Mortgage wars: why the banks are offering sweeter deals

The major banks don’t usually offer big deals to first home buyers, usually because beggars can’t be choosers. But that's changing.

How much equity do you need in your home to be able to do this, what are the traps to be aware of and how can you maximise returns? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
