Developers

Australia’s first-home ownership is at a historic low. Real estate values are increasing at a greater rate than household incomes. Making saving for a deposit increasingly more difficult. Adding to this crisis is that some developers are leaning towards alternate methods to maintain their sales, with a focus on investor sales strategies.

A simple focus on investor sales, may not be the best long-term solution. An incorrect balance (too many investors versus owner occupiers) contributes to a long term adverse-social-impact including higher (fabricated) pricing. Refer to post: Can Property Prices Be Fairer?

Your marketing and sales strategy should include owner-occupiers sales. Having multiple sales channels assist in business longevity, and …a wealthier society. AffordAssist helps in that it provides a service exclusive to first-home buyers.

The Australian real estate industry and first-home buyers are in need of custodians. Can we count you in?

Provide up to 20% of your listings to the AffordAssist program

A moral strategy

Even… One property listing per estate/project provided to the AffordAssist program will make a difference. Refer to post: Social And Affordable Housing; What Is The Moral Strategy?

A deposit solution

AffordAssist is an affordability program exclusively for first-home buyers; providing the much-needed deposit solution: First-home buyers can buy a property with no-deposit: 

  • A proprietary Deferred Deposit Agreement (DDA) may vary between 3%-25% of the property purchase price;
  • DDA is an agreement between the seller/buyer;
  • Has no application, mandate or interest charges;
  • The LVR, considering the buyer minimum cash contributions, is estimated to be less than 85%;
  • Applicable for all residential property types; and
  • It provides the seller and buyer with protection.

 

The opportunity

The estimated market for first-home buyers is around 20% of the owner-occupier market: Representing 63,000 sales per year. 300 sales per day!

Marketing and (unlimited) sales

The program offers developers the following options:

  1. Work with AffordAssist to procure first-home buyers: Fixed low flat-fee per sale. AffordAssist also works with approved professionals to maximize sales opportunities; refer TeamWork page. The platforms include:
  2. DIY: Find your first-home buyers through unlimited agents / marketing channels: Make known to these channels that you would like to sell a property with AffordAssist, using proprietary Deferred Deposit Agreement (DDA) and AffordAssist will grant use of the DDA for a ‘low flat-fee’.
