Land Tax
 Based on the property value, it is a State Government tax which is payable by the owners of the property.

Lender's Mortgage Insurance (LMI)
  LMI protects a bank against potential loss in the event of default by the borrower, where the sale of a bank's security fails to clear the loan in full. The insurance protects the bank, not the borrower. In most cases, banks have a preferred LMI provider, and they will require that borrowers purchase insurance from that provider. The lender, not the borrower, arranges LMI although the borrower pays for it.

Mortgage
  A legal document that gives a lender an interest in a security property and allows the lender to sell the property if the money lent is not repaid.
