    Hi All,

    As I have never unlocked equity before from a residential property, I need the following questions answered about what do:

    1) Do I phone my loan financier first or should I arrange a valuer to value the property and then see my financier (I hear the financier wont look at the property as its under 12 months since I first purchased)

    2) Will the financier value it themselves?

    3) How should I set up the equity. 95% of the equity will be used for a new web/internet business

    Thanks in advance for your help!
    Cheers Mat

    Hi KA010

    Wow before you rush in and talk to your lender i think you should consult your mortgage broker as you are right most lenders will not:

    1) Allow the property to be revalued within a 12 month period.

    2) Dependant on who the lender is will require you to cover the valuation cost.

    3) May not lend for business venture purposes.

    Your MB will be able to look at the various options available to you and assist you in lodging the application to your benefit.

    Thanks for that response.

    But if I dont have a mortgage broker, what next? I have a loan a through Myrate.com and I understand I will have to pay for the valuation, do I do this valuation before phoning myrate or should I contact them first?

    Cheers Mat

    Hi Mat

    Ok You will need to ring My rate and advise them that you wish to raise funds for business purposes. 
    See what they say first and then obtain a pre-approval subject to them spending your valuation fee.

    Might save you a few dollars in costs doing it that way.
