A better path to homeownership

1. Move in for just 3%

Lock in your dream home for just 3% of the purchase price, which you can fully utilize later as part of your home loan deposit.

2. Continue building up your deposit

Imagine you pay $600 in rent each week. Just add an additional 50% on top (e.g $300) as your weekly contributions. Along with your 3% Kickstarter, these contributions can be used in full later to form your deposit.

3. Switch to home loan when you're ready

Once you've built up enough deposit, you can switch to a home loan and complete your purchase using and lender of your choice. You control the timing, with the option to make the transition at any point within a 4-7 year timeframe. And If you can't get approved for a home loan, our Future Mortgage Guarantee will allow you to sell the home and recover your contributions without paying a sale commission. T&Cs apply.
