SUNIL KUMAR
CEO/Founder During Stage 4 Lockdown, we have continued to adapt to the changing times. The Reliance team have maintained excellent work remotely, but with the easing of restrictions at the end of September, there has been an exciting development with the reintroduction of onsite inspections. This challenging time has been the real test for the core strength of our well-trained team who have worked tirelessly to continue to serve our clients. We have stayed focused and given our very best. With the reintroduction of onsite inspections there has been a slight increase in activity from serious buyers over the last week. The 6.8% rise in demand in Victoria was only the second time we have seen an increase in the past 12 weeks and the largest increase in 19 months. With Melbourne real estate inspections permitted again, we are hopefully about to see an increase in demand across the state, which should drive demand nationally over the coming weeks. Victoria’s rental eviction moratorium was set to expire on 31 December but has now been extended to 2021. With the state experiencing a major economic shutdown, we are dealing with 19,450 active COVID-19 cases, and residential and commercial tenants will now be protected until 28 March 2021. Landlords will also be able to apply for cash payments, as announced by the Victorian Government. Despite all this, rental demand in Victoria has remained quite strong, having increased for six of the past eight weeks. Our team has done an incredible job during this time, navigating a virtual world to achieve a staggering 9372 virtual tours, guiding prospective buyers and tenants through the sometimes daunting technology and uncertainty of a new way to buy and sell, proving that buyers are still committed to their purchase with an incredible 79 properties sold and 110 new listings. We are filled with hope and determination to work together to come out of the lockdown period resilient and committed to our clients as ever. As we look forward to moving out of restrictions, it is still important to check up on those you around you and make sure they are safe and well. Make everyday count.
Stay Safe,
Sunil Kumar CEO/Founder

What to know when refinancing your home loan you considering refinancing but unsure on who to speak to or what is involved when it comes to refinancing your home loan? Here at Funding force we always want to give our clients the best advice and share our knowledge with you. Refinancing your home loans reaps many benefits and there are several reasons that you are considering refinancing. We will discuss the most common reasons we find that people want to refinance and what to consider when refinancing. What does it mean to refinance? Refinancing is quite a similar process to when you first applied for the original home loan. A refinance loan is a loan that pays out your existing home loan to create your new home loan with your new lender. It is a quicker process and less complex compared to when you initially first got your home loan. Why Refinance? Having a clear understanding of the purpose of you wanting to refinance your home will make the process much easier but these are the most common reasons we find as to why people want to refinance. • • •
Using the equity in your home to complete home renovations Wanting a better deal on your home loan e.g. better interest rate, lower fees, flexible repayments, more loan features Consolidate debt
What to consider? As always when looking at doing something financially there are always things that you should consider when doing so. Although there are so many benefits involved in refinancing, we have listed the most common factors you should consider when doing so. • • •
Early exit fees on current loan (if applicable) LMI (Lenders Mortgage Insurance) you may be asked to pay that again if you’re planning on borrowing more than 80% of the current market value Compare the costs of staying with your current loan and what it would be to change.
To find out more about how refinancing can benefit you and to get the best deal contact us on 03-8372 2018 Under the new laws, your tenant will not be able to stop paying the rent. But they will be entitled to. Apply to leave the tenancy if they want to for financial hardship, without paying fees for breaking the lease; or Stay and negotiate a rent reduction with you.

What you need to know about Buy Now, Pay Later What is Buy Now Pay Later? As the years have progressed so has technology and the way we buy. The buy now pay later option is essentially a layby that you’re able to take on the day without having to wait for the product. The buy now pay later option has become an incredibly popular option around Australia as it’s an interest free option available from many large retailers which makes shopping more attractive. What companies use the buy now pay later? There are many companies who now offer the buy now pay later option as over the years this option has been more appealing to the customer rather than pay large amounts upfront. Some of these options don’t require a credit check either but that doesn’t mean that it won’t affect you when wanting to obtain finance. • • • • •
Afterpay Openpay Zip Pay Laybuy Latitude Pay
What should you consider? These options are appealing to many Australians when using one of the buy now pay later options but there are also a few things that you should consider first. As mentioned earlier some of the companies we mentioned don’t do a credit check but they all are essentially a line of credit which can still effect you and here are the reasons why: • • • •
Fees – Whilst some companies are interest free, there are some that also charge you monthly fees / admin fees / late fees Overspend – It may sound obviously but it’s easy to do. You may think I just have $20 here and $30 dollars there but they can quickly add up over time and you have overspent. Loan Application – Some companies don’t require a credit check but when wanting to obtain finance lenders now take into concideration if the applicant uses the buy now pay later. Late Repayments – A mistake some people make when using the buy now pay later that they don’t think it can affect there credit score. Unfortunately using this as a way of spending definitely can because if you over spend and can no longer afford repayments it can be listed on your credit file.

Staging your home ready to sell You have made the decision to sell your home but are wondering if there are any tips and tricks that could help make your home ready to be put on the market. What we have done for you is created a list of things that can help improve the sale of your home. Furniture Placement of furniture in a home that is on the market is everything. You want to create that the room feels more spacious than small and cramped. That doesn’t mean that you should go out and buy new furniture but rearranging your furniture around to make that area seem larger really does the trick.
Sounds easy but it can be quite challenging when you have a lot around your home. Basically what you want to do is go back to basics and providing a blank canvas in a sense to potential buyers so they can see the value of the home and not be distracted by what is in it. Outdoors The exterior of the property is another important factor when selling your home. It can be as simple as pulling out those weeds, mowing the lawn, or even adding some new greenery. You want the exterior of the home to be as beautiful and appealing as the inside of your home.
Making every room functional You may find that not all rooms in the house are used or have much of a purpose but if you create that purpose it can help the potential buyer create that vision. A spare bedroom that is used to hang your washing to dry in the winter can be transformed into a study or could be set up as a guest bedroom.

The History of Point Cook
Photo credit: Rexness / flickr.com Point Cook is located 22km south-west in Melbourne, Victoria and is located within the City of Wyndham. Point Cook is now one of the major growth regions located in the western suburbs of Melbourne. The suburb was named after Lieutenant John Murray Cooke and was originally spelt as Point Cooke. The Federal Government purchased a large section of Point Cook in 1912 with the vision to establish the Australian Flying Corps (AFC). The AFC was such a success after the First World War it was then later renamed Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF). The RAAF base was established in March 1913 with its first military flight on the 1 st March 1914. The base was used as a flying training school until 1992. Today the Point Cook RAAF base is now home to the RAAF College and the RAAF Museum. In 1853 a gentleman by the name of Thomas Chirnside added the farmlands of Point Cook to his name. In 1857 along side his brother Andrew Chirnside built the famous 25 room called the Point Cook Homestead. After the completion of the homestead the brothers went on to begin the build of the beautiful mansion at Werribee Park. Upon completion of the mansion Andrew Chirnside and his wife called it home.
