    Welcome to the forum!

    Sounds like you guys are in a good position, lots of options. I'm always a big fan of buying something to add value!

    Depending on your intended purchase price you may be able to get in now with lenders morgage insurance (LMI). If you've got a parents/family with equity in their property then parental guarantor may be an option where you could get in now and avoid LMI.

    First home deposit scheme looking like it'll come online January 1st allowing 5% deposit without LMI. I suspect this will cause a bit of a flood of buyers but it is limited to the first 10,000 applicants.
