  • Don Nicolussi replied to the topic Home equity confusion – please help clarify! in the forum Finance 9 years, 4 months ago

  • Don Nicolussi started the topic Negative Gearing Removed – CBA in the forum Finance 9 years, 4 months ago

    Just a quick note for investors looking at borrowing with a base LVR of greater than 90% using CBA. In this case CBA will no longer allow negative gearing to be used in the assessment of your affordability / serviceability for investment loans. Eg, base lvr is 89% and end lvr is 91% (base plus lmi) you may use NG – if base is 91% you may not.…[Read more]

  • Don Nicolussi started the topic Opinions on Perth Market in the forum General Property 9 years, 4 months ago

    Change in dwelling values 12 months versus 10 years

    Looking for some opinions from either Perth Locals or investors in the Perth market. Wondering what part of the cycle the local evidence suggest you are in. 12 month data suggest a slight price contraction. What is next for Perth – any suburbs to watch?

  • Don Nicolussi replied to the topic Would you buy in a dodgy area? in the forum General Property 9 years, 5 months ago

    Absolutely not! I would look for an aspirational suburb next to and similar in price to your so called “dodgy area”. Some areas are just not great. Find your dodgy area and then look at places where people who live there aspire to live in (realistic people).Price will be similar and yields will be the same if you work hard and finding the right…[Read more]

  • Don Nicolussi replied to the topic Bank valuation VS Independent valuation in the forum General Property 9 years, 5 months ago

    What to do if your valuation comes in low? I agree with the comments that in the majority of cases the bank assigned valuation result will be the same as the contract price. In fact, at loan to valuation ratios of 80% and in some cases 90% lenders will accept the contract price as the value and not require a formal valuation at all.
