Buying a home loan with a small deposit is something that a lot of people want to know more about. Many people are interested in understanding how they can buy a home with a deposit as small as 10%.
The good news is we may be able to help you!
It is not uncommon for people to report that they got turned away when visiting a bank about buying a house with a small deposit. Being turned away or rejected can be confusing and cause people to lose hope.
While many banks or lenders prefer to deal with customers that have 20% deposits, there can be alternatives. In today’s property market a 20% deposit can be extremely expensive and hard to save up for. Take, for example, buying a $600,000 house; this might mean saving up 20%, which is $120,000! For most first time buyers, this is a lot of money.
But there is hope! We can help with 10% deposit style home loans. So if all that was required was a 10% deposit then you could buy a house with a lot less money. On a $600,000 house that might mean needing a deposit of just $60,000.
How to get a home loan with a small deposit?
It may be possible to buy a house with just a 10% deposit under certain circumstances. However this often needs to be approached carefully by a mortgage broker.
Where to get a deposit
If you do not have an adequate deposit yet, consider whether you need to save more in order to afford your first home.
It is also possible to receive a gift from family. The gift needs to be a genuine gift and not repayable over time. Our professional mortgage broker service can also look at how your parents may be able to assist you by being a guarantor or raising some funds from property or houses they own.
Can you get low deposit loans for investment properties?
