What’s the first step in purchasing a new home? Most people probably want to look at floor designs and walk through display homes, but understanding your borrowing capacity allows you to look in the right spot.
If you’re in the early stages of saving for a home deposit, looking at online bank calculators is a great starting point. These calculators are just a very basic estimate, but can help get you motivated! They only take a maximum of a few minutes and will tell you how much you can borrow.
