Market Insights
First home buyers represent 32% of Sydney apartment sales, with government incentives making sub-$800,000 apartments 15-20% cheaper than equivalent house purchases after stamp duty savings.
The FHLDS (5% deposit scheme) has opened opportunities for FHBs to enter the market 2-3 years earlier than traditional 20% deposit requirements, particularly in growth suburbs.
Inner-ring apartments within 8km of CBD offer FHBs strong capital growth (7-10% p.a.) while maintaining rental income optionality if owners need to relocate for work.
