I am a soon-to-be first home buyer. My situation is like this:
Combined income, Net after tax : $6,850 per month
Have been in our job for one year.
Deposit available : $80,000 (2/3 is genuine saving)Looking for a property worth: $500,000
Purpose: Owner-Occupied
LVR : 15% and I am looking for a loan that waive LMI (I heard there are three lenders can do that)
Credit Card Limit: $31,000 , balance: $9,000. Will close some credit cards to make the limit become $10,000
No bad credit history.Can I get a loan with a good rate ?
Regards,
Ferdinand
Hi Ferdinand
On the information to hand and on the basis that you CC limit is only $10K Yes you would appear to qualify merely from a serviceability point of view.

Hi Richard, what do you think about the fact that we have only been in the current job for 1 year ?
Do you also know anything about lenders waiving LMI on 15% deposit ?
Ferdinand- i did quick calculation – yup your fine with serviceability** at 10k CC – Lowering your cc limit is a good thing in general but also may not the the best thing if your JUST abt to apply for a loan- The lender will ask for 3 month CC statements…and if they see different limits JUST before you apply for a loan it may not be to your advantage so carefully planning is required and applying to the right lender is a must.
No LMI with 15% genuine saving and 1 year with current employer is fine ( 85% LVR)

Hi Ferdinand
Agree with Michael based on the relevant assumption serviceability appears fine.
1 Year employment with current lender is not a problem.Yes there are a couple of lenders that will waive LMI at 85% and others that dont charge LMI but a small fee instead and then self insure.

Would you mind to tell me what is the lending criteria for no LMI with LVR 85% ?
85% no mi with ing not possible unless main income earner is 2 years in job I think from memory. Westpac fine. Citibank should also be fine as long as property in good location ie Sydney metro.

I would like to ask, with 85% LVR no LMI, what interest actually they offer (Westpac and Citi) ? Is it standard variable rate or + some percentage, because of no LMI payable ?
Richard or Michael if you can help me to answer this question as well, much appreciated. I am just wondering is that privilege comes at no cost.
Standard rate but your Broker will need to get the LMI Waiver for you as it is not automatic.

By saying that, does that mean that if I apply by myself, I wouldn’t be able to get LMI waiver ?
As far i am aware no it is not available thru the direct channel.

Sorry havn’t been on for a while- So busy!!! rates are so competitive and it;s always on the news….
Ferdinand – Did the Cal- yes you will be fine with serviceability for the amount your after.
In regards to LMI–
–ING—
NO LMI at 85% — Must be in job for 2 years MIN! ( so that’s a no for you)
Reduce LMI up to 95% — Same as above—Westpac—
NO LMI 85% – “Vanilla ” Loan applicants only9 ( Perfect Credit File, No inner city apartments, >50squ, Stadard properties, Genuine savings, stable employment) -From what i can see You be fine….your consider a Vanilla loan – unless you have a default on your CR?—NAB **—-
Up to 90% NO LMI – for selective clients only – Normally $600,000+ loan , Vanilla loan + “pro” pack professional or medico OR Staff of NAB
–Suncorp—
Reduce LMI up to 95% ( effective from April 4th)- new product! – Standard guild-lines…—Citibank—-
NO LMI 85%- Vanilla loan only + Non-genuine savings up to 85% ok.-nationwidelending—
85% NO LMI – havnt done a loan thru these ppl for over 6 month…so not 100% sure.There are a few more smaller lenders, who uses similar product/lenders—-
Either way some of these deals are not available to the general public via the broker and intro market only.

I believe you should qualify by going direct to the bank
Guys,
I would like to have someone to be able to clarify few things. I plan to buy the property in mid August (start looking early August).
1. When I should start to get a loan approval either through the bank directly or mortgage broker ? if through a mortgage broker, then when I should start to meet in person ?2. As I told in my original post, I plan to buy with 15% deposit no LMI. Yet, the properties that I am interested in, the price tags are around $520K to $540K. That means I would be liable for reduced stamp duty (NSW). Can I capitalise that ?
3. Richard or Michael who can tell me, with the calculation previously, am I really maxed out already ? Can I borrow $450K ?
4. When I go to a mortgage broker or a bank or a pre approval in June or July, my money will not be 15% yet, but somewhere around 13%, but it will be 15% in August. Does it matter ?
5. I will get a payrise (90% probability) in June around $2,500 to $3,000 annually. so my annual salary will be 57,500 gross plus super. Will it help me if I go for a pre-approval only few weeks after that payrise ? Will bank calculate my salary based on my increased salary ?
Thank you, any help will be greatly appreciated.
