Public Home Loans is here to help public servants explore the exciting concept of rentvesting. This strategy allows you to rent a home in a location that suits your lifestyle, while simultaneously investing in real estate to build equity. Rentvesting offers lifestyle flexibility and the potential for financial growth, making it an appealing option for those looking to invest in property without compromising on where they live.
The main appeal of rentvesting lies in its ability to offer both lifestyle and financial benefits. You can live where you want, perhaps in a bustling city centre or a serene seaside town, while your investment property works for you. Public Home Loans can help you access investment loan options from banks and lenders across Australia, ensuring you find the right fit for your financial goals. With skyrocketing property prices, this strategy allows you to enter the property market without having to sacrifice your preferred living location.
Understanding the financial aspects of rentvesting is crucial. Finance & Mortgage Brokers at Public Home Loans can guide you through the intricacies of applying for an investment loan. The application process involves assessing your borrowing capacity, considering the loan amount, and understanding the loan to value ratio (LVR). Lenders mortgage insurance (LMI) may also be a consideration, depending on your LVR. Our brokers will help you research property options, whether you're interested in a town house, apartment, or stand-alone dwelling. They will also assist in finding good investment locations with potential rental income and tax benefits.
Interest rates play a significant role in your investment journey. Our experienced brokers can help you secure interest rate discounts and favourable terms, ensuring your investment is as cost-effective as possible. Stamp duty is another factor to consider when buying an investment property. This tax can vary depending on the property's location and value, so it's essential to factor it into your budget from the outset.
Rentvesting also requires careful planning regarding property management. Owning a rental property means you'll need to consider ongoing maintenance and tenant management. Public Home Loans can connect you with trusted property management professionals who can handle these tasks, allowing you to focus on the benefits of building equity through property ownership.
The potential rental income from your investment property can contribute significantly to covering your mortgage repayments. This income stream not only helps with affordability but also enhances the overall return on your investment. By choosing the right property in a promising location, you can maximise both rental yield and capital growth.

My unconditional approval was rejected just two days before settlement in Aug 2025, and you can imagine the pressure at that stage. Luckily My team refer me to Azura Team and there I e- meet Mr. Carl Elsass. He took the case under his wings and after submitting requested documents in just two days I got unconditional approval and also refinance of one of my unit to make the settlement possible. He really did the work like he is doing for himself. This is only I can feel through out the process. I definitely recommend Azura for their dedicated support and very soon I will be getting into the next one. Thanks Azura for helping the community.
