Hey there,
If you’re thinking about buying your first home, you’ve probably already felt a bit overwhelmed and honestly, that’s completely normal.
In a fast-paced market like Canberra, it can feel like homes are selling before you even have time to inspect them. Add in the talk about interest rates, borrowing power, auctions… it’s a lot.
But here’s the thing: when you have the right support and a clear plan, everything starts to feel a lot more manageable.
Start with the basics: What can you actually afford?
Before we start looking at homes, we need to figure out your borrowing power. That just means understanding:
-
How much you can borrow
-
What your budget looks like
-
What kind of loan options are right for you
Once we’ve got that locked in, the search becomes a lot more focused—and way less stressful.
Here’s what most people don’t realise:
Not every property shows up online. Some of the best opportunities are off-market—homes that aren’t listed publicly but are still available. And that’s where we come in. We can help you access those hidden gems and avoid the typical buyer competition.
Quick tip for this week:
It’s easy to fall for the home with the shiny new kitchen or fresh paint. But try to look deeper.
Things like location, land value, and long-term growth potential are what really matter—both for your lifestyle and for your future.
We’ve been through this ourselves. We know how confusing and uncertain it can feel. That’s exactly why we do what we do—so buyers like you can feel informed, confident, and supported from start to finish.
If you're ready to take that first step, we’d love to chat. No pressure, just a real conversation about your goals and how we can help.
