Current scenario is 3 IP’s, each IP has their own loan and small LOC buffer account where the rents are deposited into and the loan repayments come out of. The LOC balance for each is used for other expenses that the rent may not cover (AC issues/plumbing repairs etc). I have operated this way for many years but am looking at a way to…[Read more]

Some friends and I are looking to buy a property together (long term hold) with a reno to rent strategy. I’d love to know what your thoughts are on the structure/entity we should consider purchasing it in? Is there anyone out there that lives and breaths this stuff and is happy to share?
Thanks 😊

We currently have a 3 year fixed loan with St George and have been paying IIA for the past 2 years.

St George can offer 4.49% fixed for 5 years….and if IIA is paid, there is an additional .2% discount bringing it to 4.29%. Anyone you know doing better than this on IIA? Is there something else the lenders call IIA? I find it very difficult to find the product….Obviously not looking in the right spot….or using the…[Read more]

Also, an SMSF receives another land tax threshold….and if you were to start up subsequent SMSF’s, you receive…[Read more]

We received the invoice today and came in at $440, so $400ish must be the going rate.

We currently have a loan with St. George and pay 12 months interest in advance in June. Tax returns are done promptly and we receive a good return soon after. Love St Georges product but wondering who else offers interest in advance as we are considering a refinance (for another property)?

Thanks ‘in advance’. :-)

We recently had a solicitor go over some mortgage documents with us and also witness the documents. We were there about an hour and fifteen minutes and am wondering (before we receive the invoice) what would be a likely price to pay for such a service? I know, something I should have asked first.

We are in the market for a solicitor on…[Read more]

Much appreciated. As it’s a LOC, legally he would be allowed to on-lend it, wouldn’t he? Don’t want to break any rules. :-) My understanding is that he can do what he likes with it. The only risk is if the bank called in the loan (LOC in this instance), but I imagine this would be an unlikely event. And yes, the purpose…[Read more]

I am assuming that he would have to declare any interest payments as income but then can he claim the interest too? The loan would be paid back at his current…[Read more]
