Hello, we are a married couple in our late 20's with a 7 month old and we are after recommendations on how to go about buying our first house in Canberra. Do you recommend seeing a financial planner first, or go through a mortgage broker, or straight to a bank? We are thinking a mortgage broker is a good idea, any recommendations on good mortgage brokers in Canberra? Any tips on what we should do to prepare for applying/having a loan? We are looking at getting pre approval towards the end of the year, as I'm still currently on unpaid maternity leave. TIA Canberra Mums
