    Hi folks,

    Ive earned $350k in this tax year so far from trading the stock market.

    Last year was next to nothing.

    How can i borrow for a property?

    Will anybody lend to me? Or do i have to form a company first with me as a PAYG employee?

    Many Thanks

    Set up a hedge fund and draw a fixed salary from it.

    You could possibly borrow. Even if averaged out over 2 years it would be good income.

    I would love to know how you've managed to select your stocks - they've provided really well for you. Were they bought and sold this year, or have they been a long term hold that have just performed well this year?

    What Rolf has said is really important - even if a lender would lend you based on a $350k income, if it's not replicable you won't be doing yourself any favours and could easily get yourself in hot water.

    Why was this year so successful when last year wasn't?

    The market averages 11% return per annum over the long run. If you have $3m equity investment you should in average make $300k. If you have an edge over the average retail investor you should make 15-20% return meaning you'd need $1.5m-2m to make $300k per annum.

    With those returns why would you buy property? Is it for a PPOR?

    Is that this financial year? Considering we are only half way through this financial year.
    Sounds like day trading, or options trading. Highly volatile - win big, but can also lose big.

    Thanks for the replies. I've turned $50k into approx $370k since July 1 with no leverage. I mostly trade small to mid caps and some move 5% in a day. I have compounded much of my gains.

    I cannot buy a house with that as my tax bill is currently standing at $120k. I already have PPOR on the way in my other half s name. I wouldn't want to even if my tax bill was zero. Leverage is the name of the game.

    But back to my question of whether a bank would lend on this at the end of the tax year even if i didn't earn another cent?

    Would a low doc loan lender suffice with a sign off from an accountant?

    Thanks

    I guess it depends on the future. I we see a bear market then gains could disappear. This is another reason why i wish to borrow asap.

    Hi Jess. I simply wasn't trading last year. I can place down a 20% deposit on an IP so the loan would be serviceable as almost cash flow neutral whether i continued to earn $70k per month gross or not.
