Inviva's home equity release loans are reverse mortgages that allows you to free up part of the value of your property without having to sell the property until you're ready. With an Inviva loan, you aren’t required to make any repayments of principal or interest until the end of the loan. Instead, interest capitalises so the loan balance increases over time, unless you choose to make voluntary repayments.
Inviva's Home Equity Release Loan is an evergreen mortgage which means it typically does not have a fixed loan term. The loan balance is generally repayable in full when the last remaining borrower permanently leaves the property, or the property is sold. If the security property is your residential home, then you’re required to occupy the property.
Inviva's Investment Property Equity Release Loan generally includes a term and does not include this occupancy condition.
All of Inviva's home equity release loans have flexible drawdown options: you can access the loan funds as an initial lump sum, a regular monthly income payment, a line of credit, or a combination of these options. You will only be charged interest on the amounts that you draw down.
With an Inviva loan, you’ll have the option to make repayments at any time. If you do make repayments, then you’ll generally be able to re-drawdown those funds again at a later stage, should you choose to.
You can use the loan for a variety of purposes - to fund the trip of a lifetime, buy a new car, renovate your home, supplement your retirement income, consolidate debt, help your kids or grandkids, and more.
Inviva offers loans from $50,000 up to $3,000,000 (more by consultation) for borrowers aged 55 years or over.
The maximum Loan-To-Value Ratio (LVR) depends on your age and the value of your property. A 55-year-old can generally borrow up to a maximum LVR of 15% (i.e., up to 15% of their property’s value). The maximum LVR then increases by 1% for each additional year of age. For example, a 73-year-old may be able to borrow up to a maximum of 33% of their property’s value.
As part of the application process, we’ll discuss with you if there are other circumstances that may impact the amount you can borrow or any other conditions.

Inviva requires that you obtain independent legal advice before entering a loan contract, to ensure that you understand the contract, and your rights and obligations associated with it. It is your responsibility to pay for this legal advice.
We encourage all customers to obtain financial advice. In some circumstances, at our discretion, we may require that you do so.
A Home Equity Release Loan is secured against your own home (the place you live in). It provides the opportunity for you to stay in your home as long as you need as it offers a Lifetime Occupancy Guarantee. This means we promise that, provided you are not in breach of your obligations to us, and the property is the home you live in, you and your co-borrower(s) cannot be removed from the property by us, and we will never force you to sell the property while you reside in it.
An Investment Property Equity Release Loan is secured against a rental or investment property. Unlike the Home Equity Release Loan, it has a fixed loan term, and the balance is usually repaid at the end of that period. With an Investment Property Equity Release Loan, you continue to own the property, earn rental income, and benefit from any capital growth while accessing some of its value.
Our current interest rate is 8.45% (comparison rate 8.48%*).
Inviva's Home Equity Release Loan and Investment Property Equity Release Loan have an upfront loan establishment fee of $995** to arrange settlement of the loan and include an online valuation and documentation. If a full in person valuation is requested by you or required by us, this will be passed on at cost. As part of the application process, we will let you know in advance if a full in person valuation is needed, and you may be required to pay for this separately in advance. The loan establishment fee is deducted from the loan amount at settlement along with any government charges that apply.
There is no ongoing monthly fee, however there is a discharge administration fee of $450 payable on discharge of any security interest either during or at the conclusion of the loan.
