MELBOURNE, Australia, May 30, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The number of women entering the property market on their own is rising and non-bank lender Liberty is keen to support this growing trend.
Despite Australia's continued gender pay gap, recent CoreLogic data shows that over the past year the number of women buying on their own is a near-match to men, who have traditionally dominated the market.
The percentage of independent women buyers increased by 0.9% to 28.3% in 2020, compared to men at 29% for the same period.
Liberty's Head of Consumer Advocacy Heidi Armstrong says that with their free-thinking approach and strong diversity and inclusion values, Liberty is eager to encourage this home loan trend to continue.
"Our goal has always been to help more people get financial by providing free-thinking finance solutions to more people. As a Work180 endorsed employer, the 2021 Women in Finance Employer of Choice, and sponsors of women's sport in WBBL, AFLW and A-Leagues, we are proud to champion women in all their ventures."
Getting a home loan can feel daunting. But working with an experienced mortgage broker can help any borrower to get onto the property ladder sooner.
