Investment property loans are a type of home loan that is taken out and used to purchase an investment property. The difference between this and the traditional home loan simply comes down to your intended use of the property you are purchasing. A traditional home loan is also known as an owner-occupier loan. The intention is to buy a property that you can move into and live in. With an investment property, your intention is to rent it out to tenants to earn an income, it to flip it and make a property.
Why exactly does it matter how you intend to use the property when you take out a home loan? Often, the distinction is made at the interest rate you are charged on your loan. Investment property loans typically cost more.
In recent years there has been a rise in the number of people applying for an investment property loan.
In response, the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) announced a 10% cap on new investor lending. This meant a reduction in the number of investment loans going out, so as a result, lenders have lifted the rates to offset this change.

Unlike other investments that tend to be quite risky, an investment property is the opposite. While there are always ups and downs in the property market that affect prices, the underlying trend is one of steady growth. This means in all likelihood, your property will go up in value over time, making it a worthwhile investment.
All you have to manage is a 20% deposit and then get a creditor to handle the rest. As a result of the security that often comes with owning a property, banks and other lenders will normally loan you more money than any other investment out there. Not only is there less risk involved with upfront costs, but the costs are much lower for you as well.
Investments by nature are risky. However, an investment property allows you to make all the decisions. If you aren’t getting the return you expected, you don’t just have to sit back and take it. Instead, you have a number of options available to you. You can do up the place to make it more appealing to renters, add furniture, do a complete renovation and flip it. It’s up to you to make it work.
Investment properties also come with different tax benefits. This is something you will need to do your research on to discover how it works in your particular situation.
As mentioned above, the interest rate on investment property loans is higher than that of your typical owner-occupier loan. The first thing you have to decide is the type of loan you want to take out.

Always speak to the locals and real estate agents to get a feel for an area if it isn’t one you are familiar with. They will tell you the ins and outs (the residents especially). You want a place that is near transport, so it’s convenient, close to healthcare, food and shops, childcare, schools and other facilities. You need to do your research about the area and look into rental prices so that you can do the maths before you commit.
Once you are ready to start looking for a property you want to buy, it’s important to get your pre-approval for investment property loans. Remember, buying a property can take time and is subject to changes in the market. It’s important to be patient and not rush into anything, as this can affect how well your investment goes.
