Background
A client in Brisbane was preparing to settle a property initially intended to be completed under another name. However, unforeseen circumstances led to a sudden shift in responsibility, creating both financial and emotional stress. With settlement approaching quickly, securing urgent financing became the top priority to ensure the purchase could proceed without delays.
Key Loan Metrics:
- Loan Type: Purchase of a Property
- Loan Amount: $415,000
- Loan-to-Value Ratio (LVR) Against Purchase Price: 65%
- Loan-to-Value Ratio (LVR) Against Valuation: 65%
The Challenge
The urgency of the loan, combined with legal complexities, required a lender who could act quickly and efficiently to secure settlement in time. The client faced multiple obstacles, including:
- Tight Settlement Timeline: With only five days left, every step needed to be executed flawlessly.
- Risk of Financial Loss: Any delay would result in losing the deposit and forfeiting the contract.
- Lender Delays: The original lender failed to provide approval after months of waiting, forcing the client to find an alternative finance solution at the last minute.
