Say, 7-8 months soon?I'll be doing what Marco said and chucking it on the mortgage I think haha. Will not get anything except a BF F6 (prefer that model body kit over the older model single front bar style).There's one on carsales now, a white one for $22,000 (insane still for a 2008 sedan but fpvsoworthit) which I'd love to check out and get, but I'd be just teasing myself as I won't be able to get one until the house is done and we remortgage :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or have the banks wised up to this interest saver?I ended up getting a seperate car loan, its in the 9% area as I was told you couldn't tack it onto the house anymore. Mind you I didnt really pursue the topic either (the old boy was the one who mentioned it to me) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well it was similar to the above; but he did the math better on a piece of paper and had me believing lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XtRmn8 570Nm @1800rpm Donating Members 2,441 Member For: 21y 2m 1d Gender: Male Location: Perth, WA Posted 28/05/15 12:51 AM Share Posted 28/05/15 12:51 AM Adding extra depreciating debt onto your home loan which does not affect the value of the property is not a good long term investment. You want equity in your property and need equity in order to add to the loan. The bank wont just let you add to the mortgage that easily. If your mortage on the property is over 80% of the actual value you will be slugged with LMI (Lenders Mortgage Insurance) when and if you remortgage. Also bank valuations are about 10-15% below realistic market value so staying below the 80% can be tricky unless you originally only borrowed well under 80% or the value of the property boomed (which is highly unlikely in todays market).About 8 years ago in the property boom people were cleaning up on property. Build a house and walk away with an easy 100-150k profit after finishing it off and flogging it to some poor sucker. I got mates who built and sold 6+ houses in the boom time. Unfortunately I did not do as many These days though property values only appreciate about 5-7% a year max. We are going through the process atm and the place we are in now will not return even a third of the last place we sold 4 years ago.So in short, yes it seems like a good idea but in reality I'd keep the car seperate and pay it off asap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
