Your curliest questions, answered.
You're eligible with OwnHome if you're buying in OwnHome's service area, have enough savings to cover your upfront payments plus government fees and taxes, are a professional with a steady income, and you're buying an established property (not off-the-plan or vacant land).
As part of your application we'll also request standard financial and personal information in order to make an assessment.
Our mission is to help millions of Australians become homeowners, which means we need to rethink the pathway to homeownership. With OwnHome, you don’t need to save thousands of dollars upfront or have a helping hand from the Bank of Mum and Dad.
How do we do it?
Well, behind the scenes, we’re supported by investors who share in the mission and a technology team that have automated much of the manual work—so we’re set up to keep costs low.
The bottom line? Over short time frames, house valuations have always gone up and down—sometimes quite a lot. Over long time frames in Australia, say 10 or 20 years, house valuations have gone up consistently. The Australian national growth rate for the past 30 years is 5.4%p.a. according to CoreLogic.
So, even in markets where house prices stay flat or fall, looking over the long run, there can also be a cost of doing nothing.
And while we don’t have a crystal ball, we’re confident that in future, more Aussies than ever before will need a smart and modern pathway to homeownership.
We’re an Aussie company founded in sunny Sydney that works across Australia. We’re well funded by the might of CBA’s X15 Ventures, Square Peg and many others.
We’re led by a trusted leadership team who all have a track record of delivering successful and innovative customer solutions.
We partner with the most trusted banks, non-bank lenders and mortgage specialists in Australia. But don’t just take our word for it. Our customers have given us the highest rating of Excellent on Trustpilot. See why people love OwnHome for yourself.
