In today’s market, ideally saving 20% for a mortgage down payment is a great target—it helps avoid lender’s mortgage insurance and reduces monthly repayments. However, many buyers successfully enter the market with as little as 5–10% saved, especially with first-home buyer incentives and grants available. With smart budgeting, consistent saving, and the right support, homeownership is more achievable now than ever before.
