The majority of Australians who make the leap to the property scale are managing to save the required funds without any external help, as the mortgage choice has found.
As properties prices continue to reach new maximums throughout the country, enter the market has become more difficult.
Despite this, the latest mortgage loan report of the choice of mortgages shows that approximately three quarters of the possible home houses in all age groups are managing to gather a deposit only through personal savings.
A total of 74% of respondents who are generation Z (from 18 to 28 years old) said they financed their deposit through personal savings, together with 70% of millennials (those aged 29 to 44) and 69% of generation X (ages 45-60).
The competition in the market is also solid, with data to present the choice of the mortgage that shows an elevation in the first activity of the housing buyer in the quarter of March, after the reduction of the cash rate of the Bank of the Australian Reserve Bank in February.
The number of loans increased 5.6% in the 12 months to March, while the value of loans also increased by 12.3% year after year, according to the report.
While personal savings are the main winners when it comes to deposits, help is still available for many.
Generation Z was the age group that was considered more likely to be indebted funds to save for a house deposit, with more than a quarter (29%) of the respondents who confirm this as part of their plan.

Those between 18 and 28 were also more likely to receive a family cash gift to help with a deposit (22%), ahead of millennials (16%) and generation X (8%).
Generation Z was also more likely to use the first guarantee of the house and the first Super Saver schemes at home.
