From Bankruptcy to Stability with VMG

A married couple approached VMG for assistance with refinancing their home loan and debt consolidation, which included ATO debt. After enduring significant financial setbacks and conflicting advice, they sought a way to regain control over their finances and establish a fresh start.

Loan Details:

  • Loan Amount: $880,000
  • Purpose: Refinance and debt consolidation, including ATO debt

Challenges Faced:

  • Significant tax debt and arrears: The husband, a medical professional, had accumulated large tax debts and home loan arrears over time.
  • Advice to file for Bankruptcy: Advised by his former accountant to file for bankruptcy, he reluctantly followed this guidance despite his discomfort with the decision.
  • Accrued debts Post-Bankruptcy: After being discharged, additional ATO debts had accrued, further impacting the couple’s financial stability.

A New Plan for Financial Stability:

The couple engaged a new accountant, who developed a comprehensive business plan to improve their financial standing. This plan, shared with VMG, demonstrated the couple’s renewed commitment to managing their finances responsibly. With a profitable medical practice and a clear path forward, they were able to show serviceability, essential to securing a refinancing option.

How VMG Assisted:

VMG’s broker partner reached out to them seeking a solution to refinance the owner-occupied property, consolidate existing debts, and resolve the ATO arrears. VMG conducted an in-depth review of their financial standing and, with the reassurance of their business plan and renewed financial approach, determined they could manage repayments sustainably.

Outcome:

Recognising the couple’s commitment to financial stability and the profitability of their business, VMG approved a refinance loan of $880,000. This allowed them to consolidate debt, settle outstanding arrears, and move forward with a fresh start.
