How much could you borrow?

Print This Page  


The amount you could borrow will vary according to your specific situation.  It depends on a number of factors including:

  • The amount of rent you expect to receive from the rental property
  • How much deposit or equity you have in an existing property (if any)
  • Your household income
  • Your ability to repay your loan (after accounting for expenses).

You may be able to use up to 75% of your rental income to service your loan; this allows for expenses such as rates, maintenance and vacancies between tenants.

You could also apply for a conditional home loan pre-approval online or contact us and arrange an appointment.
