📈 Is buying an investment property earlier the key to building wealth? 📈⁣
⁣
Regrets? One-in-three Aussie investors say they regret not investing earlier. 😬⁣
⁣
And perhaps for good reason...⁣
⁣
Finder research shows people who started investing in their 30s are 46% wealthier than those who waited until their 40s.⁣
⁣
That’s because investment returns can compound over time. 🔄⁣
⁣
Just look at property: 45% gains in the last five years alone! ⁣
⁣
And while past performance is not an indication of future performance, historically speaking, the national property market has delivered consistent long-term growth.🏡⁣
⁣
Of course, with all things investment related, please seek independent financial advice to consider all your options.⁣
⁣
But if you do decide to invest in property, consider contacting us to explore your investment loan options. 👇⁣

🏡 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. 👇⁣

😬 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. 🏡⁣
