    You need to get expert advice elsewhere Majic – I'd give Terry a call.

    Yeah looks fine.

    Just make sure that the banker doesn't cross up both properties (they tend to do this without the borrower being aware).

    Another thing to touch on is that both properties are going to be at high LVRs. It looks like you'll be taking the PPOR up to 90% and the IP purchase will be around 90% or higher. Not all banks will be comfortable with this level of exposure – sometimes we use two different lenders to get around this. One for the equity release and another for the IP purchase.

    Cheers

    Hi Paul

    Your plan sounds about right.

    The end result is three loans.

    PPOR

    Loan 1: Your current PPOR loan

    Loan 2: Equity release against PPOR to cover deposit/costs on IP (can be an IO loan or LOC)

    IP

    Loan 3: Remaining balance for IP

    As mentioned above, make sure they take into account the LMI you've already paid on your PPOR when carrying out the equity release – this should save you heaps. 

    Cheers

    Hi mattliasiian

    Let's take it back a step.

    Are you planning on renting this place out at some point and purchasing another PPOR?

    Cheers

    Going direct can also be luck of the draw in terms of the quality of the banker you get.

    I get nervous going to my local bank branch for anything because some of the staff are hopelessly incompetent (sounds harsh but it's the truth). I tried switching an offset account from one loan to another and it was an extremely painful process. 

    Cheers

    Hi All

    I'd like to hear from those people who have made it out of the rat race how long it took them to make a reasonable portfolio and then make good their escape. This escape may have been to a self-employed business or to a villa in Tahiti.

    Tom.

    Hiya Tommy

    The majority of the stories in API and YIP magazines features these articles. Some are truly inspiring, some you take with a grain of salt. Either way, I'm sure you'll find plenty of interesting reads.

    There's also a collection of interviews on somersoft from regular posters who have done quite well out of investing. Might be worth checking out some of those too.

    Cheers

    Wow – learnt something new today! 

    Sounds like a few investors do the 90% +15% personal loan scenario. I'll consider that for the next one. 

    Thanks Richard.

    Another option that works for some people is a gifted deposit – a gifted deposit that covers off 10% plus costs will usually get the deal done on a 90% lend with the right lender.

    Cheers

    Option 3 Take out a 105% standalone loan with a 15% personal loan and 90% traditional loan.

    Thanks for the help so far everyone, I'm keeping all options open. Wouldn't the above option not be possible because when you apply for a home loan you need to declare all debts? So if you can't use a loan to fund another loan? I thought that was illegal?

    Cheers

    Alex

    Nothing illegal about it. You just declare where the deposit/costs are coming from.

    Hi and welcome aboard.

    Student accommodation rarely makes for a good investment – especially if you're searching for capital growth. On the surface, the rental yields may appear strong but high holding costs can quickly erode those returns.

    Banks aren't a huge fan of them either – you'll require a large deposit to get the deal done.

    All in all, they're not my favorite IP type – but some people do buy them.

    Cheers

    I have one excel spreadsheet set up – it has a separate page for each IP.

    I capture the income and expenses of each property once a month. I keep all receipts in an envelope for each FY.

    If I had more time, I'd scan and electronically file all receipts/invoices.

    I also have a hard copy file for each IP – which holds all paper correspondence. Again, if I had more time this would all be electronically captured.

    Cheers

    settlement….and use it from redraw when you are ready…is that right? that means i don't need offset accounts then…

    Yep that's right.

    Yep it's possible – just ensure that the bank isn't crossing up your loans. Also, is there a chance that this property could become an IP down the track (your current PPOR I'm talking about)?

    Hi Junk

    Are you considering turing the PPOR into an IP down the track? I couldn't find any reference to this.

    In any case, IO for a PPOR can be a good option.

    Yep pretty sure that's what he meant. I think there was a similar post about it.

    Agree with Richard – there's no point in paying a premium for a LOC product, especially with ANZ, when an IO variable loan will end up having almost identical benefits. I think there might be a minimum redraw of $2k with ANZ (that's off the top of my head though) – but apart from that, it makes sense to save yourself a little on the rate and go IO. I don't think I've ever actually set up a LOC with ANZ for any clients. It's always been IO.

    Cheers

    I prefer old all the way. Especially old properties that can be cosmetically renovated for a quick equity gain. That's how I got started with investing and is a strategy I continue to employ.

    I agree with the other guys about paying a premium for new – the same concept applies to almost all goods.

    Cheers
