Still Renting in Brisbane?

Your rent is building
someone else's
wealth. Not yours.

The median Brisbane house rent is $670 per week — that is over $34,840 a year going to a landlord with nothing to show for it. Many renters are closer to buying their own home than they realise.

Why renters are closer than they think

You may already be ready to buy.

Many Brisbane renters do not realise how much government support is available — or that their consistent rental payments demonstrate the financial discipline lenders look for.

01
Smaller deposits may be possible
Government guarantee schemes allow eligible buyers to purchase with a smaller deposit without Lenders Mortgage Insurance. Subject to eligibility and lender assessment.
02
QLD government support
First home buyers in Queensland may be entitled to grants and stamp duty concessions. Claudia assesses your eligibility — at lender-paid service.
03
Your rental history counts
Consistent rental payments over 12+ months demonstrates the financial discipline lenders value. Some lenders treat this favourably.
04
Build equity instead
Every mortgage repayment builds equity in your own asset. Every rent payment builds equity in someone else's.
