How to apply


What you need to do to apply

To apply, you just need to complete an application form and show us that you have sufficient funds to complete the purchase at settlement.

 

Auction


Can I use the Deposit Power Guarantee at auctions?

Yes. A Deposit Guarantee can be issued prior to you attending an auction. The Guarantee amount is capped, but not the property details, so you can attend a number of auctions. You simply complete the vendor and property details on the Guarantee Certificate when you are the successful bidder.

 

Refunds


Can I obtain a refund if I don’t use the Guarantee?

Yes. If you return the unused, original Guarantee Certificate within 30 days of issue the fee will be partially refunded. An administration fee will be deducted and the balance will be refunded to you.

Refunds & Rebates



Can I claim a refund if I don’t use the Guarantee?
If you return the original unused, Deposit Power Guarantee within 30 days of the date of issue, the fee will be partially refunded to you.


Is there a fee rebate if the property settles before the Guarantee expires?

Yes. If a property settles more than six months before the expiry date of the guarantee, you can apply for a fee rebate, less an administrative fee.

To qualify for a rebate you must return the original Guarantee at least 6 months prior to the expiry date with a covering letter from either your solicitor or the vendor’s solicitor confirming the date the property settled. The rebate is based on the date the Guarantee was issued and subsequently received by Deposit Power.
