Other people’s discarded couches are now rivalling corporate salaries, as cash-strapped young Aussies turn hard rubbish into house deposit savings in a brutal property market.
The post Kerbside junk: Gen Z’s new path to a home deposit appeared first on realestate.com.au.

A 24-year-old man has ditched a near $90,000 career to make money in a non-conventional way, which is earning some Aussies more than $6000 in 10 days.

Between unpacking boxes and finding a good coffee machine for your new place, home security is easy to push to ‘later’. Here’s why you don’t need to.

Most people think it's one or the other. Sell first, then scramble to buy. Or buy first, then panic about selling in time.

The truth is, with the right plan, you can do both at once. Swipe to see how 👉🏻

Take a look at our recent suburb report

How to win in today's market: it takes more than luck 👇

Strategy comes before an offer:

🔹Number of active buyers circling
🔹Whether the seller wants speed or certainty
🔹How competing homes are performing
🔹Where the bargaining power sits

Certainty closes deals more than price alone:

🔹Clean contract terms
🔹A deposit that shows commitment
🔹Calculated, not emotional, pricing
🔹Timelines that work for both sides

The buyers getting ahead this season come prepared: finance sorted, budget clear, ready to act.

First National Kalgoorlie has backed the Pipeline Marathon for over a decade, and this year was no different. 🏃

Our team staffed one of the event’s aid stations, serving water and encouragement. For them, it's less about the race and more about making sure everyone else gets across the line.

We couldn't be more proud of our team showing up for their local community, year after year 💙

Great to have the team together in Albury-Wodonga last week, sharing local knowledge and supporting each other on the ground. This is what community looks like.

First National's Rural Chapter Chair Rohan Ibbs explains why members swapping practical solutions at a regional conference matters more than the speaker line-up.

Waiting for the market to hit rock bottom? 👇

Truth is, nobody can call the bottom in real time. By the time it's confirmed, the bargain's already gone.

Here's what buyers waiting on the sidelines need to consider:

🔹The market rarely plays out the way it looks on paper
🔹While prices may fall, borrowing power can shrink too, and the two often cancel each other out
🔹A smaller borrowing pool means fewer properties to choose from
🔹This hits first home buyers hardest, since they have the least room to move

So instead of guessing, watch what actually moves the needle:

🔹Days on market
🔹Auction clearance rates
🔹Vendor flexibility

These tell you more about where things are headed than any price figure.

We could not be prouder of First National Kununurra and their continued support of the Lake Argyle Swim.

This year was their biggest and best yet, and moments like this are exactly why we love what we do. When our offices back the events that matter to their communities, incredible things happen, and the world takes notice.

Is now a good time to buy or sell? Here's what's changed.

➡️Negative gearing shifts to new builds from July 2027; existing investments are grandfathered in.
➡️ The CGT discount is dropping from 50% to 30%, so sellers have until 1 July 2027 to lock in the current rate.
➡️ The First Home Guarantee remains open with no income caps, still a strong way in for first home buyers.

Market-wise, another rate hike is possible in August and listings are likely to stay tight. The takeaway? The market is shifting, not crashing.
Buying, waiting, or selling all mean something different right now.

Reach out to your local First National office to find out what it means for you.
