Hi all readers



I am a 35 year old builder with a young family I own my own property complete with unfinished house its worth at least $600,000.00 as is, we have got an investment farm worth $100,000.00 which we owe $40,000.00. My problem is as a self employed builder my bank only wants to lend money which reflects my end of year income which my accountant always seems to get to about $30,000.00. How do I get around this problem and looking at my equity what should I be looking to borrow.

thanks
Michael

Clever how your accountant can always get you into that lower tax rate
;)

There are a couple of ideas. The first is always to talk to a mortgage
broker.

The second is to get your accountant to whip up a letter showing your
banker how your taxable income is after taking into account all the
non-self employed deductions (cars, home office etc). If necessary get
your accountant to talk to your banker.

Or talk to Uncle Steve Navra about his cashbonds - GREAT for turning equity into income to support your DSR in the bank's eyes.

Another solution is the myiriad of No docs loans some of which are now effecctively only marginally more expensive than a standard loan.

Two typical examples - 6.3 % variable from day one.

or

6.95 for the first 2 years, make your payments on time for 2 years and the lender will reduce the rate to 5.94 %.

Some promoters are marketing these products as "hassle" free loans because the borrower signs a declaration of what they can repay the loan so no mucking around with tax returns.

Hi Michael

Like Rolf said go speak to a broker and go for a low doc loan ( no proof =of income).
If the valuations come to what you say $700k less $40k loan
= $ 660k in equity then you should be able to get (75%LVR low doc loan =)
which is about $ 495,000 loan. The only diffrence will be the interest =rate which
will be high 6% to low 7% .
This is a lot of money to play with. Lots of deposits for IP's.

No docs loans are the way to go.

There are some "resident" mortgage experts in this forum that I am sure can help you.

We have a lot of clients that require these loans so you are not "aloan"

good luck
