FIRST HOME BUYERS

How do you get a deposit together?

Saving up a big chunk of money for your deposit is usually the hardest part of getting started when it comes to building your first home. There are several options available to first home buyers just like you, to support you in getting to your goal.

Summit South West works closely with our in-house finance brokers, Westgate Finance, so we can help manage a lot of the complicated stuff. Our local professionals are across the grants available to first home buyers as well as the support packages we offer our clients to help you own your home.

First Home Owner’s Grant

The First Home Owners Grant (FHOG) is a massive win for first home buyers who choose to build. The State Government gives you a one-off payment of $10,000 to help with their loan. The best part is, you don’t need to pay it back.

There are a few basic requirements you need to meet in order to be eligible and your local pro can help guide you in the right direction.
