    Hi Giulio

    Why dont you post a litle more information and we can give more of a accurate assessment.

    There is always a way it is just a matter of going through the numbers.

    Hi Giulio

    I just ran your numbers through a serviceability calculator and you should be able to pass serviceablity – unless you have large credit card limits, personal loans, car leases etc.

    Just try another bank.

    Therein lies the problem – don't walk into a bank, see a broker. They have access to a range of products and lending institutions and should be able to help. Banks are limited by their products brokers are not.

    I am with Terry you have bucket loads of serviceability and some good equity on your PPOR.

    Borrowing should not be an issue structured correctly.

    Will a LOC on the existing property an option ?
    not sure if it matters but the loan is for a subdivision/construct on the existing property.

    Also thinking about the tax side of things too, will it have any effect, seeing as though the existing will turn into a rental and the LOC loan will be for the PPOR.

    How will i distinguish what part of the loan i can get tax relief from ?
