Our mindset had a quick jolt and is now growing in a different sphere. We've clarified what we want driven by the scope of information that was made av…[Read more]

Exactly what I was planning.Now with no properties to secure this against I'm looking for the best way to do this without having to fork out for expensive LMI….sounds like 85% LVR is the best the big loaners can give. Can any of the loan providers do better?

Thanks for the responsesWe've actually got enough cash to pay for 90%of the property, however we know this property would only last us 3-4 years until we have more children. We are planning on getting a two bedroom apartment in the inner city which we would like to hold even after we move onto another bigger place. This is the reason I do not w…[Read more]

I’m starting to understand. I’d like to confirm that I’ve got it right,
– Take out a mortgage of $144k on fiance’s IP. No mortgage insurance required.
– Take out second mortgage of $400k for PPOR. Use proceeds of $144k IP mortgage as deposit for PPOR. Again, no mortgage insurance required.
– We would still have $44k leftover possibly leave…[Read more]

Hi Mortgage Advisor,
Thanks for the top tips. I’ll have a talk to my accountant about financial recommendations on how to buy.
Regarding the 74% LVR was calculated as follows, assuming the loan is secured with both properties (IP value $180 and PPOR $500)
LVR = ($500k loan) / (security of $500k PPOR + $180k IP)
= 500 / 680
= 74%Does this…[Read more]

Thanks guys
Mortgage Advisor, if I use my fiance’s IP worth $180k (fully owned) and a loan for $500k my LVR would be 74%. With this scenario, I’m assuming for the first property I will not need a deposit.
