    Vendor Finance

    Who wraps? Need advisor ASAP

    Hi Kitti All the Instalment Contracts I've seen, have two methods of adjusting the buyer's interest rate: 1. The buyer's interest rate is 'locked' to the underlying loan rate. The underlying loan rate is generally called the Indicator Rate (or Reference Rate). This means the buyer's interest...

    Who wraps? Need advisor ASAP

    Hi Kitti I'll assume by Wrap you mean you'd like to sell with an Instalment Contract (the name of the legal paperwork that makes a Wrap work). I'll also assume the 'couple' you mention would be classified as 'consumers'. An Instalment Contract (IC) is a credit contract and because you are...

    Rick Otton - buy houses no bank loan

    The National Consumer Credit Protection Act 2009 (NCCP) started operation on 1 July 2010. As a result the Vendor Finance industry has changed for the better as licensing is now required for vendor finance transactions that fall under the definition of a Credit Contract (Instalment Contract...

    Hi Glenn Unfortunately I can't answer that question. You'd have to enquire through the relevant insurance companies legal department. We feel it's easier to grab a policy that contains full disclosure regarding the Instalment contract, rather then trying to deal with and change legal...
