About this Event
The Reserve Bank has lifted the cash rate four times in 2026, to 4.60%, the highest since 2011. Headline inflation jumped to 4.0% in August. And a 20% deposit on a median Sydney house is now around $346,000.
If you're renting and saving, the traditional path of "save 20%, buy where you live, pay it off over 30 years" may never arrive. In one evening we'll show you a different path: how people are getting into property with less than $30K, rent-vesting through this exact climate, and using that first purchase to buy their own home sooner.
Agenda for the evening:
✅ How to get into the property market with a small deposit. What's possible with just $30K, and how lenders look at it.
✅ Rent-vesting in a high-inflation, high-rate climate. Why this strategy can hold up when rates are rising, and how to keep the holding costs manageable.
✅ Buying your home sooner, without a 30-year mortgage. The path from your first investment to the home you actually want to live in.
✅ Real case studies. People who used this exact strategy: what they bought, what it cost, and their results.
✅ The suburbs and properties this budget can buy. The types of areas and properties that fit a $30K deposit, and what to look for in each.
✅ A live Q+A. Bruce and Danny take your questions. Bring your situation.
