    For an Aussie investing in NZ (residential), what sort of LVR can one expect? Say from main bank type lenders?

    Thanks,
    MarkyMark

    80% LVR is standard with the majority of lenders, 90% LVR in some cases,

    Hi steve

    i am yet to see a bank give 90%, to australian investors, i’ve heard some give promises but fail to deliver. What have you seen ?
    While i’ve got you can i ask are you able to assist with the major Banks for finance ?

    Yep,

    Seems to be 80% or lower (depending on the area) from what I’ve seen.

    regards,

    Rod.

    Hi Westan,
    One of my lenders will do a 90% LVR lend with LMI subject to location (Invercargil is ok)[biggrin]
    Low Doc finance is also available,
    There are Four lenders that I use for non NZ resident lending, ANZ in NZ being one of them,

    Hi,

    There are some areas that “most” banks will only lend a maximum of 70% LVR.

    Some of the main ones off the top of my head are:

    Tokoroa,
    Taurmanaui
    Castlecliff
    Gonville

    Um, my mind has gone blank, sorry…
    I’m sure others can add to the list if you require it.

    Regards,

    Del

    Hi all

    yes del

    in addition to your list I know ANZ here says 70% to
    Ngaruawahia
    Waihi
    Putaruru
    Flaxmere (a suburb of Hastings)
    Highbury (suburb of Palmerston North
    Castlecliff, Gonville, Aramoho and Wanganui East (suburbs of Wanganui) and
    any ex-housing corp securities in Wanganui

    these are in the North island
    the only ones in the south island are some tiny little towns on the remote West coast (Towns like Greymouth, Hokitika and Westport are OK).

    Hi all,

    I recently bought a duplex in Hawera and ANZ offered me 90% on it… I declined the offer as I didn’t want to get into mortgage insurance.

    Yes, I’m an another Aussie investing in NZ. [baaa]

    Cheers, Barry

    Hi barry

    just for the record what bank were you dealing with. i know someone else who was offered 90% but when it came to the crunch they only got 80%.
