It’s a new financial year and thanks to their self-employed income verification policy, quick turnaround times and outstanding service, Resi Select is a great option to help your self-employed customers achieve their goals sooner.
Simple assessment requirements for self-employed customers
Resi Select allows self-employed customers to use accountant prepared financial statements to apply for a home loan. So, even if their FY24 tax return is yet to be completed, they can apply for their loan and get into their home sooner.
Trading entities simply need to provide:
- One year of accountant prepared annual financial statements.
- Plus, one year of either management or accountant prepared annual financial statements.
Also, the most recent year’s financial information can be used in isolation to assess servicing where there is a justifiable change within the business that reflects a sustainable increase in future performance. In this instance:
- The change must be documented in the broker notes.
- And supported with two years of financial evidence.
The benefits of Redraw versus Offset
One of the many benefits of having a flexible home loan product through Resi Select is the ability to have principal and interest home loan repayments calculated based on the balance of the loan upon request, rather than the limit.
As an example, if a customer has a home loan and has the full balance sitting in an offset account, while the interest being charged to the loan is nil, the offset account is still debited the full principal and interest monthly repayment.
Where Resi differs is that if a customer has a home loan and deposits the full balance into their redraw, giving them a zero balance, no interest is charged and Resi can base the repayment on the zero balance – resulting in no monthly repayment being required.
With an interest rate of 6.14% p.a (comparison rate 6.21% p.a)1 and 30 year loan term, that reduces a $2,437.45 monthly repayment to $0. If the customer then chooses to use their redraw, their repayments will only increase based on the new loan balance. For more information on comparison rates please refer to their Important Information below.
While Resi’s loan limit and the available redraw will still amortise over time, not having to make repayments based on the loan limit is quite useful to many of their borrowers.
