    Generally, how are the financial institutions currently treating requests to increase existing lines of credit ? For instance, if I wanted to increase these to 75% LVR, how should I expect them to react to such a request ?

    you are borrowing money so you must meet all the usual requirements, including ‘cash out’ restrictions.
    business as usual.

    Thanks Terry,

    I’m not familiar with cash out restrictions. How do they typically work and what do they involve ?

    banks basically don’t want to give borrowers borrowed money without a purpose. Small amounts may be ok, but larger amounts they will want to know what you are going to use the money for and they may want evidence too

    All depends on the lenders policy and your borrowing capacity.

    Some lender are still ok with cashouts up to 80% for investment purposes – it generally involves a full application process.

    Cheers
