WHO’S BEHIND PdB?

Who am I?

You can call me “Max Mortgage” and, yes, I am a Millennial. I must be some sort of bitter, struggling 30-something that hasn’t been able to get into the property market due to my excessive consumption of avocado toast, consumer driven mindset and lack of work ethic! But that’s actually not the case. I bought my first home over 10 years ago and have watched it’s value double. I see the struggles of my generation and am fortunate I had a combination of things go right that I was able to buy my first home.

Why did I create this website?

I'm exhausted from hearing older generations brush off the struggles younger generations face when it comes to buying a home today versus 30-40 years ago. The facts and numbers are clear: it's much harder now than it was back then.

I wanted to create a straightforward website that compiles all the facts and cited sources in one place, serving as a comprehensive resource for modern housing affordability arguments.
