Purchasing your first home can be both an exciting and stressful experience. Angelique and Kerry can help make the whole process easy and do all the hard work for you.
Here are a few things to think about to help get you started:
- How much deposit do you need?
- Do you have a regular savings plan?
- If you don’t have a deposit would your parents consider doing a family guarantee?
- How much can you afford?
If you aren’t sure where to begin make an appointment with Territory Loans and we can help you with a plan to purchase your first home.
