The chances are that saving for a home deposit will probably take you longer than any previous thing you have ever saved for. In order to save a deposit sooner you have to be prudent with your expenditure and save as much of your hard earn income as you can.

To help make saving for a deposit easier and quicker for all Australians we offer all aspiring first home buyers a quick & easy to use DIY Budget Planner so you can work out where your hard earned money is going and plan to save more for your future.

Could you afford to continue to repay your home loan if you were unable to work due to sickness or injury? Income Protection insurance provides a replacement income when you (the insured) are unable to work because of injury or illness. This can help you cover lifestyle expenses such as mortgage repayments while you recover and get back to a position where you are able to work. When it comes to Income Protection Insurance you can usually insure around 75% of your pre-tax income. There is much to consider though when it comes to different products, different features and your personal circumstances. Our friends at Life Insurance Direct are experienced at Income Protection insurance and can help you design your very own Income Protection Insurance policy at no cost to you. Life Insurance Direct can also help you with Life, TPD and Income Protection insurance.
