Frequently Asked Questions

Applying for a loan for an investment property is technically similar to applying for a normal home loan. The main difference is that as a property investor, you wouldn’t just go and get a mortgage. Indeed you need to find an investment property. You would normally consider the types of properties that you should go for: cash flow properties or capital growth properties.

You also need to consider your future financing capacity if you have the capacity and desire to purchase more investment properties. You don’t have to know all the technical details but you should inform your finance adviser about your plan. This is because by selecting only one lender they can greatly affect your borrowing capacity.

A property investor will also need to have their tax structure and asset protection considered prior to purchase. This because they need to purchase the investment property in the correct structure. Advanced Mortgage Solution’s mortgage strategists are fully aware of the importance of these issues and will refer you to the professionals that can help you.

After you have decided to apply for a loan, Advanced Mortgage Solutions will fill in the loan application. This is based on the information you provide to us. You don’t have to do any paper work. However you need you to supply minimum documentation for the approval process, and of course sign the appropriate consent forms.

Depending on the lenders that you chose to use, some lenders accept electronic application lodgement, which means faster approvals and turnaround time, while others accept only paper applications, which take longer to be processed.

We will lodge your loan application upon receiving your signature on relevant documents. The loan process will start after that.
