    Repayments

    Though we do recommend that you make principal and interest repayments to reduce your loan balance, we do not demand repayments. However, if at any time the unpaid balance of the account exceeds the credit limit, you will need to immediately repay the necessary amount to reduce the unpaid balance to your credit limit.

    Loan to Value Ratio (LVR)

    We offer a maximum 90% of the value of the property (Lenders Mortgage Insurance is required for loans of more than 80% of the value of the property).

    Security

    First mortgage over owner-occupied or investment property.
