Buying your first home in South Australia? If it’s a new build or land to build on, there’s a $15,000 grant you might not know about.
The First Home Owner Grant in SA is $15,000 for new builds, off the plan, and house and land packages. There’s no price cap on the grant either.
On top of that, you pay $0 stamp duty on a new home or vacant land to build on, and there’s no price cap on that relief.
So who’s eligible? It has to be your first home in Australia, you need to be 18 or over, at least one buyer needs to be an Australian citizen or permanent resident, and you need to live in it for at least 6 months.
And you can stack them. Buy a new build and you could get the $15k grant, pay $0 stamp duty, and use the 5% Deposit Scheme so you’re not paying lenders mortgage insurance (LMI).
