Investors

A history of strong capital gains and a need to ‘touch and feel’ an investment are key factors which drive investors into the relative security of residential property.

Additionally, population growth predictions, lack of available land for development and a subsequent shortage of rental accommodation in most capital cities offers an attractive opportunity for those wishing to start or grow a residential property portfolio.

The cost, conditions, and structure of your investment loan will play a big part in your success. The key is to manage risk versus return and that’s where we can help.

Get the right investment loan structure

Your Green Team finance broker will work closely with you to understand your financial goals, risk tolerance, and investment strategy, ensuring we find the loan package that suits your needs and sets you up for success.

How your investment opportunity is positioned with the bank or lender will go a long way to determining your loan terms and conditions, including your level of discount.

Offering additional security (such as your own home) for the loan can be a way of securing a lower rate loan but it isn’t the only way, nor is it always the better option.

Investment loans can be either as basic as your standard home loan or a little more complex to help with tax minimisation, gearing and repayment management. Loan options include:

  • variable rate loan
  • fixed rate loan
  • combination – variable and fixed rate
  • line-of-credit
  • principal and interest loan
  • interest-only loan

Loan features such as redraw, offset and the ability to make additional repayments are also available.

As with any investment decision we recommend you also talk to your accountant or financial planner for an appropriate analysis of your specific financial position.


A quick guide to investing in property

Before diving into the world of residential property investment, you’ll need to consider the following:

  • Your Investment Strategy: Determine whether your goal is to have positive cash flow (i.e. rental income covers mortgage repayments), or negative cash flow, also referred to as negative gearing (i.e. you are primarily seeking tax benefits).
  • Your Borrowing Capacity: Based on your investment strategy we’ll provide you with an overview of how much you can borrow from a selection of lenders and the associated loan costs. It may surprise you to know it will vary from lender to lender.
  • Choosing the right Investment Loan: From here we’ll provide you with a range of loan options that align with your cash flow and capital growth goals. You can compare your options and decide on your preferred loan and lender.
  • Obtaining Loan Pre-Approval: Securing a formal pre-approval for your investment loan is a crucial step in the purchasing process. It puts you in prime position to sign a contract or bid with confidence when you find the right property.
  • Selecting the right Suburb and Property Type: When comparing investment properties, prioritise the tenant appeal of each property. Ask yourself if the property can attract good, long-term tenants, as this greatly impacts the property’s profitability.
