It is worth noting that if you can stump only 5% of the deposit. you will have to pay for Lenders Mortgage Insurance which is capitalized with the loan. So hypothetically if you brought a property worth 100,000 you would get a loan of 95000+ LMI which might be say 1000 dollars. So you will end up paying interest for 96K. So there is catch with the 5% deposit plans.

The prices continue to go up and will do so for sometime until there is supply opening up. right now affordable new homes can be had 30 to 40 kms away from Perth. As an alternative you may want to consider smaller lots or apartments near the city. Not too many choices unless you got money to blow.

have no clue why they put HR Managers and Advisors on the skills shortage list. The market is flooded with HR guys who have been laid off and the market is cliquey anyways!
