Just bought your first home and wondering if refinancing is worth it? In this episode, we break down what first home buyers need to know about refinancing in 2026.
Most first home buyers start their journey by hunting for the lowest interest rate — but according to mortgage strategist Stuart Wemyss, that's one of the biggest financial mistakes you can make. In this episode, Veronica and Meighan dive deep with Stuart to unpack the part of home buying almost no one understands properly: your borrowing strategy.Stuart explains why the way you structure your loan has far more long-term impact than shaving a few points off your rate. From borrowing capacity and offset accounts to tax effectiveness and refinancing, this conversation reveals how your first loan becomes the foundation for every property decision that follows.You'll learn why the “cheapest” loan can actually cost you more later, how to preserve your flexibility for future moves, and why thinking ahead to your second and third property is just as important as buying your first. Stuart also breaks down common mistakes first home buyers make — like aggressively paying down their loan, getting stuck with the wrong lender, or failing to plan for life changes — and explains how to avoid them with a smart, forward-thinking strategy.If you want to buy well, borrow well, and set yourself up for what comes next, this is an episode you don't want to miss.Episode Highlights00:00 – Introduction to Mortgage Strategy01:20 – Understanding Borrowing Strategy02:27 – Importance of Finance Strategy07:37 – Common Mistakes by First Home Buyers12:37 – Tax Implications and Offset Accounts14:40 – Rentvesting and Its Benefits19:41 – Tax-Free Property Sale Strategy20:23 – Choosing the Right Lender21:47 – The Importance of Refinancing25:43 – Navigating Online Lenders30:10 – The Role of Mortgage Brokers31:55 – Advice for First Home Buyers33:37 – Final Thoughts and Practical TipsMentionsEpisode 28: Substations, LMI, Rentvesting, Auctions & Strata Risks: First Home Buyer Q&ACourse Details:THE First Home Buyer Course is our Step-By-Step, No BS Guide to Every Stage of The Home Buying Process – It's the next best thing to having your own buyer's agent.

When you think of first-home buyers, you might imagine young people just starting out and nowhere near the top of the salary ladder. But data shows people able to purchase that first home are earning significantly more than your average houshold. Money correspondent Susan Edmunds spoke to Lisa Owen.
The signals are everywhere if you know where to look. While most investors are distracted by headlines, we've uncovered the perfect storm of conditions brewing in Australia's property market. This week, we dissect the five macro forces that historically predict major price movements - and right now? They're all pointing in the same direction... We reveal: The RBA's coming rate cuts and the liquidity tsunami that follows Australia's worsening supply crisis (and why building approvals keep falling) The 300,000+ migration wave colliding with relaxed foreign investment rules How the First Home Buyer scheme is supercharging specific price points Why consumer confidence is finally turning positive after years of decline Plus: Why some areas could see 20-30% growth while others might see just 0-5% (and how to position yourself for the winners) This isn't speculation - it's a data-driven forecast of where capital is flowing and why the window for action is rapidly closing.

This week, Labor expanded Australia's first home guarantee to allow more buyers access to a mortgage with a reduced deposit of 5%. But the plan has many critics. Guardian Australia political editor, Tom McIlroy, speaks to the federal minister for housing and homelessness, Clare O'Neil, about why she thinks the government is pulling on the correct levers to address the housing crisis
நாட்டில் First Home Buyers - முதலாவது வீடு வாங்குபவர்களுக்கான அரசின் புதிய 5% Deposit Scheme - முற்பணத் திட்டம் அறிமுகப்படுத்தப்பட்டுள்ளது. இதுபற்றிய செய்தியின் பின்னணியினை வழங்குகிறார் மகேஸ்வரன் பிரபாகரன்.
The government's First Home Buyer Guarantee scheme will allow thousands more renters, who are struggling to save for the usual 20 per cent home deposit, the chance to enter the property market. But experts say the scheme, brought forward by three months to October, may not be as helpful as it initially sounds. They say it leaves those using the scheme financially vulnerable, and shuts out low-income earners. And for the next generation of first home buyers, it could make their journey to property ownership even harder. - Программа First Home Buyer Guarantee теперь позволит всем покупателям первого жилья приобрести дом, имея всего 5 процентов первоначального взноса, а для родителей-одиночек — всего 2 процента.

Buying your first home just got easier… the Government hopes. Its new home ownership scheme comes into effect from today, allowing first-time purchasers to secure a home with a 5% deposit, down from the standard 20%. The Government says it wants to ensure more renters own a home but the Opposition has called it "a dark day for the Australian dream". It comes as property experts warn the initiative will further drive up house prices. We’ll explain everything you need to know in today’s deep dive.

The Michael Yardney Podcast | Property Investment, Success & Money
Everyone was banking on another interest rate cut this year – but what if it never comes? In this month' Big Picture Podcast, Ken Raiss and I will unpack why the economy is running hotter than expected, and what that means for rates, housing, and your mortgage. We also explain how the Bank of Mum and Dad is helping nearly 1 in 5 first-home buyers who get financial help from their parents and what this means for housing affordability. And we forecast how Australia's rental crisis is about to get worse as investors are leaving the market in record numbers at a time when the government has no way of achieving its big housing targets. Takeaways · The economy is running hotter than expected. · First home buyers are increasingly relying on parental support. · Government incentives are making it easier for first home buyers. · Investor sentiment is declining due to regulatory uncertainty. · The property market is expected to remain strong despite challenges. · Interest rates are a key factor in the housing market dynamics. · Strategic property investment is crucial for long-term success. · Times of uncertainty can create opportunities for informed investors.

A softer housing market is good news for first-home buyers, but not for everyone. Money correspondent Susan Edmunds spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.
Starting 1 October, the federal government will expand the Home Loan Guarantee for first-time buyers in a bid to address Australia's rising housing market. The scheme will help more buyers enter the market, but could also drive up housing prices. In this podcast, we feature a financial expert, Niti Bhargava, who says that first homes don't have to be dream homes; they can be a stepping stone.
Parents and grandparents are increasingly offering financial assistance to family members with 20 per cent saying they provided help in the last quarter, so SBS Finance Editor Ricardo Gonçalves speaks with UBS Economist Stephen Wu to find out to what extent they're helping. Plus Kyle Rodda from capital.com looks through the day's sharemarket action and previews the Federal Reserve's interest rate decision.
