Phillip Island, 140 km south east of Melbourne, attracts 3.5 million visitor a year. This massive amount of tourists visit mainly during the summer months which are more temperate than that of the city because of the cooling effect of Bass Strait as laps its southern coastline. This area of Philip Island is also home to a large number of fairy penguins who attract visitors from around the world to witness their evening penguin parades as they return from the sea to feed their young. Another aquatic attraction is that of Seal Rocks. Seal Rocks are home to the largest colony of fur seals in the world and it has been estimated that around 16,000 seals have made this their home. You too can make it your home if you talk to a mortgage broker to organise an appropriate home loan for you.
Phillip Island is accessed via a 640 metre concrete bridge from the Victorian mainland town of San Remo that connects to Newhaven on the island itself. While the permanent population of Philip Island is only a little over 7,000 the holiday season sees this number swell to over 40,000, all living on an island 26 kilometres long by 9 kilometres wide. Most of the island is farmland where farmers graze cattle and sheep but there is also a large wildlife park on the island where wallabies and kangaroos roam among the visitors where they can be hand fed. The wildlife park contains more than 300 different species of animals, mostly indigenous to Australia, such as reptiles, snakes, birds of prey, parrots, Tasmanian devils, koalas and wombats.
Sporting wise Philip Island is a great surfing area as well as being home to Australian motor racing as it was the Philip Island motor racing circuit that held the original Australian Grand Prix in 1928, as well as the original Bathurst 1,000 which was held at Philip Island when it was known as the Armstrong 500.
If you wish to live among such exciting surroundings or see value in buying an investment property on Philip Island to help cater for the millions of visitors coming to the island every year, you should talk with a mortgage broker to discuss your plans. A mortgage broker will be able arrange a home loan or an investment loan to suit your personal situation from the hundreds on offer by his or her comprehensive panel of lenders.
A mortgage broker can save you the time of going through all the home and investment loans out there in the marketplace today. The different products on offer can be quite complex and daunting to a person unexperienced in the home loan industry. Of course you can choose to ‘go it alone’ if you wish but if you engage the services of a mortgage broker you will save all that worry and have peace of mind with the knowledge that the loan you finished up with is the best one available to match up with your personal needs and aspirations.
Your mortgage broker will have a panel of lenders who they are familiar with along with all their products, options, features and benefits. They keep themselves up to date on any changes taking place in the industry and will size up what is available and match that to what you need and can afford. It must also be remembered that the best deal may not necessarily be the cheapest, although cost will be a major factor in helping to determine which loan is finally chosen. The cost will have to be taken into account when working out your cash flow situation after the property is purchased particularly when buying an investment property that you wish to rent out. Philip Island is a seasonal venture as vacancy times are quite low in the summer but can be quite long during the winter.
An important aspect to take into account when contemplating whether you should use a mortgage broker or not, is that all your dealings with the mortgage broker are free as far as you are concerned. A mortgage broker earns his or her living from the commissions paid by the various lenders for the business the mortgage broker introduces them to, including yours.
A further protection you will have when using a mortgage broker to arrange a home or investment loan for you, is that although many loans appear as if they will give you exactly what you are looking for, they could include other drawbacks such as penalties, fees and charges that you may not be made aware of at the time. They may not have the flexibility that you will need sometime in the future when circumstances change as they often do. You may need to renovate, to build that extra room when the family expands and you may need help should you or your partner lose his or her job or become ill. Whatever the circumstances you will need a mortgage that will allow for these occasions when they occur.
Your mortgage broker will save you time as well as get you the right mortgage to suit your specific situation. They are experts in their field and as the home loan industry becomes more competitive you will need the help of an expert to sort out the good from the bad.
