    Hi,

    I’m looking at purchasing a home for about $120K with a deposit of $30K. I am 55, and only getting a regular income of $500/wk.I’m wondering whether a lender would even consider me for a loan?

    Also on another topic, is there a restriction for brokers to sell loans in another state eg. a NSW broker to sell loans in QLD?

    Thanks for the help in advance.

    Welcome to forum!

    Need to more information to tell you with more confidence. But looking at your situation if you don’t have any other big debt you should not be having any problem getting loan.

    There is no restriction using other state broker. I have clients from every where.

    Hi Mortifs,
    Your best option would be to contact a Mortgage Broker and have him or her crunch the numbers,

    In answer to your other question, Mortgage Brokers are not restricted to writing loans outside of their Home State; I’m based in Victoria and have client’s Australia wide.

    I don’t have any other assets except a car. What other details would you like to know? But based on the info so far it would seem reasonable to apply, or at least inquire?

    Thanks for the advice re: broker and broker restrictions ;)

    Assuming no other debts I cant see that you will have any problems buying an IP for that money. Don’t forget the rent is also added to your income as well.

    As suggested by the others just call a broker.

    Ask family and friends for a referral or choose someone from here that sounds good.

    All the best,

    A good broker like Steve (above) would be able to crunch the numbers for you in a few minutes.

    You certainly look like you would be considered, you have the deposit and the loan is only small.

    Steve’s a good broker, I don’t know him personally but you see his posts around the site he is knowledgeable and trustworth guy giving out lots of advice where needed…
