No matter what we do in life, there is always a first day for everyone while doing anything. Starting a new job, crawling as a child, driving a car, going to school, every activity has a first day. Same rule applies for the beginner option trading in the stock market.

It is just an agreement between two investors, where one party is ready to deliver something to another party, taking care of a specific period of time and price.

Motels can be a great investment if your going to run one yourself however a lot of financial intuitions do not like them and you will be hard pressed anyone who lends above 65% on a motel so to even start looking at this option you will need to either have a lot of cash or equity before applying for motel finance another downfall with motel finance is the interest rate is usually extremely high compared to a general commercial mortgaged interest rates.

There is one well known way around this is by using low doc finance and telling the lender you are buying the place as your residents this way you can get a residential mortgage interest rate however the motel can generally not have any more then 6 units in the building to be eligible for residential finance if you can buy a motel that makes a good income this way you will be laughing as your paying half the costs in interest then your competitors on their finance for your motel because you simply researched instead of jumping in feet first.

You will need to do a lot of research before picking the motel you want like checking out occupancy rates how long it has being profitable and if there is areason that the occupancy rates are a lot higher then last year this could be something is being constructed in town and a lot of workers are staying there this would be a bad choice because as soon as the work is finished so will the occupancy rate of your motel

A lot of investors use this type of finance to offset there investment properties they simply take out line of credit finance and put it in an offset account which in turn brings the costs of there mortgage rates down.

When applying for line of credit finance is your going to use this loan for business purposes it is wise to tell your lender that you will be using this money for other purposes such as buying a boat car, motorbike or going on an overseas holiday,

The reason for this is simple because once you tell the bank your using the line of credit finance to start up a business or even buy an established business they will immediately will put you onto a business lender which you will then pay a higher interest rate and have to provide the bank with a lot of financial information on the business you are considering buying which isn’t always possible depending on the structure of the business your applying the line of credit finance for, this is also quite a hassle if your planning on a starting your own business using which essentially is your own money.

Using line of credit finance also known as a LO.C and L.O.E,

Which is simply an abbreviation for line of credit or line of equity.

Remember a line of credit is a great way to access money without paying a lot in interest and has many uses and can help build your wealth if used in the correct manner, or you may just want to go on a extended family holiday or buy a new car why finance at a higher interest rate when you can access your equity at a much less rate then personal loan finance which is more commonly known about and used by the people unaware they can pay home finance interest rates to take money out of there home instead?

Commercial finance

Commercial finance is often used by property investors to move into the next investment market considering commercial properties are regarded as one of the safest investment with long term leases and national tenants you can secure a great commercial property that will pay itself off and put extra money into your pocket while also growing in value every year. This is what long term commercial investors do and is known as compounding interest so after 10 years this may have gone up say 50% which is 5% PA growth which is quite achievable if you have done your due diligence.

Although this sounds all great on a face value commercial property has many different criteria’s for example if you wanted to buy a motel you would need to have up to 50% of the costs as these types of properties are known as specialised security and usually have an lvr of up to 60%. Where as a retail office space you can lend up to 85% of the value of the building this is why you see many investors buying retail offices and industrial complexes as these two commercial properties are far easier to get finance for service station in particular are very difficult to get finance on as they are also a specialised security property and you will need around 50% deposit to even consider this option although if you can find a way around this most service stations have very good long term leases with plenty of positive cash flow so in conclusion if your looking for commercial finance you should look into retail shops, Offices and industrial buildings.
