The First Home Owner Grant is a one-off government payment to eligible first home buyers. The amount varies by state — for example, $10,000 in NSW and VIC, and up to $30,000 in QLD for new builds. Our brokers will confirm your eligibility and help you apply.
The First Home Guarantee (formerly First Home Loan Deposit Scheme) allows eligible first home buyers to purchase a property with as little as a 5% deposit without paying Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI). The government guarantees up to 15% of the loan. Places are limited each financial year.
Stamp duty concessions and exemptions vary by state and territory. In many states, first home buyers are exempt from stamp duty up to a certain property value and receive concessions above that threshold. Our team will advise you on the concessions applicable in your state.
While a 20% deposit avoids LMI, first home buyers can access the First Home Guarantee with just 5%. Some lenders also accept 10% deposits with LMI. Using a family member as guarantor is another option that may allow you to borrow with a smaller deposit.
