First-Home Buyer Guidance for Melbourne and Surrounding Suburbs

Buying a first home in Melbourne usually begins with three practical questions: how much you may be able to borrow, how much cash you need to complete the purchase, and whether the property you are considering is acceptable to the lender. These questions should be reviewed before relying on an online calculator or making an unconditional offer.

Melbourne first-home buyers may be comparing established houses in the north, newer estates in the west and south-east, or apartments closer to the city. Each option can create different valuation, deposit, strata, construction and lender-policy considerations.

SKR Global Finance helps eligible buyers review income, liabilities, living expenses, deposit evidence, visa or residency position, credit limits, property type and lender policy before an application is submitted.

Common First-Home Buyer Questions in Melbourne

Can overtime, allowances, casual income or multiple jobs be used?

Potentially. Lenders apply different history and evidence requirements for overtime, weekend penalties, shift allowances, casual work and second-job income. A lender comparison should consider how each income type is assessed.

Can parents or family provide a gifted deposit?

Potentially. A lender may request a gift declaration, evidence of transfer and confirmation that the funds do not need to be repaid.

Can savings transferred from Nepal form part of the deposit?

Potentially. Keep a clear paper trail showing the source, ownership and transfer of funds. Additional verification may be required.

Can temporary residents or visa holders buy a first home?

Potentially, but lender policy, deposit requirements and separate legal or foreign-investment rules may apply. Finance eligibility and legal purchase eligibility are different questions.

Buying Property in Melbourne

Checks to Complete Before Making an Offer or Signing a Contract

Contract and legal review

Use an appropriately qualified conveyancer or solicitor to review the contract, deadlines, title and property-specific risks.

Valuation risk

High-density buildings can contain many similar listings. Contract price and lender valuation may not always be identical.

Employment and transport access

Consider train, tram and bus access, road connections, parking and your actual commute to Melbourne CBD or the employment precincts relevant to your household.

Established houses and townhouses

Review condition, easements, planning controls, renovation history, drainage and independent inspection findings.

Investment property cash flow

Test rental income assumptions against interest, strata, council, insurance, vacancy and maintenance costs.

Contract and legal review

Use an appropriately qualified conveyancer or solicitor before signing or bidding, especially for unconditional purchases.
