    You should be able to borrow 80% of the value of the property to use for whatever purposes you wish.

    Mortgage Insurer is a different entity to the bank. LMI requirements take priority.

    You can try another lender who doesn’t use that insurer.

    There are few fixed rate offset accounts if any.

    Fixed rate lending is a whole different kettle of fish.

    But the bext of both worlds can be achieved with a cocktail loan if that is what the borrower requires.

    Allen,

    The only exceptions I know of are where the house has been an IP before you move into it.

    Or if you have claimed part of the mortgage on your tax because the home is also income producing ie home office or renting part out.

    I think you can amend tax returns going back four years.

    See an accountant.

    It acts like the interest is being charged on $40K instead of $50K. There are other benefits too.

    It will cost you the same but he will be getting a cut of the comission. He will be keen to see you buy it rather than you get the best deal.

    Offer him an incentive to negotiate really low for you if you think he will be better at it than you maybe [cigar]

    Cheata,

    A quick glance at your figures tells me you can move now.

    If I acted for you I would consider topping up one of the loans for a deposit and then borrowing 80% of the cost of the next IP seperately on it’s own mortgage.

    Easy enough to set up and you can get the best rates out there – possibly a Professionals Package.

    But as the others say – take your time and buy well!

    All the best,

    Well you need to work out the advantage of the 50% CGT reduction after 12 months and determine which is better for you.

    If it is funds you need then you can use the equity in that property to buy the next one if you need to. No need to sell.

    Lenders are happy with a recent statement or letter from the agent.

    If you have 50% equity in a property then you need no deposit at all – if the numbers stack up OK.

    Find yourself an Australian Broker who can work via email and fax with you and have him sort out your finance.

    Good luck!

    Many banks expect LMI to be paid upfront.

    Not all though as your broker suggests.

    IO = Interest Only

    It means you aren’t paying down the principal amount. You shouldn’t pay down any deductible loans until the non deductible ones are paid out.
