Thanks everyone for your feedback.
Just wondering also if the $100K was placed into another investment class, then down the track a property was planned (just say a date was planned), must the money be placed back into a savings account just before purchase to prove savings or can it just be proved by being in other investments? Will there be any…[Read more]

Hi Terryw,
Thanks for the help.
I would likely be classed as a saver as I am currently trying to save every dollar I can for my deposit.
