Buying a Property as a First Home Buyer in 2024

Starting your journey to homeownership is both an exciting milestone and a daunting undertaking, especially for first-time buyers entering the property market in 2024. As you navigate the complexities of purchasing your first home, it's essential to equip yourself with the right knowledge and resources to make informed decisions, which is where experienced mortgage brokers like the team at AAA Mortgages can provide invaluable knowledge, expertise and resources.


We’re already seeing some key considerations for first-time buyers in 2024, thanks to potential tax changes, volatile interest rates and the continued growth of the property market. It’s easy to think that it’s all doom and gloom, but our thorough understanding of the current market allows us to see the exciting opportunities for first home buyers, which is how it should be!



Market Overview:



2024 presents a dynamic landscape for first-time buyers, with evolving market conditions and shifting trends. Despite potential challenges such as rising property prices and limited inventory, opportunities are certainly there for savvy buyers that are armed with the right strategies. The key lies in understanding market dynamics, conducting thorough research, and leveraging available resources to secure your dream home at a competitive price.



Scenario 1: The Urban Dweller



Often a part of the ‘first home buyer’ conversation are young professionals eager to transition from renting to homeownership in the city centre or inner city suburbs. Despite the competitive urban market, they remain optimistic about their goal, but need practical strategies that they can implement to get there. With the guidance of a reputable independent mortgage broker, it’s important to explore a range of financing options tailored to their budget and preferences. 


If this is you, it is incredibly important to make informed decisions every step of the way, keeping focussed on the goal with the support of an experienced broker.



Scenario 2: The Suburban Seeker



Another huge part of the FHB cohort are newly married couples eager to plant roots in the suburbs and start planning for the future. As first-time buyers navigating the suburban market, these couples face a unique set of considerations, including school districts, commute times, and neighbourhood infrastructure. 


When working with the team at AAA Mortgages, FHBs can tap into a wide array of lenders and financing options, tailored to suit their unique needs and preferences - as can all of our clients.
