The new product comes hot on the heels of the company’s refinance and non-genuine savings low doc home loan launched late last month.
“By lowering the equity requirements, experienced and first time investors can take advantage of the booming residential investment housing market,” Collins general manager Allan Willoughby said.
Mr Willoughby told The Adviser that the new product would entice investors who do not have genuine savings such as homeowners with existing properties.
“Our new 95 per cent LVR Investor package also fills a void left by the departure of the major banks from this space. The majors have been progressively reducing LVR’s on their loans making it difficult for first time investors and first home buyers to enter the market," he said.
