Most first home buyers think the only way their parents can help is by giving them cash or a loan. But thereβs a third option and it doesnβt cost your parents a cent upfront. π‘
A guarantor home loan lets a parent or close family member use the equity in their property as extra security for your loan. That means you could buy with a smaller deposit, skip Lenders Mortgage Insurance, and get into the market sooner.
Your parents donβt need to transfer you any money or go on your property title. Their equity just acts as a guarantee for your loan. As long as you keep up your repayments, nothing changes for them.
Itβs one of the most powerful and most overlooked strategies for first home buyers in Australia. Most people donβt even know itβs an option because a lot of brokers donβt mention it.
