A new pilot between realestateview.com.au and home loan marketplace Joust is set to up the ante for users onsite.

A statement announcing the pilot program said the partnership would “help millions of Australians find the right finance solution when looking to buy, sell or invest in property”.

For realestateview.com.au chief executive Toby Balazs, the partnership “provides our audience with access to a better home loan product and puts the power back in their hands”.

“We want to help our property seekers at all stages of their property journey,” he commented, flagging that the 1.1 million property seekers who utilise the website on a monthly basis would now have the ability to save, on average, $3,500 per year on monthly repayments by refinancing through the platform.

“This partnership is formed based on our mutual alignment in getting the best outcomes for our customers.”

Joust CEO Carl Hammerschmidt has also considered the partnership as “a great opportunity to leverage the platform’s high volume of active property seekers with Joust’s deep customer data to provide the best outcome for the consumer”.

He said that the open, transparent and competitive process to aid property seekers in finding a suitable home loan product at the lowest rate is vital “with the cost of living skyrocketing and interest rates continuing to rise”.

With the integration already live, Mr Hammerschmidt said they “look forward to broadening our reach to continue to help millions of Australians with their property transactions”.

This latest announcement follows a busy period for View Media Group — the company that holds a controlling stake in realestateview.com.au — which has announced two acquisitions in the past six weeks: The Today Business and AD Group
