The First Home Owner Grant
The First Home Owner Grant (the grant) scheme was established to encourage and assist home ownership and to offset the effect of the GST on home ownership.
To receive the grant, each applicant must comply with the eligibility criteria. Criteria for qualifying applicants and properties vary in each State and Territory.
The SRO administers the grant with the help of a number of banks and lending institutions that are approved agents.
