After a number of enquiries regarding mortgage insurance I have formed =the view that the 'true power' resides with them.
Last week my brother was reduced to applying for max LVR 80% (not =90-95%) as the mortgage insurers (Gemico) thought that the security, =house in Dubbo and a unit in Cooparoo in Brisbane were poor markets =where the likelihood of appreciation was slight, and the likelihood of =going backwards was on the cards. Unbelievable. Or do they know =something that we/I don't about Brisbane property markets? I have been a =supporter of Brisbane property over the last 5 lean years (compared to =Sydney) but I am slowly starting to feel that it is a basket case. In =addition the valuers are even saying Brisbane is not going anywhere. =This reflected in a few valuations we had which showed that the =properties had appreciated less than 2% p.a in last 5 years. (Two tiered =marketing did not play a role here as the original valuations were =independent and reasonably close to sale price.)
Do we sell the Brisbane investments, they don't seem to be going =anywhere and having them hurts our chances with mortgage insurers =(apparently).
Any thoughts on mortgage insurers and Brisbane property ?
