The Deposit Clock.
How long it takes to save a deposit on a typical home, capital by capital. Set what you can put away each month — and the deposit you're aiming for — and watch the clock move.
How to read it: the wait assumes the deposit you've selected and a flat monthly saving — before price growth, interest earned, or buying costs. A 20% deposit clears lenders mortgage insurance; a 10% deposit typically attracts it, which isn't counted here. “Typical price” is the sale-weighted median across each capital's markets, and the same saving applies everywhere — so the gap you see is the price gap.
Kent will send the full deposit-time ranking behind this exact cut — every market, by capital city and rest-of-state — and a quote you can attribute, with an embargo if you need one. Kent is available for interviews and podcasts — he'll confirm a time.
