First time buyers
You may be entitled to the Federal Government's First Home Owner's grant if:
- You are a permanent resident of Australia; and
- You are purchasing a property for owner occupied purposes; and
- It is the first property purchased in Australia either by yourself and/or your spouse/de facto.
Some banks/lenders will process this application form on your behalf. In such instances, we can provide you with an application form for the grant, which would need to be completed and returned together with all requested supporting documentation as set out in the application form itself.
We would submit the form to the bank/lender for process. They would require the fully completed and signed application form approximately two weeks prior to settlement in order to ensure that the funds are available at settlement. Alternatively, you can make application directly to the Office of State Revenue who will process the application and pay the funds into your nominated bank account after settlement has taken place.
