Hey Ches
Yes – it involves an application so a credit check occurs.
The bank will lend up to 80% of the properties value without LMI. Some will go to 90% which triggers LMI.
So look at this way – if you had a house worth $100k and a loan of $70k, you could borrow up to 80% of that $100k value ($80k) which means an equity release of $10k ($80k – $70k = $10k).
That $10k should be set up as a separate loan account.
Hope that helps.
Cheers

I’d prob allow a bit more for those purchase costs just to be safe – allow $3k if it’s covering legal, building/pest, rates reimbursement, etc.

Hi Ash
It’s different strokes for different folks.
Personally – I prefer land. You can do more with it and don’t have to deal/pay for pest body corp fees.

Agree with Mick on the investing with others issue. If you can avoid it – I would.
I’m also not a huge fan of mixing up property investing with other family members property (but that can be a personal decision).
The gifted deposit (which could be via equity) could be a good option. It means your mums house isn’t tied up with your IP.

I’m the same as Catalyst. I take notice – and factor it in, but it’s only part of a greater due diligence process.
I think the media likes to place a spin on it for headline grabs.

Definitely speak to a “good” accountant – there’s quite a lot to consider here.

Hi Phil
Welcome aboard.
The size of the deposit required would depend on the location.
Personally, I’m not a big fan of regional cheapies. Some investors do well – but some find it difficult to move forward with these properties in the portfolio. They might put a few dollars into your pocket due to strong yields but they usually have bugger all growth.

Hi Niro
Are you 100% sure you want to self manage?
Things may be going smoothly now – but that’s not when the property manager earns their money, it’s when things go wrong….which is inevitable, it happens and a good PM is a handy person to have on your side.
Cheers

Hey Shayne
Just let your solicitor know what you’d like to do and they’ll word it for you.
When you’re requesting early access for renos – you really need to go via the correct channels.

Pop over to the boarder and grab something cheap in the ACT :-)
$350 prob wouldn’t buy much here though – maybe something in the outter burbs in need of some love.
It’s certainly a buyers market at present.

Hi AV
Normal approach is to access equity in your existing property to fund the deposit/costs on the next.
Agree with above – best to use IO with an offset to avoid future taxation implications of redraw.

I thought he was quite entertaining and just offered another point of view.
Another point of view is fine – and I doubt the mods would have an issue with that. It’s personal attacks and belittling others that doesn’t sit well – and for good reason, it adds no value and is just cruel.
Admittedly I didn’t pay particular notice to his/her posts so don’t know why they were banned.

Yes insurance is very high…but this is as low as we could get….it used to be over $3000K per year with the bank who wanted to up it to $4K a year! For some reason you say Port Douglas or FNQ and the figures jump unjustifiably.
Ahh of course – FNQ!

Hiya
Are you claiming depreciation?
How come the insurance is so high? Can you get a better deal?
