Get in the property market asap. Aint going to get any cheaper in the future.
Find yourself a secure job and go to Mortgage Choice to discuss your options. If you want a $300-$400k property you would need about $30,000 - $50,000 deposit upfront. You can either wait to save another $25k, or ask parents to "gift" you the remaining amount for deposit. By law gift means no payback and hence banks wont consider it as an additional loan to the homeloan. Just pay back your parents ontop of the loan repayment
