First Home Buyer Guide

At G&C Mutual Bank, we have over 60 years' experience in helping Australians purchase their own home. We have a proud history of providing flexible, competitively priced and award-winning products for first home buyers, including our First Home Buyer Loan and Get Ahead Start family guarantor option. We’re also working alongside the Australian Government on the Home Guarantee Scheme to help even more first home buyers realise their dream of home ownership.

We understand that buying a home of your own is one of the most significant financial decisions you will ever make, and the home buying process can seem daunting for first home buyers. That's why we developed this guide, Buying your first home, to help you get started on your home ownership journey. It sets out home buying in three phases and defines key terms to eliminate confusing jargon. Packed full of information to help those looking to break into the housing market, this useful guide includes:

• Options to help with your deposit
• Cost considerations of buying a home
• How to determine your borrowing power
• Tips to evaluate the property market
• The different methods to purchase property
• Explanation of home loan features and interest rate types
• Overview of the purchase process
