~ BONDS FOR TEMPORARY RESIDENTS

We get many purchasers buying property on a temporary resident visa (TRV). Although they are seen as an SA resident for the duration of their Visa, there will likely be restrictions on the load amount granted. We've seen anywhere from 50% to 80% loans granted.

Some of the key points for the agent is to be aware of the type of visa, the expiry date, and any working conditions applied. If the purchaser is using income from SA to qualify the bond, then they must meet the visa conditions for the bank to be able to use that income.

We will ask for this info upfront to avoid any delays or issues with the F**A process.
