Task 6.1

Task 7.1.Apart from requiring the presentation of a Credit Guide, the NCCP Act says nothing about what a mortgage broker should say about him/herself at the beginning of a client interview. In the space below, make a few brief points about what you would say about yourself and your firm at this stage. Remember that at the outside the client is primarily looking for assurance that the broker is concerned about them and their interests.

Task 7.2.List in point form the important information a Credit Guide conveys to the credit applicant. Task 7.3.Under the Anti-money Laundering and Counter-terrorism Financing Act 2006 (AML/CTF Act), mortgage brokers are required to establish the identity of their clients. To do this they must cite original copies of at least three primary documents and one secondary document. List three primary documents and one secondary document below.

Task 7.4.Mortgage brokers should present adequate information to clients to enable them to make a choice between loans. This involves conducting research to determine suitable loans and presenting clients with a choice among, say, three loans that are considered to be suitable for the client’s requirements. The characteristics of the three selected loans are then presented to clients in a way that allows a comparison to be made. The presentation may be made a piece of paper, or other means such as a Powerpoint overhead.

You are now required to use the internet or other sources to choose three loans that you believe will meet the requirements of Ross and Melissa. The relevant details should be placed in the spaces provided. Task 7.5 (a)Explain significant features of the loan products that you have chosen in words that the client would understand.

Task 7.6It is important to verify the information that you obtain from clients, particularly information that relates to income. List the documents that you should ask for and then examine to verify the incomes of Ross and Melissa. Task 7.7In dealing with clients, it is important to explain technical concepts in ‘plain English’ so that they understand them.

Then, in the third space, explain how Lender’s Mortgage Insurance is normally paid, once again expressing yourself in a way that the clients are likely to understand. Task 7.8Mortgage brokers assist their clients to complete their preferred lender’s credit application form, as well as applications for the First Home Buyer’s Grant and (where applicable) stamp duty exemption. Examples of these forms are set out over the following pages and you are required to complete them on behalf of Ross and Melissa. Remember that each form must be signed by the client, so facsimile signatures must be attached,

1.	The two financing options suggested for Roslyn has been considered with taking a car loan and dealer finance.	/1
2.	Some of the main features of the car finance is understood with variable interest rate, fixed interest rate, comparison rate, extra repayments, redraw facility, frequency of payment frequency and loan term. In dealer finance the term varies from three to four-year terms. Dealer finance allows for balloon payment which is payable end of the term. It offers lower interest rates than car loans, however the low interest may be applicable to only specific models and makes of car.	/2
3.	As Roslyn has newly started with her job, the dealer finance usually needs good credit for eligibility. Therefore, car loan is recommended as the main financing option. This will provide a range of competitive loan options and allow for the repayments to be repaid in full amount at the end of LT (Loan Term). However, Roslyn needs to be particularly aware of the higher interest rates than the dealer finance and she may need to pay upfront and ongoing fees during the entire loan period.	/2

Dear M/s. Roslyn, This is to inform you that based on your decision to buy a small hatchback I would suggest you that you choose the option of taking a car loan. Firstly, with a starting salary of $50,000 you will have several repayment options based on the rate of interest for the loan amount $ 15,800. Secondly, there is no need for balloon payment. The secured car loan needs to be paid with a monthly repayment of $ 317.78 at 6.99% fixed interest rate over a term of 5 years. This is inclusive of the total interest charge of $ 2,967 and loan establishment fees of $ 350. In this way you will need to pay a total loan amount of $ 18,767 over a period of 5 years. In compare to the dealer finance this option will save you $ 3,160 of balloon value charged at 20% rate of interest. Moreover, being new employed in the job there is less scope attaining the eligibility of dealer finance. Henceforth, this car loan option will be the suitable technique to efficiently use the credit amount. Yours sincerely,	/4

1.	The main information which needs to be maintained for obtaining a copy of credit file includes “Income – gross (before tax) and net salary (after tax), employment details and other income (from shares, rental property”. In addition to this, Roslyn should have the on-hand information of the approximate “values of property, vehicles, savings and superannuation”. Some of the other information needed is seen with “loan balances, repayment amounts, credit card or overdraft limits”. She needs to pay loan establishment fees of $ 350 for obtaining a copy of credit file.	/2
2.	“Credit reporting body (CRB)” is seen as the only authority to give consumer the right to take part in the “consumer credit reporting system”, along with a limited people and organizations. The organizations such as Trade insurers, credit providers and mortgage insurers have the right to access the credit report information.	/2
Further information Roslyn mentions that her mother’s washing machine has broken, and she urgently needs a replacement washing machine. The cost is less than a thousand dollars and she plans to use her credit card for the purchase. She tells you that she will make the minimum required repayment per month until she pays the machine off.
	Mark
Dear Roslyn, I have considered the price of washing machine to be $ 800. The market analysis has suggested that the average rate prevailing in Australia is seen to be 13.5% for credit cards. In case you wish to repay the credit amount with higher repayments, you will be able to save $ 162. This is considered with making a payment of $ 38 each month over a period of 2 years. In this way you will need to pay a total amount of $ 907. In case, you opt for the minimum repayment option then you need to pay $ 20 for a period of 4 years 6 Months. In this way you will be able to need to pay total amount $ 1069 which is higher than $ 907. Therefore, it is recommended to choose the higher repayment option for taking a credit of $ 800.	/2
