    I don't have enough equity to make it worth trying to get a line of credit. I think I will just have to wait it out.
    If it doesn't sell they might get a bit more negotiable with the terms and in the mean time I will work at getting a deposit.
    thanks for the prompt reply's. I didn't think there would be a way around it but thought I would ask just in case.

    meakinmaster60 said that they don't take you seriously and I have found that too.
    I moved to the sunshine coast 2yrs ago at the age of 21 and bought a house
    for 380k. when i got to the coast and went to get the keys from the agents office they looked at me and
    asked if I would like a list of available rentals. I replied no I am just here to pick up
    the keys to the house I just bought. They just assume because of your age that
    you can't do it and it is up to your to prove them wrong. also I think that of your going
    to go broke you might as well do it at a young age so you have time to recover.
    not that you plan to go broke but there is always risks ;)

    hey mate.
    I purchased my first property at the age of 18.
    It was a 4bed in Dalby qld for $70k. I am now 24
    and have since bought 4 more houses. I am no expert but
    I would suggest to try and buy a cheaper rural property because
    I know when I was 18 there was other things I wanted to do as well
    like travel overseas etc. and that a big loan will stop you from
    spending money on things.youi want to do at that age.
    Any investment into property at 18 is going to benefit you in the long
    run no matter how small it may seem. The house i bought for
     $70k sold for $245k for example.
