There's a few different ways to get on the property ladder for the first time. Each deserves some careful consideration. Here's the three big ones Paris is thinking through.
We're asking these questions alongside this:
1️⃣ What do you want your life to look like in three years time?
2️⃣ Do you want the absolute best financial outcome?
3️⃣ Or are you looking for the best ‘life outcome’?
They aren’t always the same thing.
This is your Epic Start - think about it before you set your goals.


Note: these are example scenarios but actual borrowing and eligibility varies and depends very much on YOUR income, expenses and lender assessments - and all concessions vary across states
