    Thanyou Rolf. Case by case basis of difference. For a single investment house it sounds like a case of personal preference.

    In my case it's for an equity pull on PPOR to the 85% LMI free offer. Switch to IO and put the pulled $ in an offset for a future move.

    CBA overall is better than WBC under these new rules ( unless it's a medico deal ...WBC has a slight advantage here), CBA has slight advantage in term of servicing.

    Overall i find CBA a lot better than WBC in term of policy( more creative and active) , rate , Service time, after settlement customer service and also CBA dont have a rental reliant policy whist WBC does which kills a lot of investment deals.

    WBC currently only shines in the fast track self employed deals + NO LMI deal and Medico.

    WBC medico

    - higher loan limit
    - Less requirements
    - Larger range of Medico
    - Better servicing policy- WBC will take 1 years tax return and is able to take the higher figure in term of servicing for a 90% No LMI under medico...but CBA will not.
    - Better rate discounting for Medico with WBC

    Thanks mick
    Do u still need to show 2yrs financials even though they use the latest one?
    If they only need 1yr financials, i would imagine that for servicibility, they r better yhan anz?
    Thanks

    IMO for Medicos I would say STG>WBC>ANZ>CBA

    I haven't run the numbers recently, but I wouldn't be surprised if ANZ's serviceability for Investors is greater than WBC so potentially ANZ could be second.

    Maybe this is in part to meet APRA requirement. At the same time new investment loans will need a 20% deposit.

    As anz and west pac use 1 yr financials, but west pac doesn't count negative gearing, but have better servicing calculators, i wonder who will end up more generous.
    Do westpac and st george share information about older tax returns and living expenses declared if you already have a loan with st george
    thanks

    st george floor rate for serviceability being 7.1%, and anz buffer being 2.75% above actual rate which if it was 4.15% would mean assessment at 6.9%.
    wouldn't that mean anz is more generous than stgeorge for new loans
    thanks

    No because ANZ sensitise negative gearing alot which makes a huge difference for investors. In addition they slap a $6000 credit card and the longer the interest only term, they adjust the remaining term accordingly. E.g 10 year interest only term, they calculate based on 20 years etc.

    does that mean anz don't fully count negative gearing? what was the meaning of "sensitising"
    $6000 credit card. does that mean they put a cc of at least 6k into serviceability calculations?
    thanks

    Not usually. But they do get a report on the conduct of banking products for each other. You wouldn't know about this unless there was an undisclosed liability or bad conduct on a loan.
