Make your dream home a reality with easy, cash-free deposit bonds
Are you looking to secure your dream home without a large upfront cash deposit? Deposit bonds could be the perfect solution!
Here at Mortgage Choice, we make deposit bonds easy to understand, helping you feel confident and stress-free as you move toward owning a home. From start to finish, we’re here to guide you and make sure it works smoothly for your needs.
What are deposit bonds and how do they work?
A deposit bond acts as a temporary cash substitute for the initial deposit required when buying property. Essentially, it’s a guarantee that assures the seller you’ll have the deposit funds ready at settlement. This flexibility allows you to secure a property while keeping your cash available for other priorities.
Deposit bonds cover 5-10% of the property’s purchase price and are mostly popular in New South Wales for their convenience and accessibility.
4 Smart Reasons to Use a Deposit Bond
Deposit bonds offer several benefits for property buyers, including:
- Keep your cash flow flexible
Free up your finances with a deposit bond instead of locking up cash. This is especially useful if your funds are tied up in your current home and you’re not ready to sell just yet. A deposit bond covers your deposit on your new property, so you can move forward with your plans without waiting to sell first.
- Avoid cash tie-ups on off-the-plan purchases
Thinking about buying off the plan? A deposit bond can help you avoid tying up your cash for months, or even years, while you wait for construction to finish. This way, your savings stay intact and accessible until settlement. It’s a great choice for both investors and future homeowners who want to keep their cash flow open until they’re ready to move in.
- Bid confidently at auctions
Deposit bonds let you stay flexible at auctions. Even with a fixed bond amount, you can leave the vendor and property details open—ready to fill in if you win. This flexibility becomes handy if you’re attending multiple auctions.
- Enjoy a fast and easy process
With a trusted deposit bond expert guiding you, the application process becomes simpler, making sure your bond is issued smoothly and on time.
Is a Deposit Bond Right for You?
Wondering if a deposit bond is the right choice for you?
It’s an option that works great for:
- Investors waiting for the release of their funds from other assets or who want to pay for the property in full at settlement.
- Property buyers who plan to use the proceeds of their existing property but need cash flow flexibility until the sale of their property is complete
Before proceeding, just make sure to check the vendor will accept a deposit bond, and be aware, deposit bonds do come with a cost.
