A teenage plumber has entered the property market, buying his first house aged just 19.

Jackson Mazzarella saved up $25,000 for a deposit on his modest but his own pad in Geelong's northern suburb of Norlane.

He has worked since he was just 14-years-old and gave himself a $20-a-week budget, putting everything else away.

Jackson Mazzarella was on a mission to own his own home and he has done just that aged just 19

He stayed in while his mates went to the pub or to cafes for breakfast, working towards his dream goal of being a homeowner.

'I've been saving ever since the day I started work, even before that - birthday money, Christmas money - putting everything aside and been saving for a long time,' he told A Current Affair.

'It wasn't too bad as it's something I was working towards.'

But he now says being a property owner is the 'best feeling in the world' after saving since his first job at Bunnings as a school boy.

He says he does not feel like he missed out on anything his mates did, adding: 'I feel like I've made the most out of my life so far.'

The first year apprentice plumber snapped up the property for $245,000.

It may be a humble and unassuming ex-commission house but for Jackson, the only thing he is concerned about, is that it is his own.

But the saving does not stop there for Jackson as he is now looking to get to work renovating.

He is planning a complete revamp of the whole house including new kitchen, bathroom and ripping almost everything out and starting over.

But as with many house sales, Jackson did encounter problems.

He said he felt some agents were not taking him seriously because of his age and eventually managed to secure a mortgage agreement through a lender.

But after overcoming the snags along the way he eventually secured the property.

'I called mum and dad and was like 'oh hang on, I've done this', this is going ahead. It was definitely a lot to take in,' he added.

He is bucking a trend of first-time buyers entering the market as older buyers.
