🎙️ Property Finance Explained: Borrowing Capacity, LVR & Leverage (Episode 2)
In this episode of Your Property Guide, Matt Piotrowski breaks down property finance in Australia and why it’s the foundation of building a scalable investment portfolio - not just buying one property.
If you’re trying to understand how much you can borrow, how deposits work, or how to use equity, this episode gives you a clear, practical overview.
We cover:
- Borrowing capacity and what banks actually assess
- Loan-to-Value Ratio (LVR) and how it impacts your strategy
- How equity works and what “usable equity” really means
- Interest-only vs principal & interest loans
- Fixed vs variable interest rates
- Offset accounts vs redraw facilities
- Why serviceability — not equity — stops most investors
- The power of leverage in property investing
This episode is designed to help you think strategically about finance, so you don’t limit your ability to keep investing.
If this raised questions about your own situation, that’s the point. And if you want to make sure your finance is structured properly from day one and doesn’t hold you back long-term, the team at Dynamic Advisory can help guide you with a clear, scalable strategy.
