Hello,
If ever there was such potential for the property market, its now! With falling interest rates, generous first home owner grants, deposit saver incentives, strong demand coming off the back of a general decline in property values, conditions appear stacked in favour of the buyer.
We begin our newsletter with details of the $14,000 upfront injection the Federal Government has made into the First Home Buyers market. When combined with existing state government grants, it marks a significant increase to a deposit for a first home.
The First Home Buyer Boost is part of a broader economic stimulus strategy, which we cover in the articles 'Spreading Economic Cheer and 'Non Banks Funding Boost.
We follow this up with an article on the pressures of lending money to family and how to protect yourself emotionally and financially.
Enjoy this newsletter and feel free to share it with family and friends.

For Love or Money
Steve Willey had run his own cafe for a number of years when he started having trouble paying the bills.
He asked his parents, Jan and Michael, to sign a mortgage over their family home to provide him with a bank overdraft. Within a year Steve's business had gone under and the bank sold the parent's home to recoup their investment.
