🤝 Broker versus bot? It’s no contest 🤝⁣
⁣
The person-to-person support of a mortgage broker eclipses anything an AI bot can dish up. 🤖⁣
⁣
That’s the finding of Great Southern Bank research. 📊⁣
⁣
It confirms 7-in-10 Australians say guidance from mortgage brokers is more valuable than AI-generated advice. 📈⁣
⁣
Financial decisions like buying a home are long term and complex. 🏡⁣
⁣
That’s why we stay in touch to see how your home loan is shaping up. 📞⁣
⁣
Try saying that about a bot. 😅⁣

📄 Could your home loan pre-approval be out of date? 📄⁣
⁣
Mortgage pre-approval can potentially be an advantageous move for home buyers. 🏡⁣
⁣
But recent rate hikes could leave your pre-approval in need of an update. ⁣
⁣
Not only does pre-approval have a limited time span, usually 3–6 months, but it can also be impacted by rising rates. ⏱️⁣
⁣
Canstar says just one 0.25% rate cut can reduce a single home buyer’s borrowing power by $12,000. ⁣
⁣
That means a couple's borrowing power could have been reduced by more than $72,000 since the three cash rate hikes earlier this year. ⚠️⁣
⁣
The last thing you need is to discover you can’t finance the place you want to buy because of higher rates. ⁣
⁣
Talk to us to bring your loan pre-approval up to date - and potentially find ways to improve your borrowing power. 👇⁣

📈 Is buying an investment property earlier the key to building wealth? 📈⁣
⁣
Regrets? One-in-three Aussie investors say they regret not investing earlier. 😬⁣
⁣
And perhaps for good reason...⁣
⁣
Finder research shows people who started investing in their 30s are 46% wealthier than those who waited until their 40s.⁣
⁣
That’s because investment returns can compound over time. 🔄⁣
⁣
Just look at property: 45% gains in the last five years alone! ⁣
⁣
And while past performance is not an indication of future performance, historically speaking, the national property market has delivered consistent long-term growth.🏡⁣
⁣
Of course, with all things investment related, please seek independent financial advice to consider all your options.⁣
⁣
But if you do decide to invest in property, consider contacting us to explore your investment loan options. 👇⁣

🏡 How much do you really need to buy a first home? 🏡⁣
⁣
Long gone are the days when you needed to save up a full 20% deposit (plus extra for other expenses!).⁣
⁣
These days, you could need a deposit of just 5%, or even 2% if you’re a single parent, to buy a first home. 💰⁣
⁣
For a $700,000 first home, a 5% deposit is $35,000.⁣
⁣
Better yet, you may also be eligible for stamp duty exemptions/concessions or first home buyer grants.⁣
⁣
Don’t forget to factor in other upfront expenses though. ⚠️⁣
⁣
Legal fees, home insurance, stamp duty, and furniture removalists can all add up. 📦⁣
⁣
Need help crunching the numbers and figuring out how much you could borrow? That's our specialty. 👇⁣

📱 Gen Zs urged to skip influencer advice 📱⁣
⁣
Here’s a worrying finding. ⁣
⁣
Money watchdog, ASIC, says two-thirds of Gen Zs (18–28) are turning to social media for financial information and help. ⁣
⁣
Trouble is, that ‘help’ isn’t always high quality or trustworthy. 😬⁣
⁣
And ‘advice’ from influencers isn’t based on personal needs. ⁣
⁣
Let’s not even get started on social media being a hunting ground for scammers. 🕵️‍♂️⁣
⁣
Buying a home is one of life’s most important financial steps - which makes getting tailored support pivotal.⁣
⁣
And that's what we can offer. 🤝⁣
