What Help Is On Offer for SA First Home Buyers


South Australia is a genuinely good place to buy your first home, and the assistance available can take real pressure off the amount you need saved.

The First Home Owner Grant pays eligible buyers $15,000 towards a new home. If you are buying or building something brand new, that is money working directly in your favour.

South Australia has also introduced generous stamp duty relief for eligible first home buyers purchasing or building a new home, which can remove one of the largest upfront costs entirely.

What you qualify for depends on your circumstances, the property and the current rules, which do change over time. We will work through the detail with you so nothing you are entitled to gets missed.

FAQ

First Home Buyer Questions, Answered.

South Australia offers eligible first home buyers a $15,000 grant towards a new home. Because it is aimed at new builds rather than established homes, whether you qualify comes down to the type of property you buy. We will confirm your eligibility during your free consultation.

Often much less, and in many cases nothing. South Australia has introduced stamp duty relief for eligible first home buyers purchasing or building a new home, which can remove a significant upfront cost. Because the rules can change, we will confirm exactly how they apply to your purchase.

Not necessarily. Low deposit loans, the first home grant and family guarantee options can all help you buy with less saved, and Lenders Mortgage Insurance can bridge the gap. We will lay out the choices and trade-offs so the decision stays yours.

A single bank only offers its own products, whereas we compare over 50 lenders to find one that suits a first home buyer. We also carry the workload, from paperwork to liaising with the lender, and it costs you nothing to get started.
