Common home ownership myths, debunked.

We’re busting myths about first home ownership that you might
hear on your property journey.

You need a 20% deposit to buy your first home

You may have heard that you need at least a 20% deposit to enter the property market – plus fees. For a $450,000 home, this would mean you need nearly $100,000 in a bank account before you can purchase.
This is not true. It is often advised by some ‘experts’ simply so you avoid mortgage insurance, payable if you don’t have the 20% deposit. Mortgage insurance on a $450,000 home purchase with a minimal deposit usually ranges from $7,000 to $14,000. So, instead of aiming to save a potentially unattainable amount of $100,000 for a 20% deposit over many years – while property prices continue to climb – this amount is simply added to your mortgage.

You should wait for the housing market to crash like it did in America and then buy a bargain

The Global Financial Crisis was nearly 10 years ago, and the Australian property market was able to withstand that event. The property market in Australia is completely different to that of many other countries. Australia has a growing population from immigration, and the price of properties is driven by many factors including the demand.
With an average annual growth of over 8% for the last 40 years, property still makes for a sound investment.

Don't buy. Keep renting because it's cheaper

From time to time, an ‘expert’ will make the claim that renting and investing your savings can be more financially beneficial than owning your own home. This may be true in some very rare cases, but it would require you to have a carefully managed financial plan that you researched, implemented and stuck to when you were young.
Many young Australians do not possess the financial skills to manage this, and would likely end up a lot worse if they followed this advice. Owning your own home has many financial benefits, like being exempt from capital gains tax. More importantly, it offers security and a strong financial base for you to build wealth upon.

It's too hard to get into the market after renting, with the ongoing cost making it unaffordable

It is crucial that you obtain professional advice when you buy your new home, so you understand the costs relating to the purchase and owning the home before completing the sale.
