  • Qualify for a low interest rate.

 

Did you know that around 60% of first home buyers receive some sort of help from their parents?

If they’re not in a position to provide a guarantee, your mum and dad can gift you the money for the deposit instead.

​

Will I pay a higher interest rate by using a guarantor?

 

Actually, you’ll probably get a rate discount!

This is because the additional security offered by your parents actually lowers your risk moreso than someone borrowing 95% of the property value.

If your income, job and credit history are all stable then you’re a highly sought-after borrower.

Banks are increasingly recognising the value of first home buyers.

You may qualify for discounted interest rates. and waivers on loan approval, application and valuation fees.


​

Why are no deposit home loans such a popular choice?

 

A no deposit loan will allow you to borrow up to 100% of the purchase price.

The main type of no deposit loan is known as a guarantor loan with gifted deposit home loans coming a close second.

They are still available with all the normal loan benefits such as 100% offset, fixed interest rates and interest only periods.

Many people are eligible for discounted professional package interest rates, basic loan packages and application fee waivers as well!

 

Can you use the First Home Owners Grant as a deposit?

​

Yes you can however, it isn’t normally enough on its own.​

​

  • If you’re building a home then your grant isn’t available until construction commences.

  • In total, you’ll typically need 5% to 10% of the purchase price, including the FHOG.

  • If you have a guarantor then you don’t need any savings whatsoever.

 

How much is the First Home Owners Grant?

 

The First Home Owners Grant (FHOG) is a national scheme funded by the states and territories of Australia and administered under their own legislation.

A one-off grant of between $5,000 all the way up to $20,000 is available depending on your state and the property price.

Note that some states have additional or separate grants.

You can apply for the FHOG through your bank when you apply for your loan. The funds will be advanced with your loan at settlement. If you’re building a home then you receive the grant when you apply for your first construction drawdown.

​

Note - lenders criteria applies to all loans.
