In this episode of Fast Track, Derek chats with Ella, a recent graduate on a mission to buy her first home solo within 1–2 years. She shares how moving back home, using a multi-bucket savings system, and sticking to a disciplined budget has set her up for success. She also explains her plan to live with friends as flatmates to cover her mortgage.
Derek & Ella break down the realities of renting and how to get on track for your first home, even if moving back home isn’t an option.
