Can I reduce the cost of LMI?
There isn’t much that you can do about stamp duty but the cost of LMI can be avoided in some situations.
You can apply for a family pledge loan if your parents can assist you with a guarantee over property that they own.
You can also consider a home loan with no LMI if you meet the eligibility criteria.
Does the cost vary in different states?
The calculator works for NSW, QLD, VIC, WA, SA, ACT, TAS and NT. Government fees such as stamp duty vary between different states while other costs won’t change much at all.
