<Description>
Fixed Rate Loan
<p>Fixed rate loans are funds lent over a set term at a set interest rate. This gives the borrower
the certainty of knowing exactly what their monthly repayments will be should their circumstances change.
Some lenders may impose early repayment penalties if you make a lump sum reduction to your loan or you pay
the loan out in full. However, a fixed rate loan is ideal in a rising interest rate market as this guarantees
you of your interest rate and repayments for a set time.</p>

Refinancing
<p>Mortgage refinancing is a process of renegotiating your original mortgage agreement. </p>
<p>With the lending sector constantly changing and lenders constantly enhancing their products to attract new customers, existing customers are left behind, often with products that are no longer as well placed in the market as they once were. It is always important to keep an eye on how your mortgage stacks up against current market leaders and having a mortgage broker can simplify this for you.</p>
<p>While there are inherent costs in altering your existing mortgage you must compare these to the savings made over the entire term of your loan.</p>

<title lang="en">Credit Impaired</title>
<Description>
<p>Low Documentation (or No documentation) loans are designed for the self-employed or small company borrower whose financial statements may not be available for many different reasons (eg Accountant hasn't completed their financials). The borrower must have a sizeable deposit or equity in existing real estate property. Generally, most lenders lend a maximum of 80% of the property value with mortgage insurance applying above 60%.</p>
<p>These loans are usually a variable rate and offer most of the features and benefits attached to the lender's standard variable rate loan product. A Low Document Loan can be just as competitive as a full documentation loan, however they provide less hassle as the borrower doesn't have to provide the lender income documentation.</p>

<Description>
<p>At some point in the past, a borrower may have experienced difficulty in meeting their monthly commitments due to lack of work, suffered unexpected business losses or had a difference of opinion with a former credit provider. Unfortunately, in these cases the former credit provider may have lodged a payment default (or black mark) on their credit report with a credit recording agency. When applying for finance, a default lodged on a credit report may cause some frustration as a lender may not take an understanding view of the borrower’s explanation surrounding the default.</p>

<Description>
<p>Second Mortgages</p>
<p>A second mortgage is an additional loan on a property. Second mortgages usually carry a higher interest charge as the first mortgage carries first priority in the case of default. The second mortgage also carries rights to the property, but these are subordinate to those of the first mortgage. In the case of approving a client for a second mortgage, the lender will calculate the affordability and risk of the first mortgage before calculating whether you would be able to meet any additional repayments.</p>

<Description>
<b>Commercial Mortgages</b>
<p>A commercial mortgage is similar to a regular residential loan except that the loan is applied to a purchase of commercial property. Commercial property generally includes retail shops or offices, warehouses and factory units.</p>
<p>Commercial mortgages are handled the same way as regular residential mortgages in that lenders want to ensure that their money will be making them more money. They will want to certify that the property being targeted is worth their investment and that the borrower’s credentials are trustworthy.</p>
<p>If you are looking to acquire a commercial mortgage the first thing to do is put together a package detailing the potential of the property your want to buy. If possible you should do a little market research that demonstrates the property’s main selling points such as: if it is in a high traffic area, if it is easily accessible, etc… any feature that will make it more attractive in the eyes of a lender, whose main goal is to know that he or she will not lose money on this deal.</p>
<p>Finding the right lender is the next step and that is where we come in. We do more than just find the right lender for their clients; we also offer support, information and advice. Commercial property can be a great investment if well located and properly managed.</p>

<Description>
<b><u>Short Term Business Loans</u></b>
<p>From time to time business or investors find themselves in a situation where they need funds to get them through a short term slump, or to take advantage of a lucrative investment opportunity that presents itself. The business or investor may not be able to access normal loan funds in time to ward off financial difficulties or to take advantage of the opportunity that has presented itself. In both cases short term business loans may be the answer. Short term business loans are for business purposes only and usually the term is measured in months rather than years. The rate is much higher than normal business loans, (3%-10% per month are standard) but are usually easy and quick to obtain. These are pure asset lends with a maximum LVR of 80%. As it is a straight asset lend, credit checks and financials are not usually required.</p>

<b><u>Medium-Long Term Business Loans</u></b>
<p>Many bank lenders charge hefty interest rate penalties for their business purpose loans. A surcharge of 1-2 percent is not uncommon and some overdraft rates are in excess of 12%. Non bank lenders are able to provide business purpose loans at the same rate as owner occupied home loan rates. If you need money for business purposes, why get ripped off by the banks when you can access the equity in your home or investment property at rates well below 7%.</p>

<Description>
<b><u>Why is an Investment Property a Good Strategy ?</u></b>
<p>Most people like property because they can see it, touch it and watch it grow in value over a period of time. If bought in the right area (location), it can offer good returns in capital growth in future years. Also, the depreciation, coupled with rental income, makes this method an easy way to get into property and make it an attractive proposition.</p>
<p>If you already own a property it makes getting into an investment property much easier as you can use the equity in your home as a deposit towards an investment property.</p>

<b><u>Negative Gearing</u></b>
<p>Negative Gearing is the situation when an investment such as property is purchased with the assistance of borrowed funds and where the rental income after the deduction of expenses (such as interest, bank fees, insurance and strata fees) is less than the interest commitment in the course of a financial year.</p>
<p>For tax purposes this negative net income can then be offset against any positive income from other sources. This is a very handy tool in minimizing tax.</p>

<Description>
<b><u>Capital Gains Tax</u></b>
<p>Capital gains are the profits made on selling assets. Your primary place of residence is exempt from any capital gains tax. An investment property sold at a profit will attract a capital gains tax on the profit. The amount will be added to your regular income and taxed at your marginal rate. However, depending on your situation at the time of selling a property, the capital gains tax could be adjusted to be reduced by way of new investments put in place. You should get advice on this matter before selling so that you can structure it correctly.</p>

<title lang="en">Reverse Mortgages</title>
<Description>
<b><u>Reverse Mortgages</u></b>
<p>Unlike conventional mortgage products reverse mortgages (also known as equity release), focus exclusively on a specific segment of the population: retirees. They allow retiring homeowners to access a largely untapped asset to fund a standard of living that for many would otherwise be out of reach.
Reverse mortgages are similar to conventional residential mortgages in that the borrower raises funds against the security of the home. However, reverse mortgages are very different to conventional mortgages when it comes to drawdown, cash flow, and repayments.</p>
<p>In a normal mortgage, the principal amount of the loan is generally advanced as a lump sum to the borrower in order to a purchase a property. The borrower must then make regular principal and interest payments during the term of the loan. If the borrower defaults on the loan, the lender may recover the outstanding balance of the loan (including any unpaid interest) by enforcing its mortgage and selling the mortgaged home.
That is not the case with a reverse mortgage. In addition to having the option of receiving the principal in an upfront lump sum payment, the retiree can also choose to receive the principal in the form of regular part-payments from the lender during the term of the loan.
The retiree is not required to make any repayments (whether of principal or interest) to the lender during the term of the loan, however in some cases may have the option to do so. Instead, the entire loan (including accrued interest) falls due on the death of the retiree, or when the retiree moves out of the mortgaged home permanently, for example into a nursing home or if the property is sold.</p>
<p>The lender then recovers the loan by either having the beneficiaries of the retiree's estate pay the debt, or by enforcing its mortgage and selling the mortgaged home. In most cases, the lender will give the retiree's beneficiaries up to six months to finalise the debt. If the lender sells the property, they will give any funds left over to the estate of the retiree</p>
