In this week's episode of the Weekly Finance News Wrap, Paige Estritori from Financial Services Online discusses the Australian Government's move to increase accessibility in homeownership through their expanded 5% Deposit Scheme. This decision is creating a surge in first home buyer loans, but also raises concerns about potential property price hikes. In other news, Yamaha Motor Australia is offering a 1% per annum finance deal on selected 2026 and earlier YZ models with a campaign running from April to June. Additionally, Australian motorcycle sales saw a 7.4% increase in the first quarter of 2026, a trend largely driven by increasing off-road motorcycle and scooter purchases due to rising fuel prices.
