Ep 3: The Home Buying Advice Our Parents Gave Us... Does It Still Work?
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Buying a home has changed dramatically over the past few decades, but the advice many Australians still receive often hasn't.
In this episode of She Finds. She Funds., Christine Stoeckert, Buyer's Agent and Director of Primary Place Buyers Agency, and Sheena, Mortgage Broker and Director of Fundli, unpack some of the most common pieces of home buying advice passed down through generations and explore whether they still make sense in today's property market.
Together, they discuss:
- Do you really need a 20% deposit?
- Should you stay loyal to your bank?
- Is buying the worst house on the best street still the best strategy?
- Should you wait for the market to fall before buying?
- Do you need a credit card to get a home loan?
- Does your first home need to be your forever home?
With practical insights from both a buyer's agent and a mortgage broker, you'll learn which advice still stands the test of time, which myths could be holding buyers back, and how today's lending rules and property market have changed the way Australians buy homes.
Whether you're a first-home buyer, upgrading, downsizing, or simply curious about today's property market, this episode is packed with practical advice to help you buy with confidence.
