Investment Loans โ€” Sydney

Build Wealth
Through Property.

Investment loans require different thinking to owner-occupied loans. The right structure โ€” rate type, P&I vs interest-only, cross-collateralisation, offset โ€” can mean thousands of dollars difference every year.

How we help with investment loans
๐Ÿ’ฐ

Interest-Only Loans

Interest-only repayments maximise cash flow on investment properties. We access lenders with competitive IO rates and understand the policy restrictions that have tightened since APRA reforms.

๐Ÿ—๏ธ

Equity Release

If your owner-occupied home has grown in value, we can structure an equity release to fund your investment deposit โ€” without touching your personal savings.

๐Ÿ“Š

Portfolio Structuring

Cross-collateralising properties can be a trap. We structure investment loans to preserve your future borrowing capacity and keep each property independently financed where possible.

๐Ÿ’ผ

Tax Efficiency

Loan structure affects your tax position. We work alongside your accountant to ensure your loans are set up to maximise deductibility โ€” though we don't provide tax advice directly.

๐Ÿฆ

Specialist Lenders

Some of the best investment loan rates come from second-tier and non-bank lenders not available through branch banking. Our panel includes lenders most investors have never heard of.

๐Ÿ”„

Refinancing Investment Loans

Over time, investment loan rates drift. We conduct annual portfolio reviews to ensure your investment loans remain competitive โ€” and restructure if they don't.

Our process
1

Portfolio Review

We look at your existing properties, equity positions, loan structures, and future goals โ€” not just the next transaction.

2

Structure First

We decide on the right loan structure before touching a rate โ€” P&I vs IO, standalone vs cross-secured, lender allocation.

3

Application

We prepare and lodge the application, manage the lender, and keep you updated through to approval.

4

Ongoing Reviews

We check in annually to review rates, equity positions, and whether restructuring could improve your position.

Questions answered
Should I use a separate lender for my investment loan?
Often yes. Using a different lender for your investment loan from your owner-occupied loan keeps them independent โ€” protecting your owner-occupied property if the investment ever faces issues. It also preserves your borrowing capacity with each lender. We'll recommend the right structure for your situation.
What LVR can I borrow at for an investment property?
Most lenders will lend up to 90% LVR on investment properties (compared to 95% for owner-occupied). Some cap at 80% LVR for investments. With an LMI-eligible profession (doctors, lawyers, etc.) you may access higher LVRs. We'll confirm the maximum LVR for your exact situation.
Is interest-only still available for investors?
Yes, though lending policy has tightened since APRA's 2017 reforms. Most lenders offer interest-only for up to 5 years on investment loans. We know which lenders have the most investor-friendly IO policies and pricing.
Can I use equity in my home to buy an investment property?
Yes. If your home has grown in value since purchase, you may have accessible equity โ€” the difference between 80% of your home's value and your current loan balance. We can structure an equity release as a separate loan split, keeping your investment debt clearly separated from your owner-occupied debt.
How does negative gearing work with my loan structure?
Negative gearing occurs when your investment property expenses (including loan interest) exceed your rental income โ€” creating a tax deduction. Loan structure affects the size of your deduction. We help you understand the interaction but always recommend discussing the full tax picture with your accountant.
