      I enquire about a 25 year loan, based on advertised 3.64.

      I wish to confirm that this variable rate is based on the term of the loan, pending any governmental financial changes that may occur and will not change shortly after taking the loan.
      What are the total real fees inclusive of any stamp, registration, legal fees etc….?
      Additionally do I read the terms correctly that there is no termination of loan fee incurred, just a titles handover and nothing else

        Hi Scott,

        Thanks for your question.

        Please note that the Breath Easy Offset does not have a construction option.

        State Custodians does offer a separate construction loan and you can choose for it to revert to a permanent residential loan.

        If you click on ‘Go to Site’, you’ll be taken to the official State Custodian’s website where you browse through your options.

        Cheers,

      What interest rate are you offering for a 3 to 5 year fixed rate, interest only on $ 730 000 with the property being valued at $ 1000000, and how quick does the process take

        Hi Troy,

        Thanks for your comment.

        From the figures that you’ve given, your LVR is less than 80%. Please refer to the row that states ‘<80%' for your interest rate.

        Approval can take up to a one week but this will depend on how fast you can get in all the required documentation and how soon a valuer can access the property.

        Hope this helps,
        Shirley
