A guarantor supports the loan by providing us with an additional property as security. By providing a guarantee, we may lend to the borrower in situations where they may not have been able to secure the full amount of the loan they require. Independent legal and financial advice is required for these applications.)
- **Track your application online in real time with our Home Loan Application Tracker.**
