Task
Assume you are a mortgage broker a part of a mortgage brokerage company. Consider the scenario given below and using the information contained in the scenario, prepare a formal loan submission using the following headings. Use subheadings where appropriate to ensure your submission will be easily read and understood by the lender.
Scenario
Robin Brown has been a real estate agent for over 20 years and jointly with his wife Ally own 6 shops at 55 Park Road, Belmont. Mr and Mrs Brown own the shopping centre under the Brown Family Trust. The property was valued 2 years ago at $1,450,000 and has a current ABZ Bank Mortgage of $625,000. Five of the shops are rented out for $96,000. The sixth shop is occupied by Mr Brown’s real estate business, Brown’s Real Estate Pty Ltd, which pays annual rental of $42,000 to the family trust. For tax purposes Brown’s Real Estate pays rent which is $20,000 in excess of the fair market rental value of the shop it occupies.
Brown’s Real Estate Pty Ltd was formed at the beginning of the last financial year to take over the real estate agency business, which was previously conducted by a partnership between Mr Brown and Billy Watson. Brown’s Real Estate Pty Ltd took over the business when Mr Watson retired.
Mr and Mrs Brown now wish to acquire 3,000m2 of land near their existing shopping centre and hold it for 1 – 2 years pending rezoning. The purchase price is $600,000. The land was previously used as a State Government Health and Dental Centre, but the building was demolished when it became obsolete. The land is currently zoned ‘Special Purpose’, but the local council earmarked the land for future ‘Commercial’ use in it recently released Town Planning Scheme. The land is located at 423 Belmont Road, Belmont and has a two street frontage with considerable passing traffic.
The Browns have contracted to purchase the property in their capacity as trustees of their family trust and settlement is due with 60 days. They wish to raise 100% of the purchase price plus $25,000 for stamp duty, financing and conveyancing costs. They are willing to offer both the land and their existing shopping centre as security for the proposed loan. They will contribute a further $20,000 over the next 1‐2 years to cover the costs associated with re‐zoning of the property and obtaining approval to develop another shopping centre.

Unfortunately ABZ Bank policy does not allow them to lend against land zoned ‘Special Purpose’ and cannot assist with the purchase. The Browns have appointed you to approach an alternative lender to refinance their ABZ Bank Loan and obtain the additional funds required.
Assume an interest rate of 7% for a commercial loan, 9% for an overdraft.

Scenario
You have met one of your clients and he has referred you to another commercial client. They are joint company owners Mike Wilson and Eric Jones and they run a successful and growing transport company. They have a diverse client base spread over many industry sectors which are a conscious management strategy to ensure that they do not have significant business risk to a specific market segment or client. All contracts are written with 30 day payment terms. Background industry checks as well as credit history checks are completed on all new business prospects to ensure that there are no adverse issues that may impact on future trading arrangements. Whilst they have only been trading for 34 months they have a solid business plan with actual results to date exceeding projected sales and profit estimates included in their plan.
The business was established with unsecured (apart from Personal Guarantees) Seed Capital of $500k from a private investor based on a guaranteed return of $45k pa, and an overall term of 5 years which also requires a principal reduction of $100k pa. The loan can be repaid at any time without penalty.
Mike and Eric ’s Requirements:
To accommodate new contracts in hand and planned future expansion, the applicants require establishment of an Equipment Finance Limit of $500k to purchase Trucks and Dog Trailers. A new company, Walker Transport Pty Ltd, has been established to purchase equipment which will be internally hired to Walker Holdings Pty Ltd ATF. The Walker Discretionary Trust (the trading entity). Hire charges will equate to finance payments. The trust holds all shares in Walker Transport Pty Ltd.
Mike and Eric are directors of both companies. As part of this expansion the company has leased a second depot at a cost of $6000pm and will also retain the existing depot. They currently have 5 employees and where needed are using sub‐contract operators to fill shortfall in their delivery capacity. Purchase of new additional trucks and trailers will provide additional capacity and flexibility and reduce reliance on sub‐contractors who can be unreliable.
Whilst a limit is being sought, purchases will only proceed where additional work has been contracted or older equipment is being replaced. Applicants are happy to provide half yearly management accounts as an approval covenant to give a lender comfort that projected sales and profits are in line with budgets. Applicants are keen to reduce debt as quickly as possible and have therefore decided to finance all new equipment over a 48 month term, without a balloon/residual and will commit a refund of GST Input Credits as additional repayments built into the contracted loan structure.
