Westpac Banking Corporation now offers a 95% Loan-to-Value Ratio (LVR) for investment loans, allowing investors to secure properties with a 5% deposit plus Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI). This significant move by a "Big Four" bank opens high-LVR lending, typically reserved for smaller lenders, to more Australian investors.

π° Preserved Liquidity: Frees up cash for cosmetic renovations or emergency maintenance buffers.
ποΈ Portfolio Scaling: Enables diversification by spreading capital across multiple properties.
π Tax Efficiency: Higher leverage increases tax-deductible interest, benefiting negative gearing strategies.
