Hi Scotty – well done on saving $55K. Most young people dont have that much saved and end up with a 95% loan.
Assuming you are in Victoria and looking for a House/Land PPOR, you will also have a FHOG of $20K in a Melbourne metro area or $26,500 regional. There will also be great stamp duty savings.If you do go down the road of PPOR, there are are lot of turn-key packages available around $400K, just depends on where you want to live.
Getting into the market now with thorough research is fantastic whether it be investment or PPOR so good luck with your decision and future property investing.Regards,
JohnHi Echidna
How is your search for a low $200s property going?
I’m about a month away from securing a deposit for my first Investment Property up to this amount.Reading Jarrah’s post on +ve cashflow properties has motivated me to get off my bum and look for opportunities out there preferably in or around Melbourne so I can keep an eye on my first one.
Happy hunting!

Ph 0410 697 540Hi Brett
I have checked with the Bank.
Their answer is that not only must the loan be repaid in full and loan account closed and cancelled, mortgage must be discharged as well. All this within the first 12 months of policy being written, there is no pro-rata. Premium refund is 40%.
Please also note that First Option Home Loan has an exit fee of $150.Regards,
