Common Questions from First Home Buyers
How much deposit do I need?
In most cases, at least 5–10% of the property value, though some lenders offer low-deposit loans with lender’s mortgage insurance (LMI).
Can I access government grants?
Yes, depending on your state and circumstances, you may be eligible for schemes like the First Home Owner Grant or the First Home Guarantee.
What is lender’s mortgage insurance (LMI)?
LMI is a one-off cost when your deposit is below 20%. It protects the lender, not the borrower, but allows you to enter the market sooner.
What is pre-approval and do I need it?
Pre-approval gives you an idea of how much you can borrow. It’s not mandatory, but highly recommended before making an offer.
