Your local Mortgage Broker Nunawading & Blackburn team

The Mortgage Broker Nunawading team are focused on finding the best outcome for you - and not the lender. We have over 35 leading lenders on our panel and thousands of home loans. We'll narrow down your choices to a selection of handpicked home loans that will suit you best.

Amount: We look at what you could borrow and which lender is most likely to approve your application.
Policy: We go through policies lender by lender to find a great lender who fits you and not the other way around.
Best rate & features: We focus on which lenders have a great rate at the moment, and who will give you the best features on your new loan.
Speed: We look at turnaround times and when you want to have pre-approval for your loan.
Our home loan service is free because your lender pays a commission when your loan settles.

Geoff and the team at Mortgage Choice Camberwell have been extremely helpful in purchasing our first house. They have made the whole process smooth and efficient as well as providing plenty of advice. They made sure we got a really great interest rate and always responded promptly to any questions we had. We can't recommend them highly enough!

As a potential first home owner, Matt and the team were fantastic at breaking everything down and explaining the buying process for someone who is new to it all. Can’t thank them enough for all the work they put in and effort to get the best deal on my loan. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to enter the market!

As a first home buyer, I wasn't sure whether to seek the assistance of a mortgage broker or go about finding a loan by myself. However, I am so glad that I decided to work with Mortgage Choice Whitehouse. Not only did they perform a comprehensive assessment to make sure they found a product that would suit me, but were always readily available and willing to answer any questions throughout the entire journey. A special thanks to Matt Pyers for all his assistance!

Extra Information

Home Buyer Concession Scheme

From 1 July 2019, the FHOG ACT has been replaced with exemptions on stamp duty. The stamp duty exemption is applicable to all properties in ACT, including vacant residential land and both new and established homes at any price. As this is still to aid first home buyers, to be eligible at least one buyer must live in the home for at least 12 months, starting within 12 months of settlement or completion of construction.

To be eligible, first homeowners in the ACT must have a household income below $160,000. This number increases up to $176,650 depending on the number of children you may have.

Stamp duty concessions in NSW

From 1 August 2020, the NSW government has announced that stamp duty will not be applicable to first home buyers for properties valued up to $800,000 and vacant land valued up to $400,000. This stamp duty exemption will be in place for 12 months to 31 July 2021, in which the stamp duty exemptions will revert back to $650,000 for homes and $350,000 for land.

Additionally, a concessional rate of duty will apply to homes valued more than $800,000 but less than $1,000,000 and vacant blocks of land valued more than $400,000 and less than $500,000

How much is the First Home Owners Grant NSW?

The FHOG in NSW is worth $10,000 however conditions apply. To be eligible, your first home must have a total value below $600,000, and be either newly constructed or ‘substantially renovated’. A home is substantially renovated when most or all of the original house was removed or replaced, and it’s the first time the place has been sold, and lived in, after the renovations were completed.

If you plan to build a new home from scratch, you can still be eligible for the FHOG in NSW as long as your land plus the home you build have a combined value of less than $750,000.

How much is the First Home Owners Grant in the NT?

The First Home Owner Grant in NT is $10,000. Your income and the price of your home don’t affect the FHOG NT, and the grant is available if you buy or build a new house, apartment, duplex or townhouse.

As of 30 June 2021, there are currently no stamp duty concessions for first home buyers in NT.

Previously the Territory’s First Home Owner Discount was in place from 8 February 2019 to 30 June 2021. It let you save up to a maximum of $18,601 on the cost of stamp duty. The savings were available whether you purchased a new or established home as long as the home was valued under $650,000.

How much is the First Home Owners Grant QLD?

As a first home buyer in Queensland you could be entitled to the $30,000 First Home Owner Grant. To be eligible, you need to buy a brand new home or build a home from scratch with the total value (including the land) below $750,000. You may also be eligible if you buy off the plan or an established home that’s been substantially renovated.

As a guide, substantial renovations include replacing or altering foundations or replacing or altering floors. Cosmetic work such as painting the walls or sanding floors doesn’t add up to a substantial renovation when it comes to the FHOG in QLD.

Stamp duty concessions

If you’re buying vacant land to build your first home, you pay zero stamp duty as long as you pay $250,000 or less for your block. Concessions are available for vacant land valued above $250,000 and up to $400,000. Whereas if your first home is valued up to $500,000, you pay zero stamp duty. That’s a saving of $7,175 which is the maximum stamp duty rebate available to first home buyers in QLD.

Additionally, savings on stamp duty may still be available if you pay between $500,000 and $550,000 for your first home. As a guide, if your first home is worth $530,000, you pay stamp duty of $6,300 a saving of $3,500. These savings cut out altogether if your first home costs $550,000 or more.
