Thanks, given loan was $400k now $375k and the house is potentially worth $440k now…is that equity of $65k? Or do banks generally value your house on the low side thus reducing this? Should I be trying to max out my equity for the 2nd loan to reduce LMI?

Just to clarify….$400k loan with $375k owing….house how worth $430k ($30k equity)
Want to get a 2nd loan $400k for IP.
What is the best way to go about this for tax etc? Do I refinance my home loan to get the equity out as deposit for 2nd loan? but this would need to be a separate loan to claim it on tax?
