We do not provide financial advice services relating to :
You will need to consult an appropriate specialist if you would like advice on the above.
I may receive commissions at settlement from the relevant lender if you choose to take out a mortgage following my advice. The commissions are between .55% and 1% of the initial mortgage balance or amount funded. I may/will also receive .15% to .20% of the mortgage balance on each anniversary.
The commission I receive is shared with Infinity Financial Services Limited for providing me with compliance support, training, and back-office support.
Conflicts of Interest
I get paid commissions by lenders when a mortgage settles and in some cases at the mortgage anniversary each year.
I ensure that I priorities your interests by following an advice process that considers your circumstances and goals. I research suitable products and providers to ensure the advice meets your needs.
I also undergo annual training on how to manage any conflicts of interest and record any conflicts in a register that we review and manage.
Infinity Financial Services Limited is subject to a yearly audit and compliance reviews to ensure we meet our obligations while doing right by our clients.
Generally, you won’t be charged any fees for the financial advice I provide to you. This is possible because, on settlement of a loan, the lender usually pays commission to me [which is explained in the commission section of this Disclosure Guide]. Any exceptions to this general position are explained below. If these exceptions apply to you, I will let you know.
One-off fees
I may charge you a one-off fee if the following occurs:
(a) If you request that I provide financial advice and I do not receive a commission from the lender, I may charge you a one-off fee. Any such fee would be agreed and authorized by you in writing before I complete the services and would be based on an estimate of the time spent providing the advice. This may arise in the rare event that you request that I provide services in relation to either a product that is offered by a lender that I do not hold an accreditation with, or a product that is outside my usual arrangements with my approved lenders.
(b) Commission must be repaid: If you make certain changes to your loan, the lender can require me to repay to them the commission I received for your loan – this is called a ‘clawback’ and can be up to 100% of the commission. If this occurs, I may charge you a one-off fee. Set out below are the circumstances in which this would apply and the fee that would be charged to you.
| Changes that trigger a clawback | Relevant time period | Amount & calculation of one-off fee |
| Your loan is fully or partially repaid, or the terms materially changed. | The changes occur in the 28-month period following drawdown of your loan. | Generally, no more than $5,000 (plus GST, if any). Calculated based on a rate of $250 (plus GST, if any) per hour of my time spent providing advice to you in connection with the applicable loan. The fee would not exceed the amount of commission that needs to be repaid to the lender |
You will be invoiced for any one-off fee and will be given 30 days to make payment.
Adviser fee
Some lenders charge a fee which is capitalized (or added) to the amount of your loan. This fee is normally calculated as a percentage of your loan at drawdown but can be a flat fee. Please see tables 1 & 2 at the back of the guide for further information.
Home Loans Infinity Loans will charge a fee of $3000 for home loans we get approved for you, but you decide not to proceed with it because you decide to go to another lender, your approval has lapsed without you availing the loan or for non-disclosure of key information. These fees are to compensate for the work we have done to get the loan approved. We will charge the full commission amount that we would have received from the lender if after your loan is approved you decide to go to another adviser or approach the lender directly for disbursement.
If following payment default by you we undertake enforcement action we may charge you for all costs and solicitor’s fees and disbursements (on a solicitor and own client basis) and debt collection agency fees and disbursements and the costs and disbursements of process servers and any agents required to assist with such enforcement action.
