hi kyleethe question of whether u can service the loan of 382k plus 650K or not is up to you.. you need to work out your income and expense to decide it for yourself.

hi nordi
i bought a servicing apartment in melb recently. My bank, CBA wont lend coz it is too risky for them, my lawyer put me on this mortgage broker, who still couldnt do anything and try to put me to this high fee high interest loan.
