Affordability
To qualify for a mortgage in Australia, a calculation is used to establish whether you can afford to maintain the mortgage repayments. This will automatically happen when you complete our enquiry form and we will not charge you for this service.
There are two affordability calculations that are used in Australia; firstly, 5 x gross annual salary, less any existing mortgage borrowing. For example, client earns £100,000 per anum, and has existing mortgage borrowing of £75,000. We can therefore lend £425,000 (£100,000 x 5 minus £75,000).
There is also an affordability ratio applied. This means that your total monthly commitment, ie your UK mortgage payments and personal loan repayments, plus the repayments on your new Australian mortgage cannot exceed 50% of your net monthly income.
The amount that you can borrow is also restricted by the maximum loan to value as mentioned under Eligibility and criteria.
