All Topics / Finance / buy to let mortgages
I am looking to emigrate in 2007 to the Perth area. I am wanting a bit of advice on investment in property in oz.
Is the buy to let mortgage similar to that of the uk in that you are required to have a 30 percent deposit of the purchase price of the property?
Any advise on this and possible development would be much appreciated…..
thanks roger….Hi Microbubble,
Lenders in Australia are far more attuned to lending on investment property than UK lenders and you can get up to 100% of the purchase price through a major lender (106% of the purchase price for a non-major lender), and the rental is counted in your serviceability. However, as a foreign national the maximum you could get would be 80%. You require approval from the Foreign Investment Review Board and you’re away. Feel free to contact me if you need any assistance.
Kind Regards,

For Australian residents there are no restrictions on the required deposit, e.g. 20% – 5% deposit and no deposit 100% finance is also available. Cheers.Regards

Perth in 2007? Better get something now before it goes another 20%. As most of the WA forumites well know, anything would be better than nothing right now. Theres been a heap of discussion on this & other forum re WA. And you’ve obviously seen the plethora of brokers than can assist in finance. Good luck!
