Hi ASU,
If the problem lies with the mortgage insurers i.e. GE & PMI then perhaps ask your Broker to approach the lenders who self insure, failing that if 90% is the max available then you may need to borrow the remainder via a personal loan etc. cheers.

Hi BJMACA,
You should have no problems extracting equity subject to meeting serviceability and the lenders policy.

Regarding the 100% PPR loan, there are quite a few lenders/Banks currently offering these 100% products, Adelaide Bank have a fairly good 100% owner occupied product at the moment.

However if you have equity available then you may…[Read more]

Hi Poochi,
$1K seems very steep, on average $270 – $300 is the norm,
However, if you intend to refinance in most cases the incoming lender will include the cost of the valuation in the application fee, Cheers.

Hi Bluemist & welcome to the forum,

You could use the equity available in your current property to fund the deposit and closing costs on the next purchase,
Basically you would have 2 loans, the first loan = 20% and closing costs etc of the new purchase, this would be secured by your current property, and the 2nd loan would be 80% of the contract…[Read more]

To add to Terry’s excelent comments,
It doesn’t necessarily have to be a LOC, you can also achieve this with a split loan, offset etc. cheers.

Hi Jadam,
$10K is insufficient to cover your stamp duty & closing costs on a $325K purchase let alone a deposit.

If you have equity I would suggest you could use that to fund the 20% deposit and associated costs, then set up a separate loan at 80% LVR secured by the new purchase, this structure will avoid crosscolaterisation and the need for LMI.…[Read more]

Hi quyhutmau & welcome to the forum,

The 107.5% construction loan allows you to borrow 100% of the combined land and construction cost,
