💛 Does having a home loan = feel-good vibes? 💛⁣
⁣
For most of us, taking on a mortgage is essential to buy a home. 🏡⁣
⁣
But how does that big transition (generally) affect one's mental wellbeing?⁣
⁣
Interestingly, there's a bit of a difference between the financial anxiety levels of debt free households vs mortgage holder households, according to Agile Market Intelligence.⁣
⁣
When asked to describe their current financial situation, 31% of debt-free households were feeling financially anxious - up 2% from this time last year.⁣
⁣
Meanwhile, just 25% of mortgage holder households were feeling financially anxious - down 1% from a year earlier.⁣
⁣
If you'd like to explore whether home ownership is within reach for you - and how mortgage repayments would sit within your monthly household budget - then get in touch today. 👇 ⁣

🏁 Lock in: it’s a competitive market for buyers right now 🏁⁣
⁣
The supply of listed homes increased 3.1% in January 2026, according to SQM research. 📊⁣
⁣
But listings are still 11% lower compared to a year ago. 📉⁣
⁣
So, on average, new homes are selling after just 28 days on the market, according to NAB's latest Housing Monitor report. ⁣
⁣
Having all your ducks in a row can help provide you with a competitive edge. 🦆⁣
⁣
Home loan pre-approval could allow you to act faster when the right property comes along. ⁣
⁣
It could also help you bid with confidence at auctions. 🔨⁣
⁣
And it can also let sellers (and the agent) know you’re a serious buyer. ⁣
⁣
Get in touch today to discuss your borrowing power and pre-approval options. 👇⁣

🏠 First-home buyers use ‘COMO’ to achieve their goal 🏠⁣
⁣
Ready to buy. Ready to bend. 🤸‍♂️⁣
⁣
Many first home owners are embracing COMO - compromise or miss out - to break into the market. ⁣
⁣
PropTrack says 83% of buyers are willing to compromise on their first home. ⁣
⁣
The number of bedrooms, solar power and walk-in robes are the features most likely to be scratched from wish-lists. ✏️⁣
⁣
One area you shouldn’t compromise on is your choice of home loan. ⁣
⁣
The right loan offers a competitive rate backed by features you’ll actually use. 💡⁣

🏡 Home loan demand has just hit a 3-year high 🏡⁣
⁣
Equifax reports demand for home loans rose 18% in December compared to the same time the previous year. 📈⁣
⁣
It’s the biggest one month surge since 2022. ⁣
⁣
What was behind the increased appetite for home loans? 🤔⁣
⁣
Two key factors: three rate cuts in 2025, and the expanded 5% Deposit Scheme. ⁣
⁣
The government's 5% Deposit Scheme lets first home buyers get started with a small deposit and zero lenders mortgage insurance. ⁣
⁣
It could be the helping hand you’ve been waiting for. Get in touch to find out if you’re eligible. 👇⁣

🏘️ The big reveal: Australia’s most prolific property investors 🏘️⁣
⁣
Close to 2.3 million Australians earned rental income from property in 2022-23, according to the ATO.⁣
⁣
And they’re not all from uber-rich occupations. ⁣
⁣
In fact, teachers and nurses are among Australia’s top five most prolific property investors. 👩‍🏫👨‍⚕️⁣
⁣
That’s because there are multiple pathways to invest, even if you don’t have a big deposit, including:⁣
⁣
1. Consider harnessing home equity. 🏠⁣
⁣
2. Think about turning a first home into a rental. 🔁⁣
⁣
3. Weigh up rentvesting: live where you want, invest where you can afford. 📍⁣
⁣
4. Or consider co-investing with mates or family to boost buying power and share costs. 🤝⁣
⁣
Be sure to speak with a tax professional before investing. ⁣
⁣
And talk to us about the finance options that could match your situation and buying strategy. 👇⁣

🏘️ Why it could be time to consider buying a rental property 🏘️⁣
⁣
Investors have been buying property at record rates, according to the ABS. 📈⁣
⁣
Rents are up, vacancies are down, and interest rates on investment home loans are at their lowest since late 2023. ⁣
⁣
But high investment lending has attracted the attention of the banking watchdog APRA. 👀⁣
⁣
In the past, APRA has capped lending to investors. ⁣
⁣
Could it happen again? 🧐⁣
⁣
Some commentators think so, which could make it worth bringing forward your investment property buying plans.⁣
⁣
Get in touch and we can explain your borrowing power, and the lending options that help you become a property investor. 👇 ⁣
