Frequently Asked Questions

 

Frequently Asked Questions

 

How much will LongView Buying Boost add to my property budget?

+
LongView’s Buying Boost will provide clients with a loan-to-valuation ratio of 80% or more with up to 100% of what they have saved to buy a home. 

In exchange for the initial contribution, LongView will take a share (usually 35%) of any future capital growth in the property, which is paid to LongView when you sell your home, or can be paid out earlier if you decide to buy out LongView’s share. 

For example, say you have $200k saved to cover a deposit and stamp duty. LongView would contribute an additional $200k, which takes your total equity available to $400k. In exchange, you would pay LongView with a 35% share of any capital growth when you sold your property, as well the initial contribution back ($200k in this example). 

LongView can still assist clients with loan-to-valuation ratios less than 80% however, the amount we can provide will depend on your circumstance.

Do I still own my home?

+
Yes. You are the legal owner of the property and retain full decision-making rights. Buying Boost does not go on your title and does not take ownership.

What are the eligibility criteria?

+
To begin, we are helping people with at least $75,000 saved for their deposit and stamp duty, who are looking for buying in the following locations:

• Melbourne
•Sydney
•Brisbane
•Gold Coast

We are focused on helping you buy a quality property that is a good fit for your lifestyle, as well as a good financial investment. With that in mind, we are unlikely to invest in most apartments because they tend not to grow much in value over time.

If you don’t fit the criteria above, don’t fret – still get in touch with our team and we can walk you through how we might be able to help, or what other products and schemes (Government or Private) might be more suitable to you.

How does LongView make money?

+
We make our money by ensuring you are in a property that has strong capital growth potential and share in that upside with you.

We are experts in finding and negotiating deals for properties with capital growth potential. Our buyer advisors have purchased thousands of properties, and they are backed by an industry-leading team of data scientists who analyse the market all day, every day.

That’s why we are confident we can make such a good investment together. As a result, when you eventually sell your home, the value is expected to have increased substantially, and we will both make money together.

Are there any application costs?

+
No. We don’t charge you any fees to apply to LongView Buying Boost.

Will LongView Buying Boost contribute to stamp duty?

+
No, you are responsible for paying stamp duty on the property as you would be without Longview Buying Boost.

I've never purchased a home, what support will LongView Buying Boost provide to help me navigate the process?

+
We know that the buying process can be difficult to navigate, and we want you to have the best property journey you can. You will be partnered with a dedicated Buying Boost Specialist, who are supported by a Property Advisory team with decades of experience in buying the right properties as well as our in-house data science team who analyse decades of historical data and future trends to support our clients to make confident buying decisions.

What if I want to buy a property that LongView does not recommend?

+
It’s your home, so it’s your decision. Our team will work with you to help find and negotiate the best home for your needs and focus on ones we think will also be a good investment for you. If you want to buy a property that does not meet our investment criteria, we will tell you that. If you still have your heart set on such a property, we have a Property Advisory team that offer a range of services that can help you to secure that property on the best possible terms with your own money, but we won’t co-invest in it with you.

Can I use LongView Buying Boost to buy an investment property?

+
We are focused on supporting homeowners to buy a property to call home. As such, we are not supporting investment property purchases with LongView Buying Boost.However, we do have Property Advisory and Property Management experts who have decades of experience supporting investors to purchase and manage investment properties.
