    I have a block of units in Mt Isa bought 16 months ago financed through a Fixed IO loan ($54K) and LOC ($78K) through Colonial.

    In October 04 i went from an employee to starting on a contract where the company i was working for started to pay me like a contractor – so essentially self employed – same job, same office just different pay arrangements.

    If i attempt to refinance my LOC on the units to draw down equity, will i run into trouble with Colonial because i am now self employed and have an application declined?

    Hope you can help

    Hi Old School,

    It shouldn’t be a problem as long as you can provide details of the new contract and verification from the employer that you are essentially performing the same role but with different pay arrangements.

    Cheers,

    Mortgageman

    I think you shouldn’t have too much trouble, same employer etc.

    I’ve put someone through ANZ like this and was OK.
