Wealth Manager - Investor Assist

money

Wealth Maximiser - Investor Assist is a specifically designed product that does just what the name implies, provides both an avenue for investors to maximise and enhance their investment portfolio as well as assisting them to better manage their cash flow.

How Does It Work?

Using two different lenders, this sophisticated yet simple loan is structured as follows:

Lender A:
          Home Loan (Interest Only or Principal & Interest)
          Investment Loan (Interest Only)
          (Both loans are secured over the home property)

Lender B:
          Investment Line of Credit (capitalising facility)
          (LOC secured over the investment property)

The shortfall of funds between your investment income and outgoings can be capitalised so that you do not have to utilise your personal income to subsidise your investment costs. Rather, you can utilise your personal income for personal use, be it saving for a holiday, saving for further investment, or applying as much of it as possible to the repayment of your home loan. Investors who chose to capitalise their investment shortfall and are able to apply an additional amount from their personal income to the repayment of their home loan can repay their home loan faster making for a significant saving in interest.

Benefits of Wealth Maximiser - Investor Assist

	Better manage your cash flow - provides a buffer in case of vacancies or reduced dividend income.
	Capitalise the shortfall between investment income and outgoings.
	Utilise personal income for personal use (lifestyle or additional repayments to the home loan.

WEALTH MAXIMISER - INVESTOR ASSIST UPDATE - JUNE 2008
The ATO has recently published an edited version of a Private Ruling on its website: http://www.ato.gov.au/rba/content.asp?doc=/rba/content/81797.htm A taxpayer and client of Austral Mortgage, applied for the private ruling to seek confirmation from the ATO that if there was a shortfall between his investment income and his investment outgoings then that shortfall could be capitalised under the home and investment loan & line of credit structure noted in his application.

WEALTH MAXIMISER UPDATE - MAY 2008
Ever since the High Court decision in Hart's case, taxpayers have been seeking clarity from the ATO on the deductibility of capitalised interest in certain loan structures. On 16th April 2008 a favourable Private Ruling issued to an Austral client that provides insight into the ATO's current thinking on the subject.

WEALTH MAXIMISER UPDATE - FEBRUARY 2008
Wealth Maximiser Update 12th February 2008 - We have advice from the ATO that it is well advanced on a binding Tax Determination regarding the deductibility of capitalised interest on a line of credit facility. Borrowers with both a home loan and an investment loan should consider including a capitalising line of credit within their loan structure or at least ascertaining from their lender that they could access such a facility by way of a simple variation of their existing mortgage.
