What are your top tips for buying your first home?

Buying your first home is one of the most exciting and significant financial decisions of your life and in the lead up to buying your first home, you will more than likely be inundated with advice.

Here are my top three tips to help get you started;

  1. Stay within budget. Long after the excitement settles, you’ll be with this home for a long time. Make sure you haven’t stretched yourself financially and that the home fits within your budget and lifestyle.
  2. Buy as close to the city as your budget affords you. If you cant be close to the city, be close to the freeway. Perth is governed by the city and freeway, so your future-self will thank you.
  3. Do your research. Get to know the suburbs you are considering buying into. What’s planned for the future? What will impact livability and capital growth?
