Have Any Questions?
For Home Buyers
01
How much deposit do I actually need?
It depends on your situation, but many first home buyers get in with a 5 to 10% deposit using government schemes like the First Home Guarantee, or a full 20% if you'd rather avoid Lenders Mortgage Insurance. These schemes are only available if you're buying to live in the property yourself, not as an investment. You may also be eligible for stamp duty concessions or the First Home Owner Grant depending on your state. We can connect you with a broker to map out exactly what's possible for you.
02
What if I'm not sure where I want to live?
That's normal, and it's part of what we help with. We work through lifestyle, commute, affordability and your future plans together, and turn that into a practical location strategy rather than a guess.
03
Isn't buying a home just about finding one I like?
Liking a property is only the start. What matters just as much is whether it's structurally sound, fairly priced, and free of legal or title issues that could cost you later. We handle that due diligence so a property you love doesn't turn into an expensive regret.
04
Will you tell me to walk away from a property?
Absolutely. Our job isn't to get you into a property as quickly as possible, it's to make sure the one you buy is actually right for you. If something doesn't stack up, we'll tell you before you commit.
For Investors
05
How much money do I need to start?
It depends on your situation, but most investors we work with start with $60K to $100K in savings. That usually covers your deposit, stamp duty, and a few upfront costs. You might need less if you're using a guarantor or have other finance options available. We can connect you with a broker to talk through what's possible. The main thing to know? You don't need a million dollar budget. We focus on affordable markets where your money goes further, so getting started is more achievable than most people realise.
06
Isn't property investing risky?
All investing carries risk, but the real question is whether you are taking the right risks for your goals. Property is just the tool, what matters is how it is used. That is why we focus on understanding your risk appetite and mapping out a strategy that aligns with your long-term outcomes. By carefully selecting markets, conducting thorough due diligence, and ensuring the numbers stack up, we minimise unnecessary risk and give you the best chance of success.
07
How do you know where to buy?
We use the SVG Property Blueprint, a data-driven system that assesses over 50 metrics to identify the best locations for investment. These metrics are weighted and scored based on the specific goals we establish with you early on. Essentially, we create a tailored filter that narrows down all suburbs using the lens of your established goals and outcomes, ensuring the selected locations best match your intended strategy.
08
What's stopping me from just doing this myself?
You can, but it takes time, expertise, and deep market knowledge. Most investors make costly mistakes by overpaying, buying in the wrong area, or overlooking key risks. We've done this before, and we know how to avoid the traps.
