🏡 What's the ideal age to move out and buy your own home? 🏡⁣
⁣
Research by Finder shows most Australians believe that by age 31 it’s well and truly time to fly the nest.⁣
⁣
That’s not far off age 33 - the average age for first homebuyers (CommBank data). 🙌⁣
⁣
Living with mum and dad throughout your 20s can have its advantages though, such as saving up more for a first home deposit.⁣
⁣
And there are even federal government schemes, such as the First Home Super Saver Scheme, that can help boost those savings.⁣

🏗️ Which properties are still eligible for negative gearing? 🏗️⁣
⁣
Under new tax reforms, investors can still negatively gear a property, and claim a 50% CGT discount. 💰⁣
⁣
But only if you buy a newly built place that adds to housing supply. 🏡⁣
⁣
That includes off-the-plan apartments, residential construction on previously vacant land, or a duplex built through a knock-down rebuild replacing a single freestanding house. 🏗️⁣

🌸 Time to Spring clean your home loan? 🌸⁣
⁣
Spring cleaning your home loan can be an opportunity to compare what else is on the market, and potentially pay less on interest each month. ⁣
⁣
It’s also a chance to toss out unused features you're paying extra for, or, add features such as offset accounts - which can help you save on interest each month. 🏡⁣
⁣
To shake the curtain on your old home loan, talk to us. 💬⁣
⁣
We can let you know if your old loan is still a good match for your needs. 👇
