Do I need to visit the Osborne Park office to use a Claremont broker?

No. Most Claremont clients run the first conversation by phone or Zoom, then visit our Osborne Park office once to sign documents. Some prefer to come in for every meeting. Both work. We are at 22 Hasler Road, Osborne Park WA 6017, open 8:30am to 5:00pm weekdays and by appointment on Saturday.

What does a mortgage broker cost in Claremont?

Nothing, in almost every case. The lender pays Central Lending Solutions a commission at settlement, around 0.65 percent of the loan amount plus a small ongoing trail. The Best Interests Duty under the National Credit Act requires us to recommend the loan that is in your interest, not the one that pays the highest commission. We are audited on it.

Q: What is the median house price in Claremont?

The median house price in Claremont sits around $1.95M as at 2026. Claremont Quarter retail, premium townhouses, downsizers + young pros. Lender appetite at this price point is broad and competitive, but the right lender depends on whether the property is established, a knock-down-rebuild, or apartment stock, and on your borrower profile.

Claremont sits on the Swan River between Cottesloe and Nedlands, with a median house price around $1.95 million and a strong premium townhouse market around the Claremont Quarter. The buyer mix is downsizers leaving Dalkeith, young high-income professionals trading up from Subiaco, and family upgraders moving in for the school catchment. Lender appetite at this price point is broad and competitive. We settle Claremont loans regularly from our Osborne Park office, twenty minutes north.

Local context

Why Claremont is two lending markets at once.

Claremont splits into two distinct property types: established character homes south of Stirling Highway, and the dense premium townhouse and apartment stock around the Claremont Quarter and the railway station. The lender story is different for each. Character homes share the same valuation quirks as Nedlands and Dalkeith. Premium townhouses get assessed on rental yield, strata costs, and lender exposure to high-density stock, and the LVR tolerances tighten in tower-style buildings over six storeys.

What works for a Claremont upgrader buying a $2.4 million character home does not work for a downsizer buying a $1.4 million Quarter townhouse. We match each application to the right lender for the property type, not the postcode alone.

How we help

How a Claremont buyer should think about lending.

For townhouse and apartment buyers around the Quarter, the binding constraint is usually lender policy on the building, not your borrowing capacity. Some lenders blacklist specific Claremont towers entirely because of completion concerns or postcode caps. Others have no restriction. Knowing the lender policy on the exact building before you sign the contract saves the awkward conversation later. For character home buyers south of Stirling Highway, the conversation is about offset structure, bridging, and the same upfront valuation discipline we use in Nedlands.

Common question

Do I pay a fee to use a broker in Claremont?

No. The lender pays us a commission at settlement, so most clients pay nothing out of pocket. Under the Best Interests Duty we are legally required to recommend the loan that is right for you, not the one that pays us the highest commission. We are audited on it. On the typical Claremont $1.8 million loan, the commission we earn is meaningfully less than the rate discount we save you over the life of the loan.
