In this episode, mortgage expert Alissa Childs joins us to unpack the real pathways young doctors can use to get onto the property ladder sooner. Many early career doctors feel priced out or overwhelmed by lending rules, not realising they may be eligible for tens of thousands of dollars in incentives, LMI waivers and tax saving strategies that can fast track their first purchase. Alissa shares practical examples from the front lines, including how one client saved $40,000 simply through a scheme change that most buyers never hear about until it is too late.

We break down the major options available to first time buyers, including the 5 percent deposit scheme, doctor specific LMI waivers, parental guarantees, and the First Home Super Saver strategy. Alissa clarifies how each works, the traps to avoid, and why forward planning matters, particularly for interns and registrars who want to buy earlier without needing a huge cash deposit. We also explore the lesser known differences between federal incentives and state based stamp duty or grant rules, and how choosing the right structure can affect borrowing capacity, growth potential and long term portfolio planning.

Whether you want to buy your first home to live in, start with an investment, or simply understand how to position yourself over the next twelve to twenty four months, this episode offers clear, evidence based guidance to help doctors make confident decisions. It is a practical roadmap for anyone who wants to move from feeling stuck to knowing exactly what steps will put them in the best position to buy.
