Line of credit home loans

This type of property loan revolves around equity built up in your property and allows access to funds when needed. These products are creative ways to raise funds for investment by providing cash up to a pre-arranged limit. Each month the loan account balance is reduced by the amount of cash coming in and increased by the amount paid on the credit card or withdrawn in cash. As long as there is consistently more cash coming in than going out these accounts can work well. However, they can be very costly if the balance of the line of credit is not regularly reduced. It requires an interest-only payment as a minimum each month, which can add up to a lot of interest over the long term.

Advantages: Offers flexibility
Use the money you need and pay it back when you can
Home loan interest rates are generally lower then credit cards or personal loans.

Disadvantages: Usually higher interest rate then the standard home loan.
Can be very expensive if not used correctly
possibly reduced the equity in your house.

Interest only home loans

You repay the interest only on the principle of the loan. Repayments are much lower then a standard variable home loan. At the end of the interest only period usually one to five years, you must start making principle and interest repayments for the remainder of the loan

Advantages: Lower repayments initially so you have more money to renovate/improve the property.
Cuts the cost of buying a residential investment property in the short-term, which could allow you to make greater contributions to your principal place of residence.

Disadvantages: There will be sudden increase in repayments at the end of the Interest Only period and the loan converts to Principal and Interest repayments.
Lenders will assess your ability to repay the loan only on the principal and interest repayments. This can reduce your borrowing power, as these repayments will be higher than a loan on Principal and Interest for the full term.
