What do you think is the biggest impediment for first time buyers, getting a deposit big enough or being able to get a mortgage?

Property prices being too high I think is the biggest problem - they've gone up far in excess of earnings and needs to see a correction.

Yes house prices are a little to high. At the moment the average first time buyer on a 30K salary can borrow 100K. the average flat where I live is 180K. that's an 80K deposit.

It's a very stressful and frustrating time for first time buyers at the moment. We've seen historically affordable mortgages come at the same time as unreasonably large deposit requirements.

It'll be interesting to see where we're at in a year's time.
