Have you heard of the First Home Buyers First Home Loan Deposit Scheme?
KEY TAKE OUTS:
- The Federal Government has introduced the First Home Buyers First Home Loan Deposit Scheme which is due to commence from 1st January 2020 which will assist first home buyers with being able to borrow to purchase their first home!
From 1st January 2020, the First Home Loan Deposit Scheme will commence. This scheme is aiming to help first home buyers enter into the property market sooner by providing a Government guarantee that allows the first home buyer to purchase a home with a deposit of only 5%.
The scheme means that the additional amount required to reach a 20% deposit will be guaranteed by the Government, which ensures that the borrowers will not need to pay lender’s mortgage insurance, giving first home buyers a saving of up to $10,000.00. The support from the Government will stay in place for the life of your loan.
An income threshold will apply to this scheme. You qualify if you are a single earning up to $125,000.00 or a couple with a combined income of up to $200,000.00. You must also both be first home buyers.
There is a catch! This offer is only open to a maximum of 10,000 loans every year – so get in quick!
