What is an Evolve Workplace Visit?
An Evolve Workplace Visit is where Evolve brokers attend your workplace for a half day or full day and hold private 1:1 lending meetings with employees. These meetings may cover home loan reviews, refinancing, first home buyer preparation, borrowing capacity, home loan pre-approval, or general buyer-ready discussions.
Who is it suitable for?
It is suitable for workplaces with 5 or more employees who may be interested in reviewing their home loan, buying property, refinancing, investing, or understanding their borrowing position.
Is this a seminar or a private appointment?
The focus is private 1:1 meetings. This allows employees to discuss their own circumstances confidentially. A short introduction can be provided if helpful, but the main value is in individual appointments and workplace lending sessions.
What does the employer need to provide?
Usually, the employer only needs to provide a suitable private meeting room, help promote the opportunity internally, and allow employees to book times. Evolve can assist with the communication and booking structure.
Does the employer see employee financial information?
No. Employee discussions are private. Evolve does not share personal financial information with the employer.
How long does each employee meeting take?
Appointments will generally run for around 20 to 30 minutes, depending on the format of the visit and the number of employees booked.
What should employees bring?
Employees do not need to bring everything for a full loan application. However, it can be helpful if they have a basic understanding of their current loan balance, interest rate, repayments, income, debts, savings, or property goals. If more detail is needed, we can explain what to provide later.
Can employees review their existing home loan?
Yes. A home loan review is one of the main reasons employees may book a meeting. We can discuss their current loan structure, interest rate, repayment position, lender options, and whether further review may be worthwhile.
Can first home buyers attend?
Yes. First home buyers often benefit from understanding their borrowing capacity, deposit requirements, lender expectations, and the steps they should take before making an offer or applying for finance. This may include booking a first home buyer appointment to prepare thoroughly.
Can self-employed employees attend?
Yes. Self-employed lending can be more detailed, and different lenders assess income in different ways. We can help self-employed employees understand what lenders may look for and what information may be required.
Can employees discuss investment property loans?
Yes. Employees can discuss investment lending, borrowing capacity, equity use, loan structure, and general lender considerations.
Is there any obligation for employees to proceed with Evolve?
No. The meeting is designed to provide clarity and guidance. If an employee would like further help, they can choose to arrange a follow-up meeting with Evolve.
Is there a cost to the employer?
This can depend on the workplace location, number of employees, visit structure, and whether a half-day or full-day format is required. We can discuss the most suitable arrangement with the employer before confirming the visit.
How many employees are needed?
Evolve Workplace Visits are generally suited to workplaces with 5 or more interested employees.
Can you visit multiple office locations?
Yes, depending on location and availability. We can discuss single-site visits, multi-site visits, or staged sessions for larger employers.
Can meetings be held online instead?
Yes. If an in-person visit is not practical, we can discuss online 1:1 meetings for employees instead.
