The journey towards homeownership is a significant emotional investment for all those involved. It doesn’t start and end with buying a home – it starts much earlier with a savings journey, and for many people the journey continues for up to 30 years, paying off a mortgage and potentially buying and selling different properties along the way.
To help chart the home ownership journey and explore how Australians feel throughout the experience, we have developed the Great Southern Bank No Place Like Home research report. This multi-part report will examine the confidence of buyers, how happy they are with their saving and homebuying decisions, and what they expect from their next step on the journey.
The Great Southern Bank No Place Like Home Report is a 3-part series, with online surveys to be conducted in three waves across the year. The research was conducted by The Clever Stuff , in partnership with Pureprofile, surveying 1,991 Australians aged 18-65 who are nationally representative of the Australian population by age, gender and location. The survey was conducted from 28 July to 2 August 2023.
