Andrew from Vista Financial 624 Posted March 14, 2016 Quite a common question that comes up by members is how much can I borrow on a mortgage/home loan when buying a house. The way lenders/banks assess borrowing power here is quite different to the way it is done in the UK and typically means that people are able to borrow way more than they could have in the UK and in my experience in a lot of cases more than they actually want to borrow. We have a borrowing power calculator available which is very useful to give an idea of what someone might be able to borrow which can be found here: Borrowing Power Calculator Financial Adviser (FPA Member AFP ®) / Tax (Financial) Adviser (TPB) SMSF Specialist Advisor™ (SSA™) / UK SIPP Authorised Adviser Specialising in UK Expat Retirement Planning Advice and Pension Transfers Director - Vista Financial Services – www.vistafs.com.au / 08 8381 7177 AR-322874 /AFSL-234951 Please note that my advice on this forum is general advice only and professional financial advice should be sought for your own personal situation.
