Dear All
The question often arises: Why would a property seller agree to an AffordAssist Deferred Deposit Property Sale?
It’s a fair question — and one that makes sense, because AffordAssist represents a new way to think about how we buy and sell property. Below, we share our perspective, real-world experience, and how this approach can lead to personal financial gain.
Perspective
Selling a property isn’t always just about the numbers. It can also be emotional — filled with memories, milestones, and meaning.
Beyond the financials lies something deeper: Emotional Value.
Property sellers and developers often make decisions based on more than price alone. Sometimes it’s about the buyer’s attitude, appreciation, or sense of purpose. For many, it’s also about cooperation — a willingness to help the next owner and contribute to our shared social fabric. Click to read about this perspective
Experience — 8 Years On
AffordAssist’s interest-free deferred deposit solution taps into the equity of willing property sellers to create a combined home loan and deposit pathway.
Over the past eight years, we’ve seen that Australians genuinely care about the next generation. Many sellers not only have the equity — but also the reason — to consider this kind of offer.
With respectful communication and the right education, we continue to see strong openness to AffordAssist proposals.
In our experience, around ‘1-in-?’ property offers are accepted through AffordAssist — and the variable is effort.
Working with an approved Buyer’s Agent provides buyers with the best possible chance of success. Click to read more Australian property sellers DO CARE about the Next Generation
Personal Financial Gain
Is it worth the effort? Let’s look at a real-life example:
- Reduce the loan amount by 10% on an $800,000 purchase = $80,000
- Typical repayments to a lender (≈3×) = $240,000
- With AffordAssist – interest-free = $80,000
✅ You save $160,000
