STILL GOT QUESTIONS?

Answer to your questions

How much deposit do I actually need to buy my first home?

You don’t need 20% to get your foot in the door. While 20% helps you avoid Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI), many of our clients start with as little as 5% (or even 2% for eligible clients). By leveraging the First Home Guarantee (FHBG), we can often help you bypass LMI entirely, saving you thousands upfront and getting you into your home years sooner.

Stop guessing. Stop waiting. Start owning

You’re closer to your first home than you think, but you just need a plan and someone who knows the process inside-out.
