In this short Wednesday bonus episode of the Australian Finance Podcast, hosts Gemma Mitchell and Owen Rask unpack the government’s newly expanded 5% Deposit Scheme — what it means for first home buyers, who’s eligible, and how it can help you get into the property market sooner. It’s a quick, practical breakdown of the key updates — no income caps, no property price limits, and no Lenders Mortgage Insurance — plus what to consider before jumping in.
