- Do you know the difference between buying an established home or building new?
There is a big difference between buying an established home or building a brand-new home. If you are planning on staying in your new home for the foreseeable future, then building means that you can create a home that fits your lifestyle now and into the future. Your home should grow with you and represent what you require now and into the future as circumstances change. Established homes require maintenance and sometimes extensive renovations- your new home will minimise the requirement for maintenance for many years.

- How much of a deposit does your bank require to grant you pre-approval?
Each mortgage provider is different when it comes to how much deposit is needed to start building a new home, therefore it is important to speak a qualified advisor to determine what cash savings you need to start. If you are also using the FHOG this can be helpful for your mortgage deposit. Our mortgage broker Arin Di Camillo (Australian Credit License 499086) is only too happy to talk you through the various options in detail.
