80% is the common threshold below which most lenders skip lenders' mortgage insurance / private mortgage insurance. Above it, expect an added premium.

The formula

LTV

Loan amount ÷ property value

LTV is one of the first numbers a lender checks — it drives pricing, mortgage insurance requirements, and in some cases whether a loan is approved at all.

The same math is called LTV in the US and LVR (loan-to-value ratio) in Australia; this calculator swaps the label based on market but the formula is identical.
