All Topics / Finance / Brokers pls help – Serviceability issues!
Hi Brokers:)
My problem is that I’ve got 2 IPs and a block of land (owned jointly) and am having problems getting finance for further properties.
After talking to my broker he says that I and my partner can only borrow $190k jointly as we are unable to service a higher amount. Anyway, I’ve heard that when people face serviceability issues they start looking at low doc loans??
Our aim is to purchase a PPOR for around $240k and to get the stamp duty etc included in the loan, so I guess the total amount we are looking for is around $250-$260k.
I’ve listed our situation below so if any brokers out there (preferably Perth based) can help us, I look forward to hearing from you:)
Cheers
Wayne

http://www.homesearcher.com.au – List your property for FREENo need for low doc at this stage, keep in mind most lenders use a different debt serviceability ratio.
Based on your figures your maxed out with a few lenders, but by my calculations you do qualify with other Banks/lending institutions when taking into account the neg-gearing on your current portfolio.I would suggest you borrow 80% on the PPR with the remaining 20% and stamp duty etc via equity in your Merriwa IP, Cheers.

Hi Wayne
I am with Steven although at 3.08am I was watching England destroy the Aussies and not answering questions.
If you broker is having problems it is very easy -change brokers.
Good luck.

Hi Steven & Richard,
Thanks for your replies!
Steven you mentioned that I could probably borrow through other lenders – could we borrow up to the $250-260k mark?
Also do you have a list of the lenders you are referring to? And are their interest rates higher than average?
All my loans are currently with Westpac on 3yrs fixed @ 6.89%.
cheers
