It’s trivia time, Mortgage Choice community! 🧠🏠 We’re playing a game of Two Truths and a Lie to bust some of the peskiest property myths out there!
We asked our team to spot the fake statement out of these three:
👉 A cash gift from mum and dad can go towards your deposit.
👉 You can't get a home loan if you've been in your job for less than six months.
👉 A high credit card limit lowers your borrowing power, even if you owe nothing.
If you guessed the job rule is the lie, you're on the money! 💵 Too many people delay buying a home because they've recently switched jobs, but the truth is, there is no "one-size-fits-all" rule! Every lender looks at new employees differently, which means there's a solution out there for almost everybody.
Don't let mortgage myths hold you back from your dream home. Watch the video to hear the full breakdown, and if you’ve got a tricky employment situation, we’re here to help you navigate it. 🧭
