What you receive for every mortgage

Every investment is specific to a single mortgage. Before you commit, you receive a full documentation pack for that loan — and you authorise each investment in writing.

◆

Overview Letter

Property details, interest rate, LVR, loan term and security position.

◆

Declaration of Trust

Specific to that mortgage, signed by a director of GH Securities Trustee Ltd.

◆

Property Valuation

Registered valuation and supporting property documentation.

◆

Authority to Invest

Your written authorisation for that specific mortgage. No investment is made without it.

There is no discretionary authority. GH Invest does not make investment decisions on your behalf — every mortgage you invest in is your decision.
