Local Driving Tips
Salt air from the bay
Living near Moreton Bay means salt exposure. Regular washing and undercoating help protect your investment.
Commute planning
The Gateway and M1 can be congested during peak hours. Consider a fuel-efficient car for the daily Brisbane run.
Island logistics
If you're on Russell, Macleay, or Coochiemudlo, vehicle access is via barge. Ground clearance for beach driving matters on Straddie.

Understanding Comparison Rates (What Banks Don't Tell You)
A 5% interest rate sounds great—until you discover $500 in hidden fees. That's why Australian law requires lenders to show a comparison rate: the true cost including fees and charges.
Example:
Loan A: 5% interest + $500 fees = Higher comparison rate
Loan B: 5.5% interest + $200 fees = Lower comparison rate (better deal!)
We always quote comparison rates so you know exactly what you're paying. No surprises, no hidden costs.
