5% House Deposit: National's New Policy Explained

5% House Deposit: National's New Policy Explained

Episode 2554 Published 2 weeks ago
Description

National wants to let more first home buyers in with just a 5% deposit and lift the income cap to $300,000.

So, how would it actually work, and who does it help?

In this episode, Ed and Andrew break down the proposed First Home Loan changes, the numbers, and the risks.

You'll learn:

  • How a 5% deposit changes the maths
  • Who actually benefits from the higher income cap, and who it won't help
  • How many extra first home buyers could this policy create


A lower deposit gets more people in the door. But borrowing 96% of a home's value comes with real risks worth understanding first.
