Here’s a surprising home loan fact for anyone with a HECS debt:
Banks don’t care about the size of your HECS debt. What they really focus on is your repayment amount.
And guess what?
That’s entirely based on your income.
Let’s say you’re earning $70,000 with a $50,000 HECS debt. Your repayment will be $1,750.
Boost that income to $100,000, and your repayment rockets up to $5,500—even if your HECS debt is $150,000.
It’s all about what’s coming out of your pay packet, so keep that in mind when planning your next property purchase.
