Buying an investment property
Build your portfolio
Investing in property can be challenging and exciting all at once. But with the right help and information, you'll find yourself on the right track.
Sort out your deposit
The more deposit you have, the better your buying power. Remember that if you need to borrow more than 80% of the amount your property is valued by ANZ, you’ll need to pay Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI)Superscript: 1 to protect us in case you can't repay your loan. So consider saving more for your deposit.

The interest rate for your loan is the rate at the time of drawdown, not the time of application (so it can change). You could apply to lock in a fixed rate (terms and conditions and minimum $750 fee apply).
What is negative gearing?
Negative gearing is when the costs of owning a property (such as interest charges, maintenance and property management costs) exceed the income it produces.
With financial and tax advice, and the right property, negative gearing may be a tax-efficient investment strategy for some investors.disclaimer
Got equity in an existing property?
Equity is the difference between the value of your home and how much you owe on it. For example: if your home is now worth $500,000 and you still owe $300,000, you could have up to $200,000 in equity. You may be able to use some of this equity towards the deposit for your next home.

Buying off the plan
Signing a contract to buy a property before it's completed has some advantages, but it also comes with some potential risks to consider.
Understanding the settlement process
We've found that a lot of property buyers get confused about what happens after their loan's been approved, and what settlement involves. Here's how it works.

The estimated repayment amount does not include any fees or charges.
If a Variable Rate Loan is selected, the interest rate will be subject to change throughout the term of the Loan, which can impact on repayment amounts.
Results are based on approximate amortised scheduled repayments and do not take into account interest rate changes or other events that may change repayment amounts on a loan.
For fixed rate loans, once the fixed rate period expires, the loan reverts to a variable rate loan and repayment amounts will change.
For interest only loans, once the interest only period expires, the loan will revert to the applicable variable rate loan for the remainder of the loan term (unless another interest rate period is taken). At the end of the interest only period, minimum repayment amounts may increase to cover principal and interest. Interest only loans are not for everyone and you should consider if this is the right strategy for you.
