    Jaime,

    What do you hope to achieve by investing together?

    Why are you doing it?

    It may sound like a great idea today but as others have mentioned it can get untidy in the future.

    I would prefer to do a project with others for a short term deal with clearly defined goals and an exit plan. Perhaps a buy – reno-sell or build and sell.

    All the best to you,

    Im wondering if anyone here is a bit of a health freak and knows of a good Exercise/Health Forum around the place similar to Property Investing?

    I’ve got a couple of questions about metabolism that I can’t really find through google.

    Drop me an email. My wife has a degree in PhysEd, A Masters in Biochemistry Research and is in 4th year Medicine atm. She will be happy to email you some answers to your questions if she can help.

    I have heard that Homepath are slow and frustrate many people with their service up to settlement however I have heard no complaints with their service post settlement.

    If you want a stripped down product then it may well suit.

    The answer for the student will be no I suspect.

    I suggest you contact the ATO then request a private ruling on it.

    Each lot of borrowing is determined as a new loan.

    Even a redraw is treated this way.

    The purpose of the loan/redraw determines the deductibility.

    I suggest you sek professional advice.

    Except of course that if you use the extra money for non income producing purposes yo will not be able to claim the interest on this component on your tax.

    I would recommend having a split on the loan to show the different loan amounts – certainly your accountant will thank you for it.

    You should disclose it to the lender, especially if you wish to do more than one.

    You will need a wrap friendly lender and a wrap experienced broker. Someone here should be able to make a recommendation.

    My solicitor forgot to get the rental paid in advance. Lucky the vendor was nice and paid as they didn’t have to.

    I would be very cross witth your solicitor and perhaps consider getting another on board. I would imagine $10 000 would be a small price to pay to avoid being taken to court in a small town country like NZ.

    It is a shame when you are paying a professional yet you need to double check what they do.

    A better idea might be to raise your current home loan by enough for a 20% deposit and purchase costs. Have them show this as a split so you can track the two amounts and pay them seperately.

    Then aply for a fresh loan for the new place with a 20% deposit. This will avoid LMI and cross collaterisation.

    Any broker worth his salt can achieve this for you. I would recommend you consider a professional package with any of the major lenders or the IFHL product.

    All the best,

    I agree gatsby – funny thing it seemed to come at the right time for me too.

    I usually disregard these American stories but this one struck a chord with me.

    This thread doesn’t apear to be of any further use to Sonja so I am locking it off.

    Contact another broker to double check the deal he has offered.

    Plenty here on the forum who will be honest with you.

    Stargazer,

    They are no tighter than other lenders, in fact in some areas I would consider them to have relaxed normal lending practices a surprising amount.

    If you are refinancing a current debt and income levels are unchanged then the process is almost automatic.

    Kind regards,

    Great post Purple.

    Anne, Factor in all the selling costs inc CGT. You might find selling becoming less and less attractive.

    Perhaps an answer is building the portfolio further?

    I believe there to be a lot of positives to ACT property and I personally wouldn’t be rushing out selling.

    There is a Caveat Emptor section over at somersoft. Be prepared to have your proposal examined pretty closely. They expect the story to be posted not just an invite for expressions of interest

    So don’t get married Rob. Express your love any way you feel as long as it isn’t illegal or doesn’t frighten the horses.

    Most major lenders require commercial terms for more than three dwellings on one title.

    I cannot recall a lender who doesn’t offhand but other brokers may do so.

    IFHL will do a 0% interest loan on any residential property.
