    The 28% mortgage repayment rule seems really low. By the time the person can save up until they have the right level of contribution and not having to borrow as much to meet the 28% repayment rule, the same house might cost more then. I’d imagine it’s probably better to take some risk whilst being young would be worthwhile.

    • @Carlos1116

      The 28% repayment rule might work when the interest rate was much lower. It doesn't work with the current interest rate. Imagine the couple takes home 10k a month and pays 2.8k for the mortgage, which means they borrow 450k from the bank. Let's assume they put down a 20% deposit to avoid paying LMI, which means they can only buy a house under 562k.
      Nowadays, you can't even buy a relatively new 3x2 in Perth with 562k.
      Overall, It's just a theory. Most people I know paid more than 28% just to get a house when they still can.

    Tbh I think the theory you applied on mortgage percentage doesnt work after house pricing boom.
    I made more than Chris, have more than 20% deposit and my mortgage repayment still over 28%.
    We need to accept the fact these price has been raisied for so much, these percentage need to be updated and this is exactly why young generation have no hope of getting a house without any help.

    For the majority of people who don’t come from a privileged background. With better education, better life chances etc. Who are stuck in poorly equipped rentals, propping up the investors market who gloat how they are giving the poor a place to live. Are spending upwards of 60% of their salary on rent.
    For those fortunate enough to buy in the lower end market ie under $500,000 have likely bought a dog box that is way over valued and in need of repairs.
    So you can’t win either way unless you are an investor who has lifelong income and equity. Or earning over $200,000 yearly

    For couples it is feasible to live completely off 1 wage and save 100% of the other. Young Australians largely do not understand the concept of delayed pleasure. If you were trying to save for a house, why you would spend 30% of your take home income on wants is beyond me.

      Me and my partner have a rental each. We live with our parents so we can get rent money. Our combined income is 330k. It's very possible, we live frugally, my sneakers have holes but I choose not to buy new shoes until they break. It depends on how much you want to sacrifice or how much something means to you.

    In our economy we are not one, contrary to Nat'l Anthem. There is also wealth for toil, that describes the private sector. The govt sector(excl military) makes wealth from somebody elses toil, yours! The gearing in av yearly income is 1:1.60 against you/us. We are disrespected and economically enslaved revenue producers. They are (by average comparison) wealthy revenue consumers, who ate heavily heavily over represented in rental property ownership. There is 2.5 million of them and 12.5million of us, yet their buying power is vastly superior and dont forget they are revenue consumers at a most alarming & offensive rate by role/position by global parity measure. Then there is their entitlements, placing us at a greater than 50% disadvantage. Can you figure out what must happen so we can be one & rejoice?? We are funding our own economic enslavement! Ditch the Commonwealth and bring equilibrium back into this continent!
