How to do a Funding Position

The Funding Position calculates all the loan amount, security values, LVR, LMI, stamp duty and other fees to provide a summary position.

What can a Funding Position do? 

It can be used in a number of ways, for example, to work out:

• Maximum loan amount based on savings.
• Required funds for a specific loan amount or LVR.
• Required funds for a specific scenario.
