Hi Bala
No they don’t offer 100% loans for investment.
We certainly don’t offer 30 Year loans but i can’t comment about others. Have to say I doubt it.

Hi Huilo
No not necessarily many Lease doc type products are charged at standard Commercial Rates (albeit in the main these are higher than your standard resi home loan rates).

Hi Monique
As a Buyers Agent we buy a lot of properties in that SW pocket for forum members but must admit i am not sure i would be buying in the suburbs your current BA has listed for a number of reasons.
Certainly the enclave is a popular area for SMSF purchases but i think you can do better than the suburbs outlined.

Hi Mark
Firstly welcome to the forum and I hope you enjoy your time with us.
Whilst a good property Accountant is important and I can certainly recommend someone to you setting up multiple Trusts certainly won’t help you increase your borrowing capacity.

Hi Tam
Firstly welcome to the forum and I hope you enjoy your time with us.
Certainly shouldn’t be too difficult to find a positively geared Commercial property as you limited to circa 60-70% lvr so means you are putting in a fair amount of deposit.
Whilst the odd lender might go to 75% if it is a P & I loan the higher yielding properties are…[Read more]

Richard Taylor replied to the topic Anyone heard for this bank – Firstmac? in the forum Legal & Accounting 9 years, 5 months ago
I used them first in 1994 when Kim Cannon set up Nationale.
Couple of name changes later and Firstmac have just recently issued a 500M RMBS.
We haven’t used them for a few years since they changed their servicing model.
Can’t think of any real niche’s they have to offer.

Hi IC
Ok an Essex boy. I am from further south in Bournemouth.
Yes set up sounds ok but wouldn’t pay a premium for separate offset accounts as just having the 1 is enough.
First loan might have an offset attached and then a basic loan with no frills.

Hi Khiem
We cover the 3 areas you are referring to.
Certainly a lot of demand for these suburbs given the slightly higher yields and lower entry price.
Happy to email you some details if you want.

Hi Tjay
Yes must admit the new Qld Boost has created a lot of new interest.
Certainly from a income point of view i don’t see an issue in showing you can service the total loan but unless you have been renting thru a real estate agent for the last 12 months you are going to need a little more in savings.
5% on a total price of $500K would be…[Read more]

Yes totally agree there are good and bad of both.
Not sure which lenders pay a higher commission because through the larger aggregators commission rates are almost identical.
Guess you could also say there has been many a Banker falsify client details on an application to get a deal over the line to aid his / her own sales targets.
