More Support for First Home Buyers
The Federal Government will continue to support low-deposit home loan schemes, helping eligible buyers enter the market sooner without needing a traditional 20% deposit. These initiatives can help reduce upfront costs and, in some cases, avoid lenders mortgage insurance (LMI).
For many first home buyers, this can significantly reduce the time needed to save for a home.
Housing Supply Remains a Priority
Another key focus of the budget is increasing housing supply through investment in housing and infrastructure projects. While these changes will take time to flow through to the market, the goal is to create more housing opportunities for future buyers.
How a Mortgage Broker Can Help
Government incentives can be valuable, but understanding which programs you’re eligible for can be confusing. That’s where a mortgage broker can help.
A broker can assist you by:
- Understanding your borrowing capacity
- Comparing loan options from multiple lenders
- Identifying available first-home buyer incentives
- Explaining deposit and LMI requirements
- Guiding you through the pre-approval process
Having expert advice early can help you avoid costly mistakes and give you confidence throughout your property journey.
