Benefits of Property Share
Pool your money with friends or family to buy your first home, or enter the market as a property investor
You can borrow more funds that you would otherwise be able to afford on your own
Buy the property you want, rather than settling for a cheaper option
Split the costs of your home any way you like and let each borrower decide how they want to manage their loan repayments
Each borrower can access a range of features including redraw facilities, mortgage offset accounts and lines of credit.
You can use Property Share on most home loans and the features and rates of that home loan will apply accordingly.
How to apply for Property Share
Each borrower must be an owner of the property (no third-party guarantors) and show they can repay their portion of the home loan (prove servicing of the loan)
You'll need to guarantee each others' loans as security support
You must seek legal advice and all sign a Property Share Authority Declaration form before entering into a Property Share Agreement.
