Buying property has never been harder - but what if the rules could change?In this episode of Property Now, host Michael Carbone sits down with Mark Macduffie (Downsizer), Michael Long (Lewis Land), and Blake Schulze (Colliers) to unpack how innovative deposit solutions are opening doors for first home buyers, investors, and downsizers alike.From families unlocking equity to help their kids, to young buyers purchasing with only $10K, we explore how PropTech is rewriting the property playbook. Plus, we share real case studies — like the 21-year-old who secured his first apartment and the parents who used their home equity to buy for themselves and their kids.
