Who actually borrows here
Typical Kangaroo Point borrower profiles.
Owner-occupier drawn by the Green Bridge
A professional couple buying a river-view apartment to live in, valuing the new walk-and-cycle link into the CBD. The owner-occupier mix has lifted sharply since the bridge opened; lender choice turns on building exposure and floor area, so we check both before settling on a major bank or a second-tier lender that values the tower cleanly.
Investor holding for river-precinct yield
An investor buying a one or two-bed for the precinct's gross yield and tight vacancy. We keep second-tier and specialist non-bank options for towers a major restricts on exposure. Indicative structure is 80% LVR interest-only with a rental letter and offset against any owner-occupier security.
Downsizer wanting a walkable base
An empty-nester releasing equity from a Brisbane house and moving into a low-maintenance river apartment. These files are low-LVR after the prior sale, so the conversation is offset and split rather than approval; a short bridge keeps the timing clean where the sale settles after the new contract.
