The written assignment marking processYou have 12 weeks from the date of your enrolment in this subject to submit your completed assignment.

If you reach the end of your initial enrolment period and have been deemed Not Yet Competent in one or more assessment items, then an additional 4 weeks will be granted, provided you attempted all assessment tasks during the initial enrolment period.

Your assessor will mark your written and oral assignment and return it to you in the Industry Knowledge and the Lending Process (DIPMB1v2) subject room in KapLearn under the ‘Assessment’ tab.

Make a reasonable attemptYou must demonstrate that you have made a reasonable attempt to answer all of the questions in your written assignment. Failure to do so will mean that your assignment will not be accepted for marking; therefore you will not receive the benefit of feedback on your submission.

If you do not meet these requirements, you will be notified. You will then have until your submission deadline to submit your completed written and oral assignment.

How your written assignment is gradedAssignment tasks are used to determine your ‘competence’ in demonstrating the required knowledge and/or skills for each subject. As a result, you will be graded as either competent or not yet competent.

Your assessor will follow the below process when marking your written assignment:• Assess your responses to each question, and sub-parts if applicable, and then determine whether you

have demonstrated competence in each question. • Determine if, on a holistic basis, your responses to the questions have demonstrated overall

competence.

You must be deemed competent in all assessment items in order to be awarded your qualification, including demonstrating competency in:• all of the exam questions• the written and oral assignment.

‘Not yet competent’ and resubmissionsShould sections of your assignment be marked as ‘not yet competent’ you will be given an additional opportunity to amend your responses so that you can demonstrate your competency to the required level.

You must address the assessor’s feedback in your amended responses. You only need amend those sections where the assessor has determined you are ‘not yet competent’.

Section 1: Case study 1 — Philip and Jennifer Brown

BackgroundPhilip and Jennifer Brown are a young couple about to buy their first home. They have been married for five years and during that time have rented an apartment while saving for their own home.

Following a personal referral from Glenn Brown, Philip’s brother you have already had a first meeting with Philip and Jennifer to discuss their objectives and needs. They admitted they have little time to do much research of lenders, have limited knowledge of the loan products available and have approached you to guide them through the process as they are confused.

During and subsequent to your first meeting clients have provided the basic information documents, including pay slips, tax returns, bank statements, property details for review/verification. You have now undertaken your preliminary assessment and need to discuss and present to clients the proposal covering the options and your recommendations to get the proposal moving as the Agent has indicated other parties are interested in the property.

They have been looking at properties for the past three months and have found a 10 year old established apartment that has really caught their eye, although they have some concern over the kitchen which requires some minor renovations.

They have not paid a deposit at this stage, but the Real Estate Agent has provided some guidance on additional fees and charges.

Following is a summary of the details of the property they wish to purchase, the couple’s financial and employment details, and the loan features they require.

Section 2: Case study 2 — Richard and Pauline Jackson

BackgroundRichard and Pauline Jackson have a small mowing and gardening business in which they have been working for the last eight years. As it is only the two of them in the business they operate as a partnership.

They have approached you to help restructure their finance, as they are finding the management of their debts a struggle following the loss of one of their major commercial property contracts.

After further questioning, you realise that the situation is more serious than they originally explained; they had missed payments on their mortgage, only pay the minimum on their credit card of 3% each month and the work ute they have on lease is expiring. They have a $15,000 residual payment due and do not have the funds available.

They lost the major contract 12 months ago and fell behind on the mortgage payments soon after. They spoke to their lender (First and Last Bank) and a ‘hardship application’ was approved. The missed payments were corrected by extending the term of their loan. Nothing adverse was recorded on their credit file but they are still struggling with all the monthly commitments.

After reading the case study above and reviewing their funding position below, answer the questions that follow:

Assets46 Walters Road, Ritchfield $490,000
