How much can I borrow?

This depends on your income and how much you can afford to repay. You can use our Wisebuy borrowing power calculator to give you an idea of how much you may be able to borrow. How much deposit do I need? Different lenders will require different minimum deposits. Some will require a deposit of 20% of the value of the home you want to buy. Others will be prepared to lend with as little as 5% deposit. But the more deposit you have, the more your borrowing power will increase. You can use our Wisebuy savings calculator to help you work out how much deposit you can save.

Can I Get Help With My Deposit?

Yes, both the federal and state governments have incentives to help first home buyers with their deposits. They include: the First Home Owner Grant. This is a grant of $10,000 for eligible NSW first home buyers. the First Home Loan Deposit Scheme This is a federal government guarantee to help you avoid the cost of lenders’ mortgage insurance.
