🏡 How much do you really need to buy a first home? 🏡⁣

Long gone are the days when you needed to save up a full 20% deposit (plus extra for other expenses!).⁣

These days, you could need a deposit of just 5%, or even 2% if you’re a single parent, to buy a first home. 💰⁣

For a $700,000 first home, a 5% deposit is $35,000.⁣

Better yet, you may also be eligible for stamp duty exemptions/concessions or first home buyer grants.⁣

Don’t forget to factor in other upfront expenses though. ⚠️⁣

Legal fees, home insurance, stamp duty, and furniture removalists can all add up. 📦⁣

Need help crunching the numbers and figuring out how much you could borrow? That's our specialty. 👇⁣

🚩 Red flag habits that could hinder your home loan application 🚩⁣

(Not so) fun fact: Lenders assess a borrower’s ‘character’ as part of a home loan application. ⁣

It’s all about how responsibly you manage money and debts. 💳⁣

Turns out 7 in 10 Aussies have red flag spending habits that could hurt their character check. ⁣

Key red flags include spending on lottery tickets or scratchies, smokes or vapes, and even alcohol. ⁣

Banks may comb through three months of bank statements to check out your spending habits. 🔍⁣

What they’re looking for are spending patterns that could potentially derail your ability to make repayments. ⁣

📱 Gen Zs urged to skip influencer advice 📱⁣

Here’s a worrying finding. ⁣

Money watchdog, ASIC, says two-thirds of Gen Zs (18–28) are turning to social media for financial information and help. ⁣

Trouble is, that ‘help’ isn’t always high quality or trustworthy. 😬⁣

And ‘advice’ from influencers isn’t based on personal needs. ⁣

Let’s not even get started on social media being a hunting ground for scammers. 🕵️‍♂️⁣

Buying a home is one of life’s most important financial steps - which makes getting tailored support pivotal.⁣

And that's what we can offer. 🤝⁣

🥶 Brace yourselves, Winter is coming! 🥶⁣

Instead of cranking up the heater, a few budget-friendly steps could help keep your home cosy. ⁣

1. Seal gaps around windows and doors.⁣
2. Invest in curtains, blinds or even double glazing. ⁣
3. Insulation can reduce heating costs by around 45%.*⁣
4. Or, think big and embrace solar power. ⁣

😬 First home buyer regrets to avoid 😬⁣

Here are the top regrets of first home buyers have about their mortgage, according to a survey by Money.com.au.⁣

Paying too much in loan fees was the number one mistake. 💸⁣

That’s followed by not having a loan with a competitive interest rate. 📉⁣

Money.com.au found many first-time home buyers just apply for a loan with the first lender they come across. ⁣

It’s only later they realise they have a loan that doesn’t suit their long-term needs. ⁣

Skip the potential regrets. 🚫⁣

⚠️ Renovations that could lower your home’s value ⚠️⁣

There’s a lot at stake with home renovations - just because you spend money on home improvements, doesn't guarantee it will increase its value.🛠️⁣

Homewares retailer Cooper & Co says more than one-in-three Aussies have renovation regrets. 😬⁣

Some projects could even wipe up to $36,000 off your home’s value, they say. ⁣

Prime culprits can include poor-quality laminate flooring, dark finishes that don’t have wide appeal, and open-plan designs that lack privacy. ⁣

They suggest to skip here-today-gone-tomorrow trends, and instead pick reno options that are more timeless choices. ⏳⁣

They’re more likely to appeal to buyers and protect long-term value. 🏡⁣
