In this week’s episode of You Have My Interest, we run through a real-life finance file where we helped a couple, originally from South Africa and now permanent residents in Australia, secure their first home while relocating interstate. With only one applicant’s income able to be used for servicing, since the other applicant’s job couldn’t continue in the new state, we explored how this impacted their borrowing capacity and how we structured their loan. We cover how they built up genuine savings, including using the First Home Super Saver Scheme, why they chose to borrow 93% of the property value while keeping a solid savings buffer, and break down the loan structure and product features they’ve gone with.
First-time buyer, investor or refinancing, we can help you find the ideal amount for your home loan goals and lifestyle. Simply book a free call today.
