Through the use of bond originators you can get the best possible deal. Originators deal with banks every day and negotiate on your behalf at no cost to you, to get you the best deal. They only get paid a fee from the bank for your successful bond application.

This is very useful when you are applying for a bond. It saves you the time and effort of going to several banks and negotiating for it yourself. The originator will negotiate with all the banks for you and ensure that you get a good deal.

Having someone who knows their way around the complicated world of home loans is a great advantage to have. Originators have all the experience required to easily understand and explain the lingo, and if there’s a problem with your credit application, a bond originator can give you all the advice you need.

Only getting paid if your bond application is successful motivates your bond originator will go above and beyond the call of duty to see to it that you get what you want. If you win, they win, and fortunately, because of their buying power they are much more likely to negotiate better terms with a bank than someone attempting it on their own.

The benefits to you are multiple. You only have to apply once, and it’s free. Your application is sent to several banks and you are supplied with their offers and can choose the one that suits you. The originator knows exactly what paperwork is needed, and he can help you get everything sorted out. It’s also a lot faster than applying to banks yourself.

One major hurdle for bond applicants is the never ending red tape, not to mention the intimidating experience of going to a bank to apply for a bond. A good originator can act as your go-between and make the experience a lot simpler, easier, and less stressful for you.

If you have trouble, or have had trouble getting a loan in the past, a bond originator can give you the right advice. They have a lot of specialized knowledge and experience, not to even mention resources. Their greater access to a wider variety of lending options and institutions will help to ensure that you get the bond you need. At the very least you will leave with the advice you need.

Giving good advice is something that banks do badly, especially if it means they might lose a sale. An originator has an independent and objective outlook on the process and will give you better advice than most banks, it’s in his best interests to make sure you get what you need. If the originator doesn’t get you what you need, he doesn’t get paid.

While bond originators have been active in other parts of the world for many years, they have only made their appearance in South Africa in the last few years, and as a result banks have had to make their offerings more competitive. This competitive spirit has helped to push down rates and for once, put a smile on the face of the consumer.
