Well it's after 5pm and no phone call at all today. Patience wearing very thin ..

Yep it's pretty obvious I've been shunted to back of the que to make way for loans close to settlement. Ah we'll that's the name if the game.

After complaining to my broker he got back to me after speaking to regional manager at Anz. Anz claim they should have a response for me tomorrow. (Thursday) Fingers crossed.

Yeah I don't think so. He's a nice guy but very very slow

I should have known this would happen when he called me to come in a see him for 5 meetings. I've been going through the whole process since July 15. Turtle?

And so I wait.... Thanks for all your feedback guys. Next time around ill be using a broker from this forum for sure. I chose this guy because he is close to where I am stationed at the moment and he seemed quite knowledgeable, however quite slow! Just for future reference is the loan...

Also I'm considering changing from a sole trader to a partnership with my non working wife. If the partnership were to make a profit of say $100,000 and I distribute the earnings 50/50 for tax purposes, when applying for an investment loan in my name only, would the banks look at the income...

Thanks for all the replies. Particularly skaters reply has made me think more about what expenses should be accounted for.

No it's not. Just happens that the 4 tennants are elderly as the area has a lot of retirees and the population only surges during summer holdays

Yes I do have non deductible debt. Good thinking! Also cant get my head around buying a property that although positively geared will most likely take forever to increase in value .
