What sort of deposit do I need to buy a property?

In a perfect world, we would recommend having a 20% deposit to purchase a property. This is so you can avoid paying LMI (Lenders Mortgage Insurance). However, we know that saving for a 20% deposit can feel like climbing Mount Everest, and I don’t blame you!

The good news is you can buy a home with less than a 20% deposit. In fact, some lenders will lend you up to 95% of the purchase price of the home! You may need to pay Lender’s Mortgage Insurance, also known as LMI. LMI is insurance that covers the lender if you are no longer able to meet your home loan repayments.
