    First speak to Council and ask what the zoning is to see if you can subdivide.

    Then get a feature survey done and contact a private town planner to organise what can be done.  Here is WA it would cost about $30k to subdivide including all fees and approvals etc.

    Don't worry now – RHG just advised me that they will not negotiate unless you pay a fee and start the whole process all over again.

    Yes exit fees can get you especially with a non-bank lender. I was with  Rams and they set up with a 5 yr interest only loan on my PPOR so now I can't switch to paying P & I until 2011.  Also found out that if I want to refinance with another bank they did not like my loans being all Interest Only.

    Westpac advised me that I was only paying Interest Only and not paying down any principle.  Good to know now that they change the view on these types of loans.

    Has anyone here renegotiated a loan with RHG? I am stuck with them until I can leave which will be who knows!!!!

    Sorry forgot to mention LOC against PPOR. Have not sold yet just seeking clarification and advised by accountant that can't claim it against income when asset sold.

    Thanks all

    But Richard does it mean I can borrow less because I still have the outstanding debt that I can also use for myself against PPOR. If this is so it would be a fair advantage to own your PPOR outright then and just have all deductible debt against other IP's etc.

    Is that a better way to do it?

    Can I also ask if you have a 100% offset accounta against your PPOR does this hinder you from borrowing more for IP's.  Should you aim to pay off the PPOR if that is the final PPOR you will live in.

    Excellent I thought that but forgot, There is some rumblings in WA about the govt cancelling stamp duty on houses.  That will make things easier to buy a house hopefully.
