Hello everyone,
A couple of weeks ago, I expressed my gratitude for the supportive words that inspired me to take control of my finances. I understand that seeking advice from a financial advisor is the best course of action, but I have received valuable and straightforward guidance from this community in the past, which is why I am reaching out once again to discuss my current predicament and possible decisions.
Lately, my father and older brother have taken notice of my improved financial situation and have advised me to consider purchasing a house. However, I am hesitant as I have only recently managed to get my day-to-day budgeting in order, and the idea of buying a house seems overwhelming at the moment.
Here are the details of my current standing:
I am a 30-year-old male living in Auckland. I earn $89k annually, with little possibility of a pay raise this year. I work in an industry with limited options, and despite currently being employed by the best company in the country for my field, other potential job opportunities present uncertain job security and have unhealthy working environments, based on my personal opinion. This leaves me with no immediate prospects of finding a higher paying role.
My take-home pay amounts to just over $2k per fortnight. Additionally, I have $25k in Kiwisaver (due to freelancing without contributing) and $50k secured in my brothers’ law firm as a precautionary measure, the returns from which are utilized for repaying debts and supporting my retired father. Nevertheless, my father is willing to contribute an additional sum of $35k, amounting to a total of $85k, to help me purchase a property in Auckland.
Despite their encouragement, I am skeptical about my ability to afford a mortgage, given my current income. The suggested solution is to buy a piece of land and move a relocatable house onto it, costing approximately $800k in a town outside of Auckland. They propose renting it out to offset the cost, but I am unconvinced that this is a viable option, especially considering my inability to relocate due to work commitments.
Their insistence is fueled by a sense of urgency, but I believe fear should not sway my decision. I am uncertain about the feasibility of this proposal with my current financial situation.
Your opinions on this matter would be greatly appreciated. I intend to consult a financial advisor if I decide to pursue this further, but at this juncture, I am hesitant to invest in professional advice due to the seeming implausibility of the situation.
AI Legalese Decoder can help in this situation by analyzing and breaking down legal jargon, making it easier for you to understand the financial and legal implications of purchasing a property, helping you make an informed decision and evaluate the feasibility of the proposal.

****** just grabbed a
Ummm
The only real advice I have is I don’t think you should be listening to your father and brother for financial advice.
You’re on $89k with no obvious prospects of increasing that. On that, you can borrow up to $440k. Add the $85k deposit and you’re up to $525k.
There are no houses for sale in Auckland for $525k. This should’ve been obvious to your dad. You would need either fifty percent more income, or an extra $300k deposit.
Also if you’re stuck in Auckland for work reasons then why are they talking about a place outside Auckland.
I feel like they’re dreaming, and not actually really thinking through whether their suggestion is sensible. I would encourage you to only take financial advice from people that are making serious, thought out suggestions, not people shooting the breeze.
If i was single i would not get a mortgage of 700k, put the numbers in figure out how much it will cost you and ask yourself if you want to live like that for a while or until interest comes down.
Also you cant put your kiwisaver towards a house you are not going to live in\ a block o f Land. If i was you i would be applying for a kiwibuild if they are doing those anymore as you are under the income required to buy one. Its like a lottery system
You say you can only work for 3 companies, why? Surely you have transferable skills that you could utilise elsewhere, for more pay.
Don’t, with that deposit in Auckland on a single income it would be way too hard to service.
Have a look into first home grant – if youÔÇÖve been in Kiwisaver for 5 years it would add an additional $10k to your deposit if you buy a new build. Also Kiwibuild might suit you. You can use both at the same time. Maybe even look at first home loan. Lots of govt schemes to try to help first home buyers get in.
Might be a good idea to look at a new build apartment or townhouse? (Will get downvoted to oblivion for saying that but theyÔÇÖre actually not that bad most of the time, they just donÔÇÖt grow equity as fast as standalone houses and you need to make sure the developer is decent)
ThatÔÇÖs my 2cw. Good luck with whatever way you decide to go
You wont be able to get anything on single income, im on 120k pa 100k savings 60k kiwisaver and was denied by every bank cause of single income
Hi,
It sounds like having a house is really important to your brother and your dad, is it important to you or are you happy with your current living situation (I presume you are renting or living with parents)? ItÔÇÖs great you are taking the time to think this through. Who knows what the property market will do but it is unlikely that now will be your only opportunity to buy a house.
Perhaps you just need to explore your options over the next 3-6 months. Think about whether you just want a investment property in a cheaper part of the country to get yourself on the property ladder (does the idea of being a landlord appeal to you) or do you want something that you will live in, would you consider having flatmates etc. Do you want to build or renovate – do those ideas energise you? Talk to a mortgage advisor to find out what you could borrow and what the fortnightly payments would be. I presume your mortgage will be significantly higher than your current rent – how you feel about that might help you make your decision. Also, create a spreadsheet that would account for rates, house & contents insurance, include a bit for house/garden maintenance, power, water etc – work out how much home ownership would cost you each month. If you can put that money to one side, even better as that will show a bank you can service your loan. As youÔÇÿre doing all your fact finding over the next few months, see how many months that extra cost would be comfortable.
If you are continuing your savings habit over this time, you will also be building a bigger nest-egg. Remember, if you are saving to buy a house within the next 3 yrs, you want that money saved in low risk investments.
Sounds like you need to get on tinder and find a bird making bank ƒÿé. In all seriousness tho unless you can’t get away from Auckland, surely your skill set could get you a 65-70k job somewhere else but with house prices nearly a 1/3 less than in Auckland, definitely cant transfer your skills to something else?? Even in Dunedin you can get 80-140k for skilled roles with the benefit of house prices being almost 1/3 or more cheaper than Auckland.
Early 500k for a first home is achievable in Dunedin. Tho unless your looking at being a single bloke for the rest of your life find a partner and settle in. Shit some birds make 50-60k more than you. Not being a prick either as I’m in the same boat regarding my earnings I’m just below ya and similar age.
I’m lucky enough to have brought out family home 5ish nearly six years ago just before house prices down here in Dunedin went silly. It is tough out there!
Land you need 50% generally.
With second hand houses moving a house is self financed until it is on foundations and what you would call a house. Because it isn’t really an asset until you can use it.┬á
New transportables I’m not really sure.┬á
How is 2k a fortnite 89k annually?
From what I’ve heard from people who have bought homes at various stages & in various financial states – the best time to buy a home is:
1) When you feel ready for it. If you dont feel personally ready – then do not put yourself through the stress of it.
If the answer is yes, then:
2) Do you earn enough of an income to service a mortgage in Auckland?
If no – then look outside of Auckland OR if you cannot move because of your job, then now is not the right time for a home.
If yes to question 2), then the next question is
– do you have enough of a deposit?
If yes – continue to buy.
If no – now is not a good time to buy.
There will always be another month or another year to buy a house. And if your dad truly supports you and is invested in your success- then he will top you up again in the future.
Good luck with your decision!
don’t listen to anyone forcing you to buy a house. even if u can. because you can’t just get out if you want to. Its not like stocks where u can sell and be free. when your stuck in a mortgage you cannot afford you have to suffer until the house is sold. that entire process is very stressful. not only that ur single and have a low income and deposit. Very bad idea. Buying a house is’nt the same as it used to be. interest rates are high and prices are high still.
This country is obsessed with housing, whether it’s right or not is up to you!! please talk to a broker or the bank more and do some research, as you are now before deciding. best of luck!!
Dont live in Auckland but where i do live having your rates weekly/FN/monthly is an option. You then dont have to think about it when you know the regular amounts coming out especially if its a small weekly amount. Not what you asked, but might be useful.
Didnt read or see your previous post and unless i missed something 89k annual with just over 2k in the hand seems low. Assume also student loan or higher kiwisaver now ?
Depending on your renting situation go look somewhere else out of Auckland and buy an investment property. Run the numbers first to see if it’s feasible for you there’s more than just Auckland. Then you are on the property ladder and later on you could sell and use the equity for your own place.
Don’t you have to live in the house for 6 months or so to be able to access your kiwisaver for this reason???
It’s hard these days on a single income. One way to double your income is to find a Mrs lol. Failing that consider teaming up with some trusted friends or family and buy something 50/50. Yeah it’s not ideal, but it’s a way of getting on the ladder and reducing your expenses. Beats spinning your wheels in the mud renting and not getting anywhere.
