First Home Buyers – A Guide To Victoria’s First Home Buyers Grant

By Matt Hurlston

If you’re a first home buyer looking to purchase Carnegie real estate, there are a number of factors to consider before taking the plunge into the property market.

For example, there is the First Home Owner Grant (FHOG) which just underwent changes that began July 1 2013. Now, a payment of up to $10,000 is available for those looking to purchase their first home on Victoria.

The only limitation is that these grants are only available to purchase newly built homes, or to begin the construction of your own.

This could be a fantastic concession for a young family looking to purchase a new home in Carnegie or any of the surrounding suburbs. Getting in contact with a mortgage broker will help you to organise your finances and find out if you’re eligible for the FHOG.

Furthermore, getting in contact with a real estate agent from Ray White Carnegie can help you to seek out the perfect property for your needs.

The search for real estate in Carnegie can be facilitated by enlisting the services of Matthew Hurlston. His experience in the area and expertise with real estate and auctioning could be invaluable for your property hunt.
