First-home essentials
A quick guide to the parts that matter most - deposit, budget, the buying steps and picking the right loan.
How much do you actually need?
Many buyers aim for 20%, but it’s possible to purchase with less. Low-deposit loans can involve Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI), and some government-backed guarantees may help eligible buyers reduce or avoid LMI. Exact options depend on your circumstances and the lender’s criteria.
Shape a budget that still feels comfortable
- Estimate your borrowing capacity from income and expenses.
- Model repayments at today’s rate and a buffer above it.
- Include buying costs (duty, legals, inspections) in your plan.
From pre-approval to settlement
- Get pre-approved so you can make offers with confidence.
- Find a place, make an offer, then valuations and legals kick in.
- We coordinate the moving parts through to settlement day.

Fixed, variable or a split; features like offset or redraw; and the right fee/feature balance. We’ll compare options, explain trade-offs, and outline approval pathways.
