First-home buyers are back—and they’re reshaping demand in Melbourne’s outer and middle suburbs. By leveraging government schemes and adapting their expectations, a new generation is finding its foothold in the market. 

• FHB inquiries are up significantly in VIC, led by the Dandenong region 

• Many are opting for units and townhouses over houses 

• Family guarantees and low-deposit options are accelerating entry 

• Suburbs with high FHB demand tend to lead early-stage growth 

PropTrack’s FHB report names Dandenong, Darebin–Moreland, and Brunswick–Coburg as VIC’s top hotspots for FHB demand—nearly double the national average. Rising inquiry signals growing entry-level pressure. 

Infinite Wealth educates first-home buyers to think like investors. We help them maximise entry without sacrificing future leverage—building a foundation for long-term financial freedom.
