    Does anyone know of any banks that still lend based on proposed titles?

    Clients have WAPC approval & council approval, but require the progress payment funds to pay off the rest of the WAPC application ( to issue the title ).

    I know bankwest & bank of queensland do, any one else?

    Are you a broker?

    What do you mean by proposed titles?

    I'm going through ANZ at the moment and they'll go to 70% LVR if titles are not issued, 80% if titled.

    No. Banks take a mortgage, or stamp a mortgage on a title. If the title isn't issued, then there's nothing to stamp.

    If you are subdividing, bank might already have their stamp on the original title. You can get an approval subject to the subdivision, but you can't get the funds until new titles are issued.

    Im pretty sure there are some lenders who can approve it subject to subdivision and who can release funds. Trying to worm out which ones.

    BW and Bank of Queenslnd allow it

    Proposed as in, they require the funds to complete the subdivision to issue the new title. So at the time of applying, its proposed subject to the bank releasing funds.

    Yes im a broker, not a fulltime one however

    If your pretty sure then confirm with bw and boq.

    The only way I can see that happening is if the bank controls the funds and pays it directly to the sro to issue the new titles.

    I've never heard of that before, but I haven't done much lending around clients subdividing.

    Then it's screwed. Lender calculators don't vary much post apra. Liberty being about the only outlier.

    What is the current lvr ?

    Could look at doing it as a Coded Nodoc Loan subject to an exit stategy or refinance post Titles.

    Oh cool, I'll give you a call soon then.
    Hopefully you can help, otherwise might as well complete sub-division and then try for finance
