Still think you need a massive deposit sitting in your savings account to buy your first home? ๐๐ก
The First Home Super Saver Scheme (FHSSS) lets eligible first-home buyers use their super to help save for a deposit, and honestly, not enough people know about it.
Hereโs the simple version ๐
โจ Make extra voluntary contributions into your super
โจ Save up to $15K per year and $50K total
โจ Potentially benefit from lower tax rates while saving
โจ Withdraw those contributions + earnings later to help buy your first home
Yepโฆ couples can both use it too. ๐
BUT before you jump in, itโs important to know:
โ if youโre eligible
โ how withdrawals work
โ whether your super fund supports the scheme
โ and the timing rules before settlement
Itโs not for everyone, but for some buyers, it can be a smart way to boost a deposit sooner.
