First Home Owners Grant WA

The First Home Owner Grant (FHOG) is a great government incentive for buyers in Perth, WA. Thanks to this scheme, first home buyers can receive a $10,000 incentive to purchase their new home!

That can be extremely helpful since it frees up funds for other expenses like legal fees and home deposit.

This First Home Owner Grant scheme is available in all states including Western Australia. It was introduced on 1st July 2000 as a national scheme to encourage home ownership across the country.

It is funded by the various states and territories and administered under their own legislation. Therefore, the eligibility requirements for first home buyers may vary according to state.

Are You Eligible For The First Home Owner Grant?

Thinking of buying a house? Then the First Home Owner Grant can give you a great head start wine it comes to building a new home

If you're an eligible first home owner in Perth, these grants give you a one-off payment of $10,000 to buy or build a new residential property for use as your principal home. So if you’re planning on buying a home of your own, be sure to take advantage of this incentive!

Not sure if you qualify for a first home ownership grant? Let’s take a look at the eligibility requirements:

  • To qualify for the first home owner grant least one applicant buying the house must be an Australian citizen or a permanent residence at the time of application. That means if you’re joint purchasing the house with your partner, at least one of you must satisfy this requirement.
  • You must be 18 years or older. However, if you’re under 18 in WA, you can apply for the first home owner grant by getting an exemption from the age requirement. To get exempted, you have to submit an application with the Commissioner of State Revenue.
  • You (the applicant) and your partner cannot have owned a house anywhere in Australia before 1st July 2000. You also cannot have owned a house in Australia on or after 1st July 2000 and occupied it as a place of residence.
  • You and your partner cannot have previously received the grant or first home owner rate of duty from any state or territory in Australia. This rate of duty refers to the special rate that first home owners are qualified to get, and it’s only available if you're purchasing a home for the first time.
  • Lastly, you have to occupy the home as your principal place of residence for a continuous period of 6 months or more, and within 12 months of completion of the FHOG transaction.

You’re eligible for the first home owner grant when you buy a house south of the 26th parallel line (including all of the Perth metropolitan area) with a purchase price of up to $750,000. For houses north of the 26th parallel the price can be up to $1 million.

Besides the one-off incentive, first home owners can also enjoy a waiver of the stamp duty for vacant land with a value up to $300,000, and a total limit of $750,000 for a house and land package.
