Expert review

LVRs at or below 80% are eligible for the lowest interest rate. The interest rate will then increase as the LVR increases. You will also be charged Lender’s Mortgage Insurance for borrowing above 80% LVR. You can draw from this loan as much as you would like up to your credit limit, however you must draw a minimum of $100.

You can deposit your salary into the line of credit to reduce any interest you pay and you can operate this as a full transaction account. If after 5 years you are still using your line of credit, it will revert back to a standard principal and interest home loan.

    hi – I have a home that I wish to use to buy another property. I need, i think, a bridging loan or line of credit.
    The property I wish to buy goes to auction February and then I wish to sell my current home in April.

    New property approx. 2.5 M (loan amt until owned prop sold)
    thanks
