Examples of our recent work
★ Clients sought to borrow the entire purchase price as well as stamp duties and costs to purchase their first investment property. In order to maximise their interest deduction for tax reasons, the equity in their existing owner occupied home was leveraged to enable this client to achieve the outcomes they sought. Advice was obtained from not only from a finance specialist, but financial planner and accountant to ensure forward planning and structure was consistent with their objectives. Finance approval was sought and obtained, and clients have now purchased their investment property, and await settlement.
|
★ Clients sought assistance with their first home purchase finance, and to help them understand their entitlements, options, and to find the right provider at the very best possible rate. Initial dealings with their own bank had not produced the outcome they sought, as this provider did not specialise in catering to the needs of these clients. An understanding of what these clients were looking to achieve now, and in the future was sought, and the provider, structure and rate was customised to be consistent and compatible with their needs. Their home has now settled, they are very happy with their home loan, and are now focused on planning for their wedding.
|
★ Three clients had established a combined self-managed super fund, to enable them to pool resources in order to control how their superannuation was invested, and to invest in property. Finance approval was sought to support a specific value that the clients felt was an appropriate level to purchase at, and subsequently approved. Clients are now proactively seeking a suitable property for their investment needs.
|
★ First Home Buyer sought finance to purchase his first home, being an investment property. He sought direction on how to best structure this loan to maximise tax deductibility while reducing interest, without hindering his future plans to purchase an owner occupied home. He also wanted to ensure he was with the right provider to suit not only his current, but also future needs.
