Why buying power ≠ borrowing power
A lender might tell you you can borrow $700K — but if your savings only cover an 8% deposit plus stamp duty plus LMI plus solicitor and inspection costs, the actual price you can offer is $620K. We model the whole stack.
What changes per state
Stamp duty rules and first-home buyer grants vary sharply by state. The same income and savings can buy you a different price in NSW vs QLD vs VIC. Toggle the state to see how your buying power shifts.
