Is the agent more likely to pressure their vendor to accept a lower offer, in the hope that they will get a commission, and that the seller will get a sale?
Am I right in assuming that this works in our favour?
Hi Roberto
It might – but it's all speculation.
Is 90 days normal in this part of the world? If not, have a chat with the agent and ask about why it hasn't been snapped up and what feedback is he/she getting. Has their been any interest? Why are they selling – what's motivating them?

adam.p wrote:Thanks Jamie. That's what I had in mind.I just wanted to know if this is ANZ thing, not the same for all lenders.
Some lenders will say that they won't extend an IO term past a certain number of years – but in reality, it's something that can be worked around.
ANZ are a bit funny – they see changes such as reverting from P&I to IO as "credit critical" so ask for a new application to be submitted. There's been moves to change this – and I've been told that these sort of adjustments can be made in branch now, but I'm still reluctant to send my clients direct to a branch to have them fiddle with their loan accounts.

Hi Adam
I wouldn't pay too much attention to it – in 10 years time, you should be able to set up another interest only period. If not with ANZ, then with another lender.

Hi Togaf
I've used this website to receive quotes from different trades – http://www.homeimprovementpages.com.au/home/index1
It's quite handy – you provide a description of the job and the replies usually come back quite quickly.

I'm with you – kitchen and bathrooms are a couple of big ticket items when it comes to value add. I'm not sure I'd be willing to spend too many dollars on external concreting.

Agree with Terry – if this is going to become an IP in the future, then take out a larger loan and drop your remaining funds into the offset.
When it becomes an IP, you move those funds out of the offset onto your next PPOR. Here's an article I wrote for API magazine that explains the concept.

Hi Chetnik
I don't know of any.
What's the main goal with this loan?
Do you want to simply pay it off as quickly as possible? If so, set it up as P&I and pay as much as possible into the loan. Also set up an offset against the loan and have your income(s) paid into the account.
If there's another goal – like turning it into an IP at some point, then repaying on a P&I basis will be detrimental – as will using such a massive deposit.
Cheers

Hi and welcome aboard.
The state the property is in will determine whether duty will be triggered again.
In any case, this is a scenario that you'd want to discuss with your accountant – let them know of your intention to sell the property within the next few years as well.

OK – definitely need to have your accountant crunch the numbers for you to work out your best option.
Where are you located? If you don't already have a good accountant, you might find some useful recommendations here.

Hiya
Is it a principle place of residence or an investment property?
If the latter – there may be CGT payable on the sale so you'll need to work out how that would effect you if sold this FY or the next. Best to sit down with your accountant to crunch the numbers.

LVR, serviceability, employment history, amount of debt, security type and credit file are all big ones.
