  • TheFinanceShop replied to the topic How much can i borrow ? in the forum Finance 9 years, 4 months ago

    1. Sounds like you are cross securitised – fix that up ASAP

    2. Do an upfront valuation and access the equity and try and borrow 105% of the purchase price (or as much as possible) without cross securitising any properties.

    3. Ensure that loans are interest only w/ linked offset. Accumulate all your funds in that offset.

    4. CBA is a very…[Read more]

  • TheFinanceShop replied to the topic Commercial financing for a property development in the forum Value Adding 9 years, 5 months ago

    ANZ is the worst lender for multi unit construction under resi lending. They have a max LVR of 70%.

    If you are talking construction and 4 units on a single title then only Bankwest, RAMS and Heritage will lend to you under resi lending. Max LVR would need to be 80%.

    RAMS would consider 5 under a single title but case by case and it must be a…[Read more]

  • TheFinanceShop replied to the topic Building commercial property more specifically Medical. in the forum Help Needed! 9 years, 5 months ago

    Sounds like you need a turnkey solutions – which is for the person to ascertain the DA and CC and then develop, get the OC and hand you the keys – is that correct?

    If the property is in QLD then its best to contact RPI from this forum – he would be able to put you onto the right people.

  • TheFinanceShop replied to the topic Building commercial property more specifically Medical. in the forum Help Needed! 9 years, 5 months ago

    Is your issue associated with the cost of construction only? Which state or city is this? Do have DA plans or CC plans?

  • TheFinanceShop replied to the topic Finance suggestions in the forum Finance 9 years, 5 months ago

    Ah ha funny story – Adelaide Bank doesn’t like it but Adelaide bank funded mortgage managers can process it fine.

    Why are you going with Adelaide bank though?

  • TheFinanceShop replied to the topic Serviced Apartment in the forum Help Needed! 9 years, 6 months ago

    Its a crap investment for numerous reasons with the main reason being difficulty in financing the property.

    If the serviced apartment is under a lease which this seems to be then only St George, Citibank, La Trobe and Widebay will touch it and St George and Citibank have a policy whereby they will not financed more than 25% of the units in the…[Read more]

    Trusts are ok with must banks. Who is the lender that said no and what type of trust is it? i.e. Family, Unit, Hybrid?

    It sounds like it may be a Hybrid Trust.

  • TheFinanceShop replied to the topic Discretionary Trust vs Hybrid vs SMSF in the forum Legal & Accounting 9 years, 6 months ago

    Only 4 lenders – Suncorp, St George, NAB and CBA will lend to Hybrid Trusts so be wary of this as you are seriously limiting your lender selection.

  • TheFinanceShop replied to the topic Finance for construction of 6 townhouses in the forum Finance 9 years, 6 months ago

    Westpac only goes to a max 65% they can go 70% but its on a case by case basis (meaning that your application would need to be extremely strong). Plus they will want to cross securitise your resi property.

    BoQ also has very conservative servicing so again you need to have strong servicing to go with them.

    I reckon you will find bank west to be…[Read more]

    I have financed a lot of OTP properties in mining towns (particularly Gladstone) and it hurts to see valuations coming back lower that purchase prices even after 4 or 5 years. Also the rentals have dropped unbelievably. Be very careful investing in mining towns.

    RAMS *may* consider it under resi lending but the application would need to be extremely strong and max LVR would be 60%.

    Under commercial lending – Bankwest would do the loan at 70% LVR with no presages provided that you can service the loan without the use of the proposed rental income. Rate should be the least of your concerns but doable at…[Read more]

  • TheFinanceShop replied to the topic Commercial Loan in the forum Commercial Property 9 years, 6 months ago

    1. LVR – big difference as depending on the property type Lender A may lend 50% LVR whereas Lender B will give you 75%.
    2. Features like offset (yes you can get an offset even with a commercial loan)
    3. Fees (this the variation between lenders could vary quite a bit)

    Hi Isabel,

    Try Colin Rice who also posts on this forum – he gets good feedback and his comments display that he has a strong understanding of loan structuring.

  • TheFinanceShop replied to the topic Bank refused my loan application. in the forum Help Needed! 9 years, 7 months ago

    That explains a lot. Different lenders will lend different amounts based on your income and liabilities. ANZ is down there with the links of Bankwest and ING as one of the more conservative lenders. Other lenders like AMP, NAB, Macquarie will certainly lend you more.

    Also why are you doing a LOC and not a term loan. Its cheaper and there is no…[Read more]

  • TheFinanceShop replied to the topic Another business query :( in the forum Help Needed! 9 years, 7 months ago

    What you need is lo doc 80% no LMI – i.e. RAMS.

  • TheFinanceShop replied to the topic Another business query :( in the forum Help Needed! 9 years, 7 months ago

    What is the LVR?

  • TheFinanceShop replied to the topic Good property manager needed in the Parramatta area? in the forum Help Needed! 9 years, 7 months ago

    Not sure if Marilyn is still working at Best Real Estate in Wenty but she was excellent.

  • TheFinanceShop replied to the topic buy licensed rooming house in the forum Help Needed! 9 years, 7 months ago

    Definitely commercial – the contract of sale should have “boarding house” listed on the front page.

    Is there an existing agreement (not expired) in place as this will be quite important.

  • TheFinanceShop replied to the topic Bank refused my loan application. in the forum Help Needed! 9 years, 7 months ago

    1. Don’t cross contaminate the tax deductibility of the loans. Ensure that you set up a separate loan account for the equity release

    2. Single income is not an issue – plenty of applications have single incomes in the family

    Can you please confirm:

    1. Lender
    2. Loan amount and approx value of the property
