveyancers and other professional advisers a trusted finance specialist to support clients through that crucial part of the journey.

For your clients, it means clearer guidance and a more coordinated experience. For your business, it means stronger relationships, better-informed clients and a valuable professional network built around delivering great outcomes.

Finance Is Part of the Bigger Picture

Whether a client is buying their first home, upgrading, selling and purchasing again, investing in property, building, refinancing or acquiring an asset for their business, finance rarely sits in isolation.

A client may come to:

  • An accountant to discuss tax, cash flow, business growth or investment strategy
  • A real estate agent to sell their existing property or purchase their next one
  • A buyer’s advocate for support finding and securing the right property
  • A conveyancer or solicitor once they are ready to transact
  • A financial planner to consider longer-term wealth and investment goals

But before a decision becomes reality, the client often needs the right lending structure, borrowing capacity and loan solution in place.

That is where a finance and mortgage broker can add real value. Rather than asking clients to navigate lenders, policy requirements, paperwork and loan options alone, a broker provides dedicated support through the lending process.

At Soar Finance, we help clients across a broad range of lending needs, including owner-occupied home loans, investment loans, construction finance, refinancing, commercial lending, business finance, asset finance and personal lending solutions. Our role is to understand the client’s circumstances and goals, then help them explore suitable options with clarity and confidence.

A Better Experience for Your Clients

Your reputation is built on the quality of the experience you deliver. When you introduce a client to another professional, you want to know they will be treated with care, professionalism and respect.

Soar Finance is built around clear, honest and personalised advice, with a focus on putting the client’s goals first. Based in Melbourne and supporting clients across Australia, we take the time to understand each client’s situation rather than applying a one-size-fits-all approach.

A referral to Soar Finance can help your client access:

  • A clear understanding of their borrowing position before they make major decisions
  • Support comparing lending options rather than approaching one bank alone
  • Guidance through documentation, lender requirements and the application process
  • A lending strategy that considers their immediate needs as well as their broader goals
  • A responsive, human point of contact when questions or changes arise
  • Finance support that fits around a property purchase, business opportunity, investment plan or life change

For many clients, the finance process can feel complicated or overwhelming. The right broker helps turn uncertainty into a practical next step.

Why Accountants Partner With Soar Finance

Accountants are often among the first professionals to understand a client’s financial position, business plans and longer-term objectives. You may identify that a client is considering purchasing a property, refinancing debt, buying equipment, expanding a business or investing through the appropriate structure.

While you provide essential tax and financial guidance, Soar Finance can support the lending side of the equation.

Add value without stepping outside your role

A partnership with Soar Finance gives you a reliable place to refer clients when lending becomes part of the conversation. We work alongside your advice, not in place of it.

You remain the client’s trusted accountant. We provide specialist finance support to help bring the strategy to life.

Help clients act on opportunities

Clients may delay a property purchase, equipment upgrade or business expansion because they are unsure what is possible. A timely referral can help establish their finance position early, allowing them to make decisions with better information.

For example, a business owner may be considering new vehicles or equipment to support growth. While you help assess the commercial and tax implications, Soar Finance can explore asset-finance or business-finance pathways so the client has a clearer understanding of how the purchase could be funded.

Strengthen client retention

When clients feel their adviser has connected the dots across their financial world, they are more likely to see the value of the relationship. Referring them to a trusted finance partner demonstrates that you are thinking beyond the immediate task and helping them progress towards their goals.

Why Real Estate Agents Partner With Soar Finance

In real estate, momentum matters. Buyers who understand their borrowing capacity and have appropriate finance preparation are generally in a stronger position to act when the right property becomes available.

A finance-broker partnership can help agents support buyers earlier, improve communication and build confidence throughout the sales process.

More informed buyers

A buyer who has not spoken with a broker may be unsure of their budget, deposit requirements, lending options or capacity to purchase. This can lead to uncertainty, missed opportunities and delays.

Introducing buyers to Soar Finance can help them better understand:

  • What they may be able to borrow
  • What costs to allow for beyond the purchase price
  • Whether pre-approval may be appropriate for their circumstances
  • How their income, deposit, existing debt and property plans may affect their options
  • What documentation they may need to prepare before making an offer

This helps buyers engage with the market more confidently and realistically.

A smoother path from enquiry to purchase

Finance can be one of the most stressful parts of buying property. When clients have a knowledgeable broker supporting them, agents can spend less time managing uncertainty and more time helping clients find or sell the right property.

Soar Finance supports clients through research, comparison and loan paperwork, helping them navigate the process rather than approaching a single lender without specialist support.

Stronger client relationships

A useful referral is more than a transaction—it is a service gesture. When you connect a buyer or vendor with a finance professional who communicates clearly and genuinely cares about their outcome, you reinforce your own client-first reputation.

The goal is not simply to help a client secure a loan. It is to help them move through a major financial and property decision feeling informed, supported and looked after.

A Collaborative Partner, Not a Transactional Referral

The best professional partnerships are built on shared standards: clear communication, mutual respect and a commitment to the client’s outcome.

Soar Finance aims to make the referral experience straightforward for both clients and referral partners.

What you can expect

  • A professional, client-centred approach from the first conversation
  • Clear communication and timely updates, with the client’s consent
  • Respect for your relationship with the client
  • A tailored approach to each client’s circumstances and goals
  • Support across personal, property and business lending needs
  • A long-term partnership mindset, rather than a one-off transaction

We understand that your referral reflects on your business. That is why we focus on making every interaction professional, approachable and easy to understand.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a construction loan and how does it work?

A construction loan is a type of home loan specifically designed for people who are building a new property rather than purchasing an existing one. Unlike a standard home loan where the full amount is released at settlement, a construction loan is typically drawn down in stages that align with the progress of the build. For example, funds may be released at the slab stage, frame stage, lock-up stage, and so on, right through to completion. This structure means you generally only pay interest on the amount that has been drawn down at any given time, rather than the full loan amount from the start. Construction loans can be more complex than standard home loans, which is why having an experienced broker like Soar Finance in your corner can be particularly valuable.

Can Soar Finance help me if I want to invest in property?

Yes, Soar Finance works with property investors at various stages of their investment journey. Whether you are purchasing your first investment property or looking to expand an existing portfolio, we can help you explore lending options that align with your investment strategy and financial position. Investment lending can differ from owner-occupier lending in a number of ways, including how lenders assess your income and existing debts. We take the time to understand your goals and present options that are suited to your circumstances. We always encourage clients to seek independent financial and tax advice when it comes to investment decisions, as our role is focused on the lending side of the equation rather than broader financial planning.

How long does the loan application process take?

The timeframe for a loan application can vary depending on a number of factors, including the lender, the complexity of your situation, and how quickly the required documents can be gathered and verified. In general terms, once we have all your information and documentation in order, a lender may take anywhere from a few business days to a couple of weeks to assess and approve an application. Some lenders move faster than others, and some situations require more thorough assessment. At Soar Finance, we work to keep the process moving as efficiently as possible by being thorough upfront and maintaining clear communication with both you and the lender throughout. We will always keep you updated so you know what to expect at each stage.

How does Soar Finance get paid?

In most cases, finance brokers in Australia are paid a commission by the lender once a loan settles. This means that in the majority of situations, there is no direct cost to you for using our services. We are required by law to act in your best interests under the Best Interests Duty obligations that apply to mortgage brokers in Australia. Before we proceed with any application, we will be transparent with you about how we are remunerated and whether any fees apply to your particular situation. Some services may require a fee, which will always be disclosed via quotation prior to commencement. We believe in open, honest communication so you always know exactly where you stand. If you have any questions about how we are paid, please do not hesitate to ask us directly.

Why should I use a finance broker instead of going directly to my bank?

When you go directly to a single bank, you only see what that one lender can offer you. A finance broker like Soar Finance has access to a panel of lenders, which means we can compare a range of products and present options that may be more suited to your specific needs and goals. Beyond the comparison itself, we also handle much of the administration and communication involved in a loan application, saving you considerable time and effort. We explain the process in clear terms, help you understand what documents are required, and keep you informed at every step. Having a knowledgeable professional in your corner can make a meaningful difference, particularly if your situation is complex or you are new to the lending process.

Who does Soar Finance work with?

Soar Finance works with a wide range of clients across Melbourne and throughout Australia. Our clients include first home buyers who are stepping onto the property ladder for the first time, experienced investors looking to grow their property portfolio, owner-builders and those seeking construction lending, as well as people who need personal loans or vehicle finance. We welcome clients at all stages of their financial journey, whether you have a clear plan in mind or you are just starting to explore your options. No matter where you are in the process, we are here to provide friendly, professional guidance tailored to your individual circumstances.

What types of loans can Soar Finance help me with?

Soar Finance can assist with a broad range of lending needs. For property, we help clients with home loans for owner-occupiers, investment property loans, and construction loans for those building a new home. We also assist first home buyers who may be eligible for government schemes and grants. Beyond property, we can help with personal loans for a variety of purposes and vehicle finance to help you get behind the wheel of a new or used car. Whatever your lending need, we take the time to understand your goals and circumstances before recommending any particular path forward. Our aim is to make sure the solution we explore with you is genuinely suited to your situation.

What does a finance broker actually do?

A finance broker acts as a go-between for you and a range of lenders, helping you find a lending solution that suits your personal situation and goals. Rather than approaching a single bank on your own, a broker like Soar Finance does the research, comparison and paperwork on your behalf. We take the time to understand what you are trying to achieve, whether that is buying your first home, investing in property, building a new home, or financing a vehicle. From there, we present options from multiple lenders and explain each one in plain language so you can make an informed decision. Think of us as your guide through the entire lending process, from your first conversation right through to settlement.

How do I get started with Soar Finance?

Getting started is straightforward. Simply reach out to us through our website or contact us directly to arrange an initial conversation. There is no pressure and no obligation involved in having that first chat. We will take the time to listen to what you are hoping to achieve, ask some questions about your current situation, and give you a clear picture of how we can help. From there, if you are ready to move forward, we will guide you through the next steps, including what documents you will need to gather and what the process looks like from start to finish. We are based in Melbourne but work with clients right across Australia, so do not hesitate to get in touch no matter where you are located.

I am a first home buyer. Can Soar Finance help me?

Absolutely. Helping first home buyers is one of the most rewarding parts of what we do at Soar Finance. Buying your first home is a significant milestone, and we understand it can feel overwhelming when you are not sure where to start. We will walk you through the entire process in plain language, from understanding your borrowing capacity to gathering your documents, submitting your application, and preparing for settlement. We can also discuss whether you may be eligible for first home buyer government schemes or grants available in Victoria or your relevant state. Our goal is to make sure you feel informed and confident at every stage, so you can focus on the excitement of finding your first home.
