What Support Is Available for First Home Buyers in NSW?


New South Wales offers genuine help for first home buyers, and knowing what you qualify for can make a real difference to your deposit and your budget.

The First Home Owner Grant gives eligible buyers $10,000 towards a newly built home valued up to $600,000. If you are buying or building new, this grant can go straight towards your costs.

The First Home Buyers Assistance Scheme can also reduce or remove transfer duty (stamp duty). Eligible first home buyers pay no transfer duty on a home valued up to $800,000, and a reduced rate on homes valued between $800,000 and $1,000,000.

Eligibility depends on your circumstances, the property, and current government rules, which can change. We will help you work out what you may be able to claim, so nothing is left on the table.
