5. Maximum Loan to Value Ratio (LVR)

The Loan to Value ratio (LVR) refers to the calculation of the loan amount as a percentage of the security value. Security value initially can be an estimate for refinances, until which point we receive a suitable valuation from an accredited panel valuer. Likewise, for a purchase, this will be the lower of the contracted purchase price or valuation.
