Peter and Susan have a combined income of $95,000, a home loan, car loan, personal loan and a few credit card debts. In their current situation, they have no extra money to do anything. They want to start investing and create a plan for retirement. After a visit to our Melbourne office to discuss their situation with one of our qualified financial consultants, Peter and Susan have since restructured their finances and paid off all their credit card debts by consolidating them into their home loan. Further, they were able to free up their cash flow and put money towards an investment property.

Before Consolidation:

Liabilities
Oustanding Amount

However, after consolidation, there is only the Home Loan at $475,000.00, and an interest rate of 7.24%.

This means a Monthly Repayment of $3,237.12

And a savings per month of $408.25.
