5 MISTAKES PROPERTY INVESTORS MAKE WHEN ARRANGING FINANCE
1. ONLY CHASING THE LOWEST RATE
- The lowest rate doesn't automatically mean the best deal.
2. LEAVING FINANCE TOO LATE
- A great property opportunity can become difficult if funding isn't arranged in time.
3. IGNORING LENDER CRITERIA
- Not every lender will consider every property, borrower or strategy.
4. FORGETTING THE FEES
- Look beyond the headline rate:
Consider:
* Arrangement fees
* Valuation
* Legal costs
* Exit costs
5. NOT HAVING A CLEAR EXIT STRATEGY
- Particularly important when considering short-term finance.
THE RIGHT FINANCE IS ABOUT MORE THAN THE RATE.

The “cheapest” mortgage isn't necessarily the most suitable.
When assessing funding, look at the whole deal, including criteria, fees, valuation, underwriting, speed and certainty of completion.
