Does Qantas Money offer pre-approval?
No, we do not offer pre-approval or conditional approval for home loans at Qantas Money. We need to know the property you are applying for, in order to give you full approval. Unless we require a purchase contract to value your property, or need to complete a full valuation, this would mean you could bid at auction with maximum confidence.
