Hi All,
Firstly i'm trying to help out a work colleague who has 3 young children and a wife who works also.
Work colleague used aussie home loans and purchased a ppor a year ago.Loan was through BOM.
He put down 20% deposit,cashed in shares for the deposit and is paying P&I with no offset or at the very least a redraw.
I presume he would have a break fee through aussie home loans if he was to break,i presume the break fee wouldn't be that much?
Anyhow in the interim i have suggested to him to attach an offset account or at the very least a redraw until mileage is up with aussie home loans.
Get a credit card and pay out all outgoings via cc and keep in goings in offset.
His finances seem to be all over the place,with disused bank accounts and very little in savings.I've mentioned to him to keep it simple and get rid of disused accounts.I've suggested he talk to a broker to better his situation.
He has made improvements to his ppor and also has a granny flat attached to which his father or father in-law resides.He has no plans to invest but to pay off his ppor.
So i'm trying to help him out by making life easier with his financial situation.
Would it be better to break from aussie home loans and set up his loan in a better way?
I was thinking he'd be better off with an interest only loan with offset attached and a credit card for all outgoings.
Would it be worth tapping into any equity he has?
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Cheers Spades.
