About shaper.

You know the process. We know the pitfalls.

This isn’t your first rodeo. But moving or upgrading can still be financially messy if it’s not structured properly.

We’ll make sure your next home doesn’t come with regrets - by lining up the right loan, timing, and features before you sign.

At Shaper, we help homeowners move homes (and mortgages) with intent. If you're looking for any of the following, we can drive a better outcome:

Use equity to reduce cash upfront
Move without a financial juggling act
Avoid double repayments while bridging
Change your loan structure at the same time

We'll also talk you through some smart features and benefits that can make the move even better:

Bridging Loans

Buy before you sell & remove 50% of the stress.

Loan Portability

Move your existing loan to your new property

Offset & Redraw

Keep access to your cash

Interest-Only Periods

Free up cash during the move

Equity Release

Tap into your current property to fund the upgrade

Special Lenders

Same-day settlements, bridging, and faster approvals.

Shaper handles everything - from paperwork to payout - so you don’t have to chase banks.

We work with a large panel lenders from major banks to niche lenders. We’ll take your situation, and show you what’s possible: better rates, fixed vs variable, offset accounts, redraw, and more.

How It Works When You’re Upgrading or Moving

1.

We review your current loan

We start by reviewing your current mortgage. How it’s structured, what’s owing, and what flexibility you have. No pressure, just clarity on whether a shaper could make sense.

Time: as quick or deep as you want.
Outcome: Clarity on whether it makes sense to move forward.

2.

You tell us your goals

Buying before selling? Selling first? Need bridging finance? We’ll shape the path based on your plan.

Time: typically 24 hours.
Outcome: To get you an indicative rate and quote, without impacting credit score.

3.

We match you with the right lender + features

Offset, redraw, portability, interest-only? You get tailored options - not just the Big Four. We’ll build the right mix.

We shape the deal, structure the application, and do the admin. You stay in the loop.

Time: Begins as soon as you're happy with step 2.
Outcome: Loan selected and applied for.

4.

We guide you through the transition

From approvals to settlement, we’ll make sure no detail’s missed. You get approved fast, and we take care of the exit paperwork.

You'll receive a written lender approval, and your full loan docs, ready to e-sign.

Time: Typically 2-4 days, depending on the lender.
Outcome: A mortgage shaped to you.

We Know the Timing, So You Don’t Miss the Window.

Moving is a juggling act. Whether you’re buying before you sell or upgrading to a bigger place, we’ll shape your loan to support the transition - not stress it.

We know what the banks don't say out loud. The tweaks that speed up approvals. The lenders who get commissions, bonuses, and salary packaging.

We make sure your loan is optimised for your actual situation - not just a checkbox on a screen.

We won’t suggest changes unless they truly support your next move - and we’ll show you the numbers either way.

Make your next move your best one.

Whether you're upsising, or just starting fresh - we’ll help your loan keep up with your life.

What structure can really do.

We're mortgage brokers, technically.

But most of our clients say they feel like they've finally found someone who gets it.

Home Move Loan for a Client in NSW

We bridged the gap - without the stress.

They needed to buy before they sold, but timing was tight. We structured a bridging loan that worked with their current lender and gave them the breathing room to buy with confidence.
Home Upgrade Loan for a Client in NSW

We didn’t wait for the books to catch up.

A fast-growing business meant our client’s books didn’t show the full story. We used an accountant’s letter and a low-doc channel to get them into their dream home before it disappeared.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Why wouldn't I just go straight to my bank?

A bank is a group of brokers who can only sell you their own products. Shaper isn't restricted to a single lender. So we can often be much faster, much more cost-effective, and more flexible to your work.

A bank might see ‘truck’ or ‘tractor’ and just think numbers. We see how it fits into your work and your cash flow - and we fight to get you the best deal without all the red tape.

Do I need full financials to apply?

Not always.

Many of our clients go through a low-doc process - that means instead of full financial statements, we just need your ABN and GST registration. We can usually get you approved without the mountain of paperwork.

How fast can you get me approved?

Sometimes the same day. It depends on your situation and the lender we match you with, but we always push to get you an answer quickly - especially if you’ve already found the truck or machine you want.

Can you finance used trucks, utes, or machines?

Absolutely. Whether it’s fresh off the lot or a workhorse with some years on it, we can usually finance it. If it’s on TruckSales, FarmMachinerySales, or ConstructionSales, we can probably help.

What if I’m buying from a private seller?

No problem. We finance both dealership and private sales. We’ll help with the checks and paperwork so you’re protected and the process is smooth.

My cash flow is seasonal - can you work around that?

Yes. We regularly work with farmers, contractors, and operators whose income goes up and down with the seasons. We can structure your repayments to match your earning patterns, so you’re not squeezed in the quiet months.

I’m based in the country - does that make things harder?

Not at all. Our brokers work with clients all over Australia, from remote farms to city workshops. Everything can be done online or over the phone, and we’re used to working around patchy reception and long hours.

I’ve heard about ‘low-doc loans’ - what does that actually mean?

A bank is a group of brokers who can only sell you their own products. Shaper isn't restricted to a single lender.

We shape your options based on your life - not a banks commission targets.

Low-doc just means you don’t have to provide full tax returns or detailed financials to apply. Instead, we use alternative ways to prove your ability to repay - like your ABN, GST registration, and bank statements. It’s designed for business owners who don’t have everything neat in a folder (and who does?).
