## Fees and expenses

Generally I won't charge you any fees for the financial advice I provide to you. This is possible because, on settlement of a loan, I usually receive commission from the lender [which is explained in the commission section of this Disclosure Guide]. Any exceptions to this general position are explained below. If these exceptions will apply to you, I will let you know.

### One-off fees

I may charge you a one-off fee if the following occurs:

When I don't receive commission from the lender: If you request that I provide financial advice and I do not receive a commission from the lender, I may charge you a one-off fee. Any such fee would be agreed and authorised by you in writing before I complete the services, and would be based on an estimate of the time spent providing the advice.

This may arise in the rare event that you request that I provide services in relation to either a product that is offered by a lender that I do not hold an accreditation with, or a product that is outside my usual arrangements with my approved lenders.

You will be invoiced for any one-off fee and will be given 30 days to make payment.

### Commissions & Incentives

On settlement of a loan I usually receive a commission payment from the applicable lender.

The commission is generally of an upfront commission payment but I may also receive an ongoing trail commission payment. The upfront commission is calculated as a percentage of the loan at drawdown. A trail commission is calculated as a percentage of the loan outstanding at the relevant time.

I may also receive a fixed rate roll over fee from the applicable lender if I assist in refixing your loan.

The maximum percentage that each lender uses to calculate upfront and trail commissions, and the maximum fixed rate roll over fees [refix fees], are set out in the table below. If there are any variations to these percentages or other commission payments that may apply, specific to your loan application, I will disclose this to you as part of my advice process.

I may also receive a referral fee or commission payment if I refer you to our referral partners listed above. I will give you more information about how that referral fee or commission is calculated, before proceeding.

From time to time, I may receive incentives or rewards from lenders. For example, they may provide me with gifts, tickets to events or other incentives.

| Lender | Upfront | Trail | Refix |
|--------|---------|-------|-------|
| ANZ | 0.85% | 0.00% | $150.00 |
| Westpac | 0.60% | 0.20% | $0.00 |
| BNZ | 0.55% | 0.15% | $0.00 |
| ASB | 0.85% | 0.00% | $150.00 |
| ASAP Finance Limited | 0.80% | 0.00% | $0.00 |
| Avanti Finance | 0.80% | 0.00% | $0.00 |
| Cressida Capital | 1.00% | 0.00% | $0.00 |
| DBR | 1.00% | 0.00% | $0.00 |
| First Mortgage Trust | 1.00% | 0.00% | $0.00 |
| Heartland Bank | 0.80% | 0.25% | $0.00 |
| Liberty Financial Limited | 0.60% | 0.15% | $0.00 |
| Unity | 0.50% | 0.00% | $0.00 |
| RESIMAC | 0.60% | 0.15% | $0.00 |
| SBS Bank | 0.80% | 0.00% | $150.00 |
| Select Home Loan | 0.60% | 0.15% | $0.00 |
| Southern Cross | 1.00% | 0.00% | $0.00 |
| The Co-operative Bank | 0.70% | 0.00% | $150.00 |
| Basecorp Finance | 1.00% | 0.00% | $0.00 |
| Zip Business | 1.00% | 0.00% | $0.00 |
| CFML | 1.00% | 0.00% | $0.00 |

I manage the conflicts of interest arising from these commission payments by:

- Following an advice process that ensures I understand your needs and goals so that I always recommend the best product for you regardless of the type and amount of commission I will receive.
- Ensuring the amount of any loan is in accordance with your identified needs.
- Providing you with the table below showing commission rates and types by lender
- Undertaking regular training on how to manage conflicts of interest.
