Evening All'
I replied to another thread on the forum "Tapping Equity" but decided to repost here (see below) in the hope of gaining an alternative view from someone who may have had recent experience with this type of thing.
My broker feels we may be up against the wall when it comes to approaching Westpac, particularly trying to explain why I want the funds.
Any feedback appreciated.
Cheers Ian.
G'day All,
W2BW......do you mind if I ask which lender you you actioned this with please? It seems way too easy in current fianancial climate.
I am in discussion with my broker now with a view to trying to rearrange 3 x loans with Westpac to set up an interest capitalisation regime and she is saying that it could be very difficult to get things over the line (especially if we tell them the truth!!). Her view is that by me wanting to revalue 2 x IPs and dump excess funds in LOCs and set about paying down our PPOR with normal PAYG & rental income funds, Westpac will just say no! Yet if we come up with some **** & bull story we might just get the approval we need.
I'd rather tell them straight up what I want to do (unless anyone else has an approach which might be a bit "rubbery" but may be more palatable to Westpac).
What ever happened to easy money?
Ian.
