Many First Time Buyers are teaming up to buy homes
Getting onto the property ladder continues to be a challenge for younger generations, as 63% of first-time buyer (FTB) mortgage completions1 are in two or more names.
The cost of buying a home is significantly more expensive than a decade ago for the average FTB, who is 32 years old. For those purchasing their first home, deposits are an average of 67% higher than 10 years ago and house prices are up 86%. Despite the living wage going up to reflect inflation and the increased cost of living, the pricSe of buying has risen disproportionately; the average salary is only 30% more than in 2013. It is therefore not surprising that FTBs need to team up to secure their first home.
