Moving to Australia on a 457 visa home loan - YouTube

Channel: unknown

[3]
hello this is andrew with Australian
[5]
expat loans and thanks for joining me in
[8]
this video on moving to Australia and
[10]
buying a home with a 457 visa I'd like
[14]
to keep this video relatively short but
[16]
I just like to be able to point out and
[17]
share with you some of the common
[19]
questions that I get asked about buying
[22]
our home in Australia is a temporary
[24]
resident and how much it will cost and
[27]
so forth in terms of how much you will
[29]
need to buy a property it is generally
[32]
accepted that if you're buying a home in
[35]
Australia that as a temporary resident
[38]
on a 457 visa or some of the other
[41]
classes that are accepted you'll require
[44]
require around a 20-percent deposit so
[47]
I've just thought I use an example just
[48]
to make it easy if you're buying a home
[52]
for five hundred thousand dollars in
[54]
Australia as an established home you
[56]
need about twenty percent deposit which
[58]
is around a hundred thousand dollars and
[60]
you should probably calculate another
[62]
five percent so in this example of the
[65]
twenty-five thousand dollars to cover
[67]
stamp duty and legals lender costs etc
[72]
so to make it very easy for yourself if
[75]
you're looking at any type of property
[77]
simply add twenty five percent of the
[80]
purchase price and that's what you
[82]
require so again in this example five
[85]
hundred thousand dollar purchase price
[86]
twenty-five percent is a hundred and
[88]
twenty five thousand that will be
[90]
sufficient to have a deposit and also
[93]
cover your closing costs that would mean
[96]
that a lender in Australia will advance
[98]
you around four hundred thousand dollars
[100]
as a home loan in terms of the procedure
[105]
as a non-resident please be aware that
[108]
there's only going to be a select number
[109]
of major leading lenders that will
[112]
preview finance for you every lender in
[115]
australia's Got different criteria for
[118]
resident and non-resident but if you
[121]
search around you will find lenders that
[122]
will fund you the eighty percent on the
[126]
same terms as a resident so you won't be
[128]
disadvantaged and you will get the same
[131]
type of right and fees etc and
[134]
conditions
[135]
an Australian would living here you just
[137]
need to value the research and find the
[139]
one that will actually accept your
[141]
financial situation and also being on a
[144]
457 visa if you're not sure you know try
[148]
and get in touch with a mortgage broker
[150]
or you'll probably just have to be able
[152]
to ring around all the different lenders
[154]
until you find someone that will
[155]
actually lend you the money I've also
[159]
got to do numbers in terms of funds
[160]
available purchase price how much you
[162]
can afford year so again you need to be
[164]
able to make sure that and understand
[167]
that every different lender has got
[169]
their own policies guidelines criteria
[171]
so although you may speak with one
[173]
lender that will not provide you with
[176]
the money that you're seeking another
[178]
lender may so again you need to be able
[181]
to understand and know which lender will
[183]
firstly provide you with the funds but
[186]
also based on your income and expenses
[188]
will give you the amount that you're
[190]
seeking so again if you're not sure
[192]
speak to professional in the field that
[194]
will guide you there are plenty of
[196]
mortgage brokers around like myself
[199]
there are a few in this country that
[201]
specialize in temporary residents or
[203]
non-residents so seek them out and
[206]
they'll be able to guide you into the
[208]
right direction the other thing that's
[211]
obviously really important to be aware
[213]
of that we in Australia have a
[215]
government agency which is a Foreign
[217]
Investment Review Board also commonly
[219]
referred to as Ferb so if you are a
[223]
person that's on a temp that's a
[225]
temporary Australian here on a 457 visa
[228]
there's a few things you should be aware
[230]
of first of all you can buy established
[234]
or new property but it must be your
[236]
principal place of residency so it must
[238]
be bought as your home you must sell the
[242]
property when you leave Australia unless
[244]
of course you are applying to be a
[245]
permanent resident and you don't need to
[249]
you can't buy new existing so you cannot
[254]
buy property that is established if
[257]
you're not going to live in it so it
[258]
must be for your home if it's an
[261]
established property also be aware that
[264]
if you applying to the Foreign
[267]
Investment Review Board
[268]
it is not the application it's based on
[270]
your personal circumstances but it's
[272]
based on the property you're buying so
[275]
I've just put in here that in the
[278]
contract of sale you need to have
[280]
included that this contract is subject
[283]
to foreign investment approval if such
[285]
approval is not obtained within 40 days
[287]
this contract is terminated and all
[289]
monies deposited will be refunded so the
[292]
procedure here is that if you as a
[294]
temporary resident you can apply and get
[297]
your finance approved if you're then
[299]
looking around and you find a property
[300]
that you'd like to buy you then
[303]
negotiate with the real estate agents
[305]
once you have an offer accepted then you
[308]
need to have that clause stated within
[310]
the contract of sale and you didn't then
[313]
need to make an application to the
[314]
Foreign Investment Review Board now it's
[317]
very simple I'm just going to show you
[319]
hear that that's not the form after this
[322]
part first simply go online and go to
[326]
Wi-Fi I big of a you and you'll see the
[332]
their website you simply click on the
[335]
real estate section such from there
[337]

[340]
estate I'm told that the how to apply
[342]
tab you can get there either way but
[345]
it's good to be able to read all these
[346]
things so you get a good understanding
[347]
of what's required if you buy an
[350]
established I'm go into second hand and
[354]
how to apply simply click here and as I
[357]

[359]

[362]

[370]
three pages long another scroll down to

[384]
applications based on the property once
[386]
you obtain approval that goes to the
[388]
lender as well and you then be able to
[391]
purchase the property so it's not a
[394]
difficult process is just knowing the
[396]
steps that you need to go through
