Thinking a 20% deposit is mandatory to buy your first home? Think again! 🏡✨
The 20% deposit myth stops far too many buyers in their tracks. The reality? You can often purchase with as little as 5% —or even 2% in some cases—thanks to a range of great government grants, schemes, and stamp duty concessions.
Here is how you can fast-track your keys sooner:
• First Home Guarantee Schemes: Buy with a 5% deposit without paying expensive Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI)
• Stamp Duty Relief: Save tens of thousands in upfront transaction costs
• Government Grants: Direct cash boosts to put toward your new build or purchase
• First Home Super Saver (FHSS) Scheme: Build your deposit faster by saving up to $50k inside super with tax concessions
• Family Guarantor: Use your parents' home equity as security to buy with a $0 deposit and avoid Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI) entirely
