Real Estate View highlights Head Start Homes homeownership pathways
We invite you to check out a recent article by Jack Needham posted on the Real Estate View highlighting the challenges to homeownership and how our practical homeownership pathways are helping Australian families.
In this article, our Founder and Directing Manager, Stephen Woodlands, speaks to Real Estate View about the influx of Australian families in social housing, and the many challenges Australians families experience that prevent them from owning their own homes.
“People on lower incomes and particularly our clients, either first nations, single mums, people living in social housing, it’s even harder for them to save for a deposit and the main reason for that is you actually get penalised for doing well in social housing”
Stephen states how this could discourage families in social housing who are seeking further employment opportunities.
“Scraping together a deposit is one of the biggest challenges to getting a foot on the property ladder, but when working extra hours or going for that job promotion could put your current housing at risk, it’s even harder.”
The article goes into detail about our unique model that helps to bridge this gap and help Australians realise their homeownership dreams.
