Property Investment Loans
Whether you’re a first-time investor or a seasoned pro aiming to expand your portfolio, we’re here to guide you through every step of the property investment process.
Investing in property can offer significant financial benefits, including passive income, capital growth, and tax advantages.
We begin by creating a customised Loan Proposal to show you how your investment finance will be set up. It’s important to avoid cross-collateralisation and to choose a lender that offers features you might need in the future as an investor. We also work closely with accountants to make sure your loans are structured correctly for tax purposes.
With your Loan Proposal, you’ll also get a comparison and recommendation of different lenders. We can arrange financing through traditional lenders or alternative options if needed. We’ll guide you through the entire loan process, from application to settlement, and keep in touch with your conveyancer, buyer’s agent, selling agent, and financial planner if you have one. Think of us as the project managers for your investment journey! We’re here when you don’t know where to turn.
Once your investment property loan is settled, our support doesn’t end there. Within 24 hours of settlement, we contact your new lender to ensure:
- The loan is set up correctly and repayments are coming from the right account.
- The amount of the repayment.
- The date the first repayment is due.
We also check that any extra funds are in the correct account and that offsets are linked correctly. We’ll email you this information, and if you need help figuring out what money should go where, we can assist with that too.
We follow up with you 1 month after settlement to make sure everything is running smoothly, and again at 6 months. At the 12-month mark, we’ll do a full loan review and ask your lender for a lower interest rate. If your rate isn’t competitive, we’ll discuss refinancing options with you. We’ll also keep track of any Fixed or Interest Only loans expiring.
Reasons to Invest in Property
- Capital Growth: Real estate typically appreciates over time, providing potential long-term capital gains. By investing in property, you are positioning yourself to benefit from the natural increase in property values, which can significantly boost your net worth over the years.
- Equity Building: As you pay down your mortgage, you build equity in your property. This equity can be leveraged for further investments or to improve your financial standing, contributing to your long-term wealth accumulation.
- Rental Yields: Earning regular rental income can provide a steady cash flow and potentially cover mortgage and property maintenance costs. This income stream can supplement your primary earnings, offering financial stability and the ability to reinvest in additional properties.
- Diversified Income Streams: Investing in multiple properties or different types of real estate can diversify your income sources. This diversification helps reduce risk and ensures a more stable and reliable passive income, even if one property experiences vacancies or other issues.
- Deductions: Investors can often deduct property-related expenses from their income taxes, such as interest on loans, property management fees, and maintenance. These deductions can significantly lower your taxable income, increasing your overall returns from the investment.
- Depreciation: You can also claim depreciation on the property, which is a non-cash deduction that accounts for the wear and tear of the property over time. This can further reduce your taxable income, providing substantial tax savings and enhancing the profitability of your investment.
- Risk Management: Property can be a relatively stable investment, offering diversification away from more volatile markets. By including real estate in your investment portfolio, you can reduce overall risk and enhance the stability of your returns, as property values tend to be less susceptible to short-term market fluctuations compared to stocks or other financial instruments.
- Diversifying your investments across different types of assets, including real estate, helps balance your portfolio. Real estate investments can provide a hedge against inflation and economic downturns, ensuring that your portfolio remains resilient and capable of weathering various market conditions. This strategic allocation can improve the overall performance and security of your investments over time.
