Strong Lower North Shore suburb with high lender appetite. Select lenders approve 95% LVR.

Lender postcode LVR policies are not publicly published and change regularly. What one bank restricts to 80% LVR, a non-bank lender on our panel may approve at 90% or 95% LVR for the identical property. Discovering this restriction after exchanging contracts is one of the most costly mistakes a prestige property buyer can make.

John Pierre Saliba's process: Before you make any offer or bid at auction in Cremorne, we confirm which lenders on our 50+ panel will approve your LVR at what rate โ€” so you never discover a postcode restriction after you're committed to a property.
