    Most commercial lenders require at least a 30% deposit. Smaller is achieveable if you are willing to pay.

    If you have other property with equity this can be used rather than a deposit.

    Simon,

    In the case of using your equity in your property how would morgage insurance work if you needed to include it at what %. And could you please tell me the curent fixed interest> (Lowest)

    And i was told that the term of the commercial loan may only be for ten yeare, therefore higher repayments on property.

    The mortgage insurance would be applied to a residential property if the loan had to go above 80% in order to realise sufficient deposit for the commercial property.

    Current fixed rates on commercial or residential? and over how many years?

    Check it out yourself on http://www.cannex.com.au

    Some lenders have 10 year P&I commercial loans – see NAB for one. Others can be IO.

    Simon,
    Thankyou for the link.
    It was for commercial and a 5 year fixed period i am interested in.

    How do banks borrow if the commercial property is GST exclusive?. Do they lend the 10 % for a period of time until it is paid back at an interest rate?
    Thanks

    Dom, IMB may lend up to 75%. Its 5 year commercial rate is 8.05%. They have an application fee of 0.50% of the loan amount. You have to pay for valuation and legal fees (which is standard). See http://www.imb.com.au

    Sapphire’s 5 year fixed rate is 7.70% but they only lend up to 65%. See http://www.sapphiremortgageservices.com.au/rates.asp

    With regards to GST – some lenders will provide you with a 3 month overdraft to finance the GST.

    Cheers

    Stu
