Buying your first home

Get the most out of your savings

Work out what you can afford

Use our experience to make the best choices

Consider this...

  • On top of the purchase price of your home you will have stamp duty, mortgage insurance, legal and loan costs.
  • The First Home Owners Grant (FHOG) payment varies according to the type and location of your home purchase.
  • If you need financial assistance from family or friends there are several different ways this can be done.
  • The amount you can borrow with your savings will depend upon your choice of loan and lender (don’t rely on on-line calculators).
  • Decide on how you will operate your loan once it settles before you apply, so you have the features to meet your goals such as minimising your repayments or paying down your loan faster.
  • You can’t be certain that you will get your loan until it is fully approved so don’t unconditionally commit to a purchase until your loan is fully approved.
  • Your first home probably won’t be your last so buying a property which will grow in value will help your next purchase
