What grants are available for first home buyers in Canberra

There is a range of grants and initiatives from the government for new home buyers entering the market, in particular, grants for first home buyers which are available in a range of forms for every state and territory across Australia. 

Canberra home buyers looking to create the perfect property can, in some cases, take advantage of concessions and grants from the government to help towards the cost of the home. 

There are two main grants to help new home buyers purchase a home for the first time, including home buyers concessions (which have replaced the First Home Buyers Grant) and also the new Home Builder scheme. 

Home buyers concessions – Every case is unique, however, if you are a first home buyer, you can be eligible for Home buyer concession scheme in the ACT and Canberra. From 1st July 2019, the concession means that first home buyers in the ACT will pay no duty.
