Re: Should I get a basic home loan?

Hi everyone,

I am also unsure about which home loan is suitable for me, and I learned a lot from this thread. Could someone tell me what an offset account is?

Hey,

I’m planning to get a professional package home loan and was going through this thread for some information. You mentioned that it may be possible to get a free offset account with a professional package. Can you please explain how such an account works?

Hi Otto, thank you for the information. Can I get an idea on the margin that the banks will add to the bank bill swap bid rate?

Is a bank bill loan the right option for me?

Hello there!

I have been planning on investing in a commercial property worth $4 million. When I approached my bank with the proposition, they said that I would need to get a business loan. But this kind of loan apparently has a much higher interest rate than standard home loans.

One of my friend was saying that I may pay much less in interest if I am able to get a bank bill loan. I do not know about this kind of loan. Could someone give me more information on this kind of loan? How does it all work?

Re: How much can a Japanese borrow for a house in Australia?

Thank you for the information, Otto. I know about the various features of mortgage in my country, but I am not sure if the mortgage providers in Australia provide the same features on a loan. Could you tell me more about that too?

Hi home loan experts!

I am a Japanese and I want to buy a property in Australia. However, I do not know of any regulations and policies that applies to us, or even if foreigners are allowed to buy a property in Australia. One of my friends suggested me to post my query on this forum, and here I am.

So, could anyone tell me more on the topic? How much may I be able to borrow for buying a house in Australia?

I got bad credit. Can I get a loan?

Hi there,

I want to get a home loan. I am an IT consultant, and I have a decent income. But last year, I missed a couple of my credit card repayments as I was out of the country. The missed payments were less than $500, but I heard that it can still damage my credit. I have already cleared the dues as of now, but I was wondering if that would have an impact on my new loan application.

If I apply for a new loan now, what would the banks think? Does it matter to other banks if I had applied for a loan before? By the way, I run my own business now and contract to other firms. But I had applied for a line of credit, and I heard that it is all recorded. Any suggestions?

Re: Can I include rental income when applying for a home loa

I didn’t know lenders had such kind of policy on rental income. I want to see if it is possible to find a lender who will be ready to accept my loan application. Let me give you a ring in a couple of days so that we can talk about this.
