Clarity for Melbourne property buyers and investors
Finance advice that goes beyond brokerage
Buying, building, or refinancing a property in Melbourne should be exciting — not overwhelming.
At 42 Advisory, our residential finance specialists combine accounting precision with strategic finance advice to give you clarity, not confusion.
We’re not brokers chasing commissions. We’re an advisory-led, fixed-fee finance team who look at the whole picture — your tax position, business structure, investment strategy, and long-term goals — before recommending any loan.
Our process is calm, transparent, and data-driven.
From first-home buyers to seasoned investors, we help clients across Chadstone, Glen Waverley, Malvern, Ashburton and surrounding suburbs secure lending that fits both their property goals and financial realities.
We don’t sell loans — we design lending strategies that support your life plan.

Common questions about residential finance in Melbourne
Residential finance FAQs for Melbourne home buyers, investors, and developers
What is residential finance and how does it work in Melbourne?
Residential finance refers to the funding options available to buy, build, or refinance property.
In Melbourne, this includes home loans, investment property loans, and construction finance offered by both banks and specialist lenders.
At 42 Advisory, we assess your financial position, compare lenders, and design a structure that suits your goals — not the lender’s incentives.
How do I finance a residential development in Melbourne?
Financing a residential development usually involves combining your own equity with construction or development loans.
We help clients in Melbourne secure tailored funding by:
-
Assessing project feasibility
-
Matching lenders based on risk profile and project scale
-
Managing progress drawdowns and refinancing post-completion
Our advisory process ensures funding aligns with your project timeline and financial plan.
Should I refinance my current home loan?
If your home loan is more than two years old, or if your interest rate hasn’t been reviewed recently, refinancing may help you:
-
Secure a lower rate
-
Access cash-out for renovations or investments
-
Simplify multiple debts
Our advisers can compare more than 50 Australian lenders and show you exactly what refinancing could save — without sales pressure.
What’s the difference between a mortgage broker and a finance adviser?
A mortgage broker arranges loans, often earning commissions from the lender.
A finance adviser, like 42 Advisory, provides strategic lending advice that integrates with your accounting, tax, and business structure — delivered under a fixed-fee model for full transparency.
We work for you, not the bank.
Can I buy property through my self-managed super fund (SMSF)?
Yes, but it requires a compliant loan structure called a Limited Recourse Borrowing Arrangement (LRBA).
We help Melbourne clients establish SMSF property loans that meet ATO rules and superannuation trust deeds while maximising long-term returns.
Are there special programs for first home buyers in Melbourne?
Yes — Victoria offers several assistance programs, including:
-
First Home Buyer Grant (FHOG)
-
Stamp duty concessions
-
First Home Guarantee (FHG) for low-deposit buyers
We’ll help you understand eligibility and coordinate your finance so you can enter the market confidently.
