Emil Ackerman and John Pyke-Nott

Emil Ackerman and John Pyke-Nott have gained a lot of experience in the Australian private lending space. During the past sixteen years Emil Ackerman and John Pyke-Nott have identified that basic misunderstanding or the lack of understanding of lending terminology is the cause of most borrowers’ frustration.

Emil Ackerman and John Pyke-Nott will provide you with a background to the basic terminology in Lending process.

According to Emil Ackerman & John Pyke-Nott, Loan to Value ratio (LVR), this is the maximum percentage of the value of a security a lender will make available for a loan. Emil Ackerman and John-Pyke Nott say that this aspect of a loan application is one of the most crucial in assessing a loan.

According to Emil Ackerman and John-Pyke Nott, the Value of securities will be determined by a registered Valuer who will compile and provide a sworn Valuation of a proposed security for Emil Ackerman & John Pyke-Nott. Not only is the dollar Value of the security important, but according to Emil Ackerman and John Pyke-Nott, the commentary as contained in the body of the Valuation report is equally if not more important. Emil Ackerman and John Pyke-Nott always refer to the prudent lending clause which is contained in the report, as a guide when Emil Ackerman and John Pyke-Nott assess prospective loans. Emil Ackerman and John Pyke Nott say Most Valuations for construction and subdivisions contain a Value on an “as if complete” basis or according to Emil Ackerman and John Pyke-Nott the “as if complete” basis is commonly referred to as the Gross realisable Value (GRV).

Most private Lenders, according to Emil Ackerman and John Pyke Nott will use the GRV as a basis to determine how much they are prepared to lend on a particular development. Emil Ackerman and John Pyke-Nott say the rationaleis to use the GRV excluding GST and multiply that with the applicable LVR. Emil Ackerman and John Pyke-Nott concur this provides an accurate loan amount.
