Ideally, you should save as much as possible before buying a home. The more you save for a home loan deposit, the smaller your loan and the higher your chances of getting approved for a home loan.
Make sure your deposit savings plan also takes into account the extra costs associated with buying and moving into your new home. This can include stamp duty, conveyancing and other government and upfront costs.

The Low Deposit Fee (LDF) is a one-off amount payable by you, in connection with the low deposit being paid by you and/or the low amount of equity you have in your security property. The LDF helps us to recover some of the potential losses that we may encounter if you're unable to repay your home loan.
See the Low Deposit Fee Fact Sheet for further information.
