Buying Your First Home in Melbourne

 

Where in Melbourne can you buy your first home with a deposit as low as $21,000?

 

In this episode, Nicola and John Kefalianos explore three suburbs that could be the unexpected key to cracking the property market in 2025 — including one just 4km from the CBD. If you're a first home buyer who thought property was out of reach, this could change your perspective.

 

They break down real listings — comparing apartment versus house options — and explain the exact deposit, income and loan amounts needed to get started. From the impact of Victoria’s government guarantee scheme to bait pricing strategies, they walk you through all the essentials.

 

With clear insights, practical examples, and a positive outlook for first home buyers, Nicola and John prove it's still very possible to get on the property ladder — even in Melbourne. If you're earning over $60,000 and have saved even a modest deposit, this is a must-watch.
