| The Federal Government has established the First Home Owner Grant Scheme to assist in offsetting the effect of the Goods and Services Tax (GST) on the purchase or construction of a home by a first home buyer. Eligible applicants will be entitled to a maximum $7,000 grant at settlement or on completion of their home, payable into a nominated account. The home must be a fixed dwelling that meets the local planning standards. The grant will not be available for renovations or for the purchase of vacant land. Payment of the grant is not means tested and there is no upper limit on the value of the property being purchased. However, to receive the mortgage grant, each applicant must comply with the eligibility criteria detailed below. |
