    One of the beauties of you wrapping the property to your daughter is you can set the sale price, interest rate and repayment program to suit her income.

    I am not sure i would waste money on a Financial Adviser (unlike myself not all of FA promote property) as most of them only have one thing at heart and that is there pocket and not yours,

    God carrying on like this I will get expelled.

    Couple of things to note.

    Most lenders will allow ther loan to be an interest only loan during the construction phase and then try and convert it to principal & interest on completion. Make sure the loan remains Interest only  with a 100% offset  account to the loan.

    When you decide to move out and into one of the IP's switch the offset account to the property in which you will reside in thus not only maximising your interest savings but also preserving the deductability of the loan interest.

    With regards to the house you will live in eventually you would be better off to undertake any work or renovation whilst it is an IP so at least you an claim the Building Write Off etc for a year or two.

    Hi Oryx

    Will answer the other questions later in the day but just on the finance front you would be able to obtain 80% lvr as a Foreign Resident with certain lenders.

    In the good old days like 6 months ago I would have said Yes you would be entitled to a partial refund but only if you sold it or refinanced elsewhere. Unfortunately these days no chance.

    Also if you are staying with the same lender then no refund would be available anyway.

    No wont be able to stop the name change going through if you have signed the Transfers and thee have been lodged.

    On the basis that it was an investment property when you first purchased it in 2001 then the purchase of $170K will be used.
    If using the concessionary rate as you have owned it over 365 days it isnt going to a be cheap exercise.

    Hi DWG

    Hate to say your advice is correct.

    There may a few things you can offset against the Cost Base but these are limited. 

    I would try and get a couple of letterhead valuations stating the estimated valuation as close to your original purchase price as possible.

    Problem with your strategy is that when you redraw the funds from the IP unless they are used for investment the interest is know not Tax deductible.

    Keep it in the offset account and you not contaminated the Tax deductability of the interest as well as having the funds on call.

    When you consider that the average 36 months fixed rate is around 125-150bps above the variable rate.

    This means you need to see 6 x 25bps increases just to meet the fixed rate level. You actually need 12 x 25bps increases to break even. That is 6 below and 6 above.

    Need to ask yourself are we going to see 12 interest rate increases over the next 36 months that is 1 every 3 months. 

    Remember lenders dont offer fixed rate loans for your benefit or to make a loss.

    Hi Suehe

    Rather than make a withdrawal from the fund why dont you look at merely buying the property in the name of your Suepranuation Fund (I am assuming it is a Self Managed Fund) paying cash for it and getting your daughter to rent it from you at a Commercial rent.

    If you wanted your daughter to take ownership of the property you could always buy it and then wrap to her on Vendor terms and both you and she would benefit. She would receive the First Home Owners Grant which she could use to discharge her debt to you.

    Certainly points to ponder.

    Hi Mimi

    With the equity you have you can purchase multiple properties subject to serviceability and do this immediately.

    Depending on how many you buy they would all be under an 80% lend.

    All you would do is use the line of credit to fund the deposit and costs again and take out a separate standalone loan on the investment property you are buying.

    If you are thinking that way probably not a bad idea to get the structure set up soon rather than later so you can jump when the time comes.

    Hydra

    Whilst in mimi's case and in most case investors borrow 100% of the purchase price + costs it is how it is funded that is important.

    Personally I wouldnt use my own PPOR as cross security for my investment property and that is why it is important to split the loans.

    What you would do once the IP has increased in value is shift the debt solely onto the IP security.

    With the above example i haveed to mimi let assume after a few years the IP valued had increased to $400,000 then 80% of this would be $320,000 and the investment loan would be increased from the original $240,000 to $320,000 with the $80,000 raised being used to discharge the portion of the IP loan secured against the PPOR.

    Eventually as time goes on you might have a dozen or so properties all with loans secured against them and your PPOR totally unencumbered.

    Hope that makes sense.

    Hi Mimi

    Yes if we do the figures.

    PPOR valued at say $275,000 x 80% = $220,000

    Existing mortgage of $68,500 linked to offset account
    Investment line of credit of $151,500

    New Invt property of say – $300,000
    Standalone loan of $300K x 80% = $240,000

    Balance of $60,000 plus acqusition costs funded from Investment Line of credit.

    IP 2 – Repeat as above.

    Hope this makes sense.
