Understanding the First Homeowner Grant: A Step-by-Step Guide

04/10/2024

The First Homeowner Grant (FHOG) is a government initiative designed to assist first-time home buyers in purchasing their first property. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you navigate the process.

Check Your Eligibility

To qualify, you must be an Australian citizen or permanent resident, over 18, and purchasing your first home. Your new property must be valued under a specific threshold, which varies by state.

Research Your State’s Grant Amount

Each Australian state and territory offer different grant amounts and conditions. Ensure you research what’s available in your area, as some regions may have additional incentives.

Gather Required Documentation

Prepare necessary documents, including proof of identity, and details about the property. This documentation is vital for your application.

Contact Your THG Mortagage Advisor

Navigating the FHOG can be complex, but you don’t have to do it alone. Reach out to your THG advisor for personalised guidance through the application process and to ensure you maximise your benefits.

If you’re considering buying your first home, or if you already own a property and are looking for expert guidance, please request a 15-minute no-obligation discovery session to explore how you can achieve your financial goals for yourself, your family, or your friends.
