I will talk to my mortgage broker about whether my name will be on the loan or not. I just presumed it was as we will be getting the deposit drawn down from our existing PPOR loan which has both names on the title. Will also seek legal advice with the lawyer who will do the conveyancing for us. Thank you very much

Yes Terry my question is aimed at the family law situation. I wanted to protect myself If something (God willing it doesn’t) happened to our marriage down the tract. I thought the 50/50 split on this IP would be hard to do if it’s just in his name so was wondering if there is a form I could apply for that would prove I am…[Read more]

Back from my NZ trip and here to tell you the outcome of my little dilemma I had. The tenant that wouldn’t move out – well I got my father-inlaw to go around and bluff them.

I’ll let u know how everything goes. I have no Tenancy Agreement with them and as far as I’m concerned, they are squatters and are trespassing. Since the law is usually on their side, I have to be careful how i handle things.

I’ve just read: The property is sold subject to existing tenancies or occupations (if any) including holding over by the Mortgagor.
I missed that and so did my solicitor. Never mind I’ll have to work something out now that the ball is in my court. Thanks for your help. Another lesson learned.

I purchased this house in Kaitaia. Top of the North Island. The previous owners who forfeited the bank are the ones still in the house.

I am insured with Tower. They have insured me for home and contents. This cover is full replacement value which was a condition the bank needed for me to get the loan. They were a bit cheaper than rentsure but they dont cover you for unpaid rent. I only know of rentsure and I think NZI that have rent cover.
