Hi Mel
One of the benefits of using a Mortgage Broker will be the way in whch he or she structures the loan rather than just suggesting a particular product as a Bank would do.
Flexiblity is the key to a home loan these days as circumstances change and you dont want to be limited or tied in to a particular product.
Down the track you may wish to purchase an investment property or even turn your current property from a PPOR into an IP.
Remember your Bank manager will have no desire to ensure that our loan is flexible and suitable for your purposes only that he locks you up so that you are unable to leave.
He / she also maybe paid a commission from his employer for arranging your loan and therefore is also likely to be pushing an associated insurance product.
