Frequently Asked Questions

What is Futurerent and how does it work with Elsewhere Pods?

Futurerent helps eligible property investors unlock equity from an investment property to help fund an Elsewhere Pods project, without refinancing their existing mortgage. Elsewhere Pods looks after the design, pricing, build, delivery and installation of your pod. Futurerent looks after your equity release and funding arrangement.

Use the Project Funding Planner to estimate how much Futurerent may be able to contribute towards your project and the potential impact on your rental income.

How much of my Elsewhere Pods project can Futurerent fund?

Futurerent can help eligible investors cash out up to $100,000 per investment property, subject to eligibility.

If your project costs less than the amount you can access, your Futurerent cash out may cover the full project cost. If your project costs more, the Project Funding Planner will show the amount Futurerent may cover and the remaining amount you would need to contribute.

For example, if your project costs $125,000 and your estimated Futurerent cash out is $100,000, you would need to contribute the remaining $25,000.

Is this the same as Elsewhere Pods Finance?

No. Elsewhere Pods offers several ways to pay for a project.

 

Futurerent is an equity release option specifically for property investors. It lets eligible investors access equity from an existing investment property without refinancing their mortgage.

 

Other Elsewhere Pods financing options may use different approval criteria, repayment structures and providers.

Who is eligible to use Futurerent?

Futurerent is designed for Australian property investors with an investment property that generates rental income.

Eligibility and the amount you may be able to cash out depend on factors including your investment property, rental income, property value and existing mortgage.

You can enter these details in the Project Funding Planner to get an indicative estimate before deciding whether to proceed.

Will using Futurerent affect my mortgage or credit score?

Futurerent lets eligible property investors access equity without refinancing or changing their existing mortgage. Using Futurerent also doesn't impact your credit score in the way a traditional credit application can.

Will using Futurerent affect my mortgage or credit score?

Futurerent receives an agreed portion of the rental income collected from your Elsewhere Pods property over the agreed term.

Your property manager directs the agreed amount to Futurerent and sends the remaining rental income to you as usual. Your tenant continues paying rent normally. The Project Funding Planner lets you see the estimated amount of rental income used and what may remain after Futurerent and your mortgage payments.
