Low Doc Home Loans Oakliegh

You may have heard of low doc and alt doc home loans if you're self-employed or own a small business and don't have the required documents for a standard home loan application.

LET'S SET SOME GOALS TOGETHER?

What is a Low Doc home loan?

What is a low doc home loan? Low doc loans are a way for small business owners, freelancers and other ABN holders to meet the requirements of a loan application. They are designed for customers who otherwise wouldn’t be able to get a home loan due to their inability to validate their earnings using traditional methods. These types of loans rely on self-verification of income, which may require a supporting letter from an accountant and your recent bank statements.

What is an Alt Doc Home Loan?

Alt Doc home loans still require supporting documents and go through our full credit assessment criteria. However, the documents we ask for are more flexible and meet the lending standards of today. Alt Doc loans are a way for Australia's many self-employed people to get loans even if they don't meet the usual requirements or don't have the long ABN history and paperwork that some mainstream lenders want.

What does Equity Release Mean?

Now that you've calculated the equity, the question is how you'll get your hands on it. The equity is 'released' through a top-up with your present lender or a remortgage to a different lender if they can provide a better offer for your circumstances. Both allow you to borrow against the value of your home.

The top-up option allows you to borrow more cash on top of your current mortgage, which may be completed fast. Because it is a fresh application, a remortgage to release equity (refinance) will take longer.

What can I do with an Equity Release?

Once you've collected equity, it's a good idea to know what you might be able to do with it. Equity release loans are permitted by lenders for specific purposes. Acceptable purposes include

  • Releasing equity to purchase another property
  • Releasing equity to do non-structural renovations to your home.
  • As a deposit for your next home or investment property
  • To invest in shares
  • Purchasing or investing in your business
  • To purchase a new car or a holiday
  • Debt consolidation (credit cards, personal loans)

You must clarify with the lender that the objective of your equity release is acceptable. We have a good relationship with our lenders at Mint Financial Solutions, and we can work with you to ascertain this.

Using Equity in Your Home

If you own a property, whether it's your own home or an investment property, you probably have some equity. Now, you can use this equity to help you buy an investment property, make repairs, or do other things.

From the moment I reached out to Kim Smart from Mint Financial, I was impressed by her professionalism and willingness to assist me without any expectations. Kim's commitment to my financial well-being was evident throughout our interactions.One of the most commendable aspects of Kim's services was her ability to offer me tailored advice that was based on my individual financial goals and circumstances. Kim took the time to understand my specific situation and provided recommendations that were both insightful and practical. I highly recommend making the time to meet with Kim Smart to discuss your financial goals.

We have been clients of Mint Financial Solutions for the last twelve months; The team is very professional and friendly in their approach to us the customer, with lots of knowledge and experience. They helped us make an informed decision with our investment. At that time, we were not sure what we were going to do with our money.The plan laid out by Hishan and his team clearly set goals and rewards. These have been proven and very beneficial over the last twelve months. The growth was even more than what was predicted.We are especially happy with Hishan, Marlon and the rest of the Mint Financial Solutions team and very grateful for their help. More people should be made aware of the expertise and assistance they could provide.

I have been using the services of Mint Financial Solutions since its inception, and I am truly grateful and appreciative of the professionalism and care they take when recommending services to me, only providing what is reasonable and relevant to my situation and circumstances. A key stand out on the team is Crystal Nguyen who has been helping me over the last few years in order to get approved for a refinance application. Her patience, dedication and level of professionalism is beyond remarkable, I am extremely appreciative of the hard work she has put in for my case, despite many setbacks we finally got there in the end. Thank you very much Crystal.

I started a conversation with Marlon at Mint Financial services over 8 years back and since then he had assisted me in many insurance related and investment related transitions. The advice and the systems put in place by Marlon and the team came in handy when about two years back I had a health and financial issue in the family. Am I glad that he prepared me and gave me the correct advice at that time and if not for Marlon and the team I cannot imagine the sate of my family given commercial stability defines all other day to day problems that you need to deal with. Wish the team all the best and can recommend them highly of the professionalism and excellent service.
