20.01.2022 It seems that in the global markets there is no end to the bad news. However, Australia is flattening the curve and we are moving towards a healthy path forward under these challenging circumstances. For the foreseeable future, there is continued chaos expected in the financial markets with the Big Banks wearing the majority of the pain in the secured property lending segments. Based on current market conditions and restrictions on Lending Practices, it has made conditions ...almost impossible for the Banks to fund and function as they did prior to the pandemic. In our opinion this will create great opportunity in the First Mortgage Lending Area. Masu has been organising these loans for our clients for over 15 years achieving rates of 7-10% consistently throughout this period Our Loans include: - Interest Rates to Lenders from 7-10 % P/A. - Lending up to 65 % LVR secured by way of First Mortgage - 12 Month terms with most interest paid in advance To take advantage of our exclusive loan offerings please contact [email protected] to register your interest.

19.01.2022 Yesterday the Reserve Bank decided to keep the cash rate at the record low of 0.75, with many predicting that it could fall as low as 0.5 by April this year. This isnt great news for savers who have their money tied up in term deposits, as banks will continue to offer 1-2% interest at most! Savers, should be looking at alternative options such as First Mortgages which many of our clients at MASU opt for as they receive returns often between 8-12%....

14.01.2022 A must read, if you like many have had your investments affected by the coronavirus!

13.01.2022 Most of us think ‘it won’t happen to me.’ And if you are very lucky, it might not. But chances are, many of us will have our lives interrupted by an accident, illness or premature death.

13.01.2022 In 10, 20 or 30 years from now, which strategy is going to net you more cash?

13.01.2022 As an industry, we are very proud of the claims being paid to Australians in need every day. Im pleased to share with you the newly released claims statistics for 2019 of one of the major Australian Insurers. TAL paid $2.3 billion to over 34,000 Australians in 2019. Thats equivalent to over $45 million a week. This would be similar for all major insurers The reasons for claims are also interesting. Worth noting these stats include Group (Life/TPD, IP only) so the proportion... of Trauma claims may appear low but would be much higher if only Retail stats were provided. It will be interesting to see how COVID-19 impacts claims stats for 2020 and beyond. I understand they have paid a COVID-19 related Death claim already however I suspect Income Protection claims will be the space to watch if the economic fallout continues to be significant.

12.01.2022 Peace-of-mind is sticking to the plan Key advice: Abandoning the plan can be costly. An investment plan established during calmer times should not be ditched in periods of volatility. Having a solid plan for how to tackle volatile markets is key. The decision to stay the course is a simple but powerful investment plan for times such as these. It asks us to put our emotions to the side and use discipline and perspective instead.... There are three useful messages around the value of staying the course in turbulent times.

08.01.2022 We are currently taking expressions on interests for a new first mortgage we have coming up in January 2020. The property is situated 30km from the Melbourne CBD and is close to the airport. The total Loan will be $20 million on a $32 million valuation (62%) and the rate offered is 12% (prepaid in advance) on a 12 month term. To date $16million has been placed.... With banks currently offering at best 1-1.5% for term deposits, first mortgage options such as this is a great way to ensure you are receiving the best possible returns on your money. Settlement is expected in January / early February. If you are interested, please contact Martin at [email protected]

07.01.2022 Did you know you can boost your Superannuation and cut your Tax bill? One of the great things about superannuation is that you generally pay less tax, both on the money that goes in, and on the earnings your money makes. Even small amounts add up over time, and voluntary contributions can reduce the amount of tax you pay. If youre on a low income, you may be eligible for extra contributions from the government. Theres a number of contributions you might be able to consider..., depending on your personal circumstances, and they might also help you to manage your tax. Here are a few pointers to consider pre 30 June. If you are going to consider these remember most Funds have a cut-off date before the 30th so if you want to make sure you get the deduction check with the Fund when the last day, they will be accepting contributions

07.01.2022 I recently read this interesting article on Self Managed Super Funds. If you are considering setting up your own Fund then this is a relevant article is extremely important to read.

06.01.2022 Yesterday the RBA reduced the official interest rate to 0.1% with experts tipping low rates to remain for some time. For those looking to hold cash this is not a great position. Over the past 20 years we have been recommending First Mortgage Loans with rates averaging over 8% per annum. Historically, we have achieved over 3x Term Deposit rates.... All loans are secured by way of First Mortgage over a security property with loan to value ratios of up to 65%. Given the current climate we would be expecting rates to be 5-6% which would be an excellent result. As terms are 12 months should rates rise in the future we will be perfectly positioned to take advantage. If you would like to participate in our future offerings reach out to us!

04.01.2022 In 2008, the Global Financial Crisis (GFC) had a significant impact on retirement savings across the globe, and many thought it was a once-in-a-generation event, but as we have seen with COVID-19, financial downturns are a reality, and will likely happen multiple times during your lifetime. A panic mindset, like we are seeing now, can lead to poor decision-making that can have an impact on your life for years to come. Whether you are in the early stages of your career, alread...y retired, or anywhere in between, its critical that you structure your superannuation so that events like these dont define your future. Here are our tips for structuring your super. 1. Avoid panic decisions Its important to remember that your superannuation is a long-term investment, and even if you are nearing retirement, you can still make up losses as markets recover. Selling your shares at the bottom of the market is rarely, if ever, a good idea. 2. Understand your asset mix The asset mix that is right for you is dependant on your age and your goals, but there are many options out there, and you should be exploring the right one for you. 3. Know where your money is invested Many Australians take a set-and-forget mentality to their super, but just like any other investment, its crucial that you know exactly where it is invested not just the asset mix, but the actual Funds and fees they charge. 4. Dont go it alone Seeking expert advice is recommended before making any financial move but even more so when its related to your superannuation, as the stakes can be high. You dont need to be an expert, but its a good idea to have one in your corner. If you are worried about your superannuation or want to make sure you remain on track with your goals, contact us at [email protected]

04.01.2022 A leading insurance lawyer warns changes to superannuation due to start on Wednesday will likely leave hundreds of thousands of people facing the coronavirus pandemic without life or disability insurance.

02.01.2022 As many widely-held companies, including the big four banks, cut or defer dividends in the wake of COVID-19 and interest rates remain at record lows, investors- retirees, in particular are set to be the hardest hit. This is why at MASU for many years we have championed the cause of First Mortgages here the Investor becomes a Lender and takes security by way of a First Mortgage over a Borrowers property.

02.01.2022 Many experts are expecting the Reserve Bank to further cut interest rates when the next call is due in February. This would see the official cash rate plummet to just 0.50 of a percentage point. While the impact of record-low interest rates will mean that home owners will be able to save a significant amount of money over the life of their loan it does not go well for those wishing to keep cash reserves in either bank or Term Deposit Accounts as banks will be offering 1-2% i...nterest at most. For those looking at alternative interest options MASU Finance has been recommending First Mortgages for over 15 years. Our latest mortgage is paying 12% (prepaid) on a 12 month term with a loan to asset ratio of 59%. There is still limited allocation and for those interested please contact Martin at [email protected]
