    I am in a nasty situation. I am divorcing and we are at the Property Settlement stage. I will retain the house, my problem being, I am on Workcover after a serious car accident and its long term…….will any bank even look at lending to me on this basis, even though the money I receive is adeqaute to service a loan…I’me doing it now, or will I justbe written off. The other thing I’me wondering is would my present Lender just accept the transfer off deed and a reduction in the [cigar][cigar]mortgage and still retain me as a customer?[cigar]

    Hi Ms Holman

    I am not sure about this. It will probably be difficult as the work cover will stop at some time. Are you going back to the same job when better?

    There may be other options such as an asset lend or a No Doc loan. What sort of LVR would you need?

    This can be a tricky one but is relatively straight forward when viewed with the right approach. If you wish to discuss this off forum I’d be more than happy to help.

    it would be worth investigating low doc home loans that require less formalities for a home loan.

    Hi Blueeyes

    I very much doubt your existing lender will want to retain the loan if according to their servcing criteria you are unable to demonstrate satisfactory income proof.

    As Terry suggested a NODOC loan maybe the way to go as it sounds like you will have ample equity in the property.

    Never give up where there is a will there is a way.

    The simplest solution would be to check with your current lender.. Anonymously of course,
    Ring them up and explain that you are on work cover and you want to know if you would qualify for a loan for x amount while receiving work cover income of x amount.

    if by chance you don’t qualify then contact a mortgage broker(There’s plenty around at the moment) to find out what other lenders & options are available to you.

    Sounds like you have had a bit of rough time.. I wish you well & good luck, cheers.

    I beleive that Liberty financial would do it on work cover income (as long as the income and LVRs etc stacked up). 6.94%
