You Could Be Eligible For The First Home Owner’s Grant

To help first home buyers achieve their goal of owning their own home, the Victorian State Government offers a First Home Owner’s Grant (FHOG). The FHOG is valued at $10,000 for residences in metropolitan areas and $20,000 in country or regional areas. As Goldenvue is in a regional area, you could be eligible for $20,000 to put towards your first home, such as conveyancing, stamp duty, or other fees. The FHOG is not subject to tax or additional levies.

Contact the State Revenue Office to learn if you are eligible.

What To Expect Buying Your First Home

Buying your first home usually means purchasing the largest asset of your life – so far. Preparing yourself for what lies ahead will make the process less intimidating and give you confidence to take the next steps. Here are some tips from our expert property team to help you through.

Ensure you are eligible for a home loan. Contact lenders or brokers to help you assess your situation. Don’t over-extend yourself.
Don’t underestimate additional costs of buying a home, such as stamp duty and conveyancing. For a $750,000 home, the Victorian Revenue Office will ask for up to $40,000.
Having a sizeable deposit can actually help keep costs down. A 20% deposit means avoiding paying Lenders’ Mortgage Insurance. Using the $750,000 example, having only $50,000 deposit may cost you an additional $29-30,000 in LMI.
Lawyers, bank fees, council rates, and other fees may also contribute to your final cost.
If you are unsure about any part of the process, there is an expert who can help.
If you have your heart set on Goldenvue, a quick decision is a good decision. Lots are selling fast – don’t miss out on your golden opportunity to live just a little bit better!

Four Months To Moving In: The Build/Buy Journey

Did you know the average journey from searching for a plot of land to purchase happens over four months? When seeking established properties, your search could lead to many dead ends and lots of weekends filled with frustration. Some may abandon their plans to buy a home entirely.

The settlement process for a new construction does take longer than buying a home already built. However, you will save months – perhaps years – of your time by dropping out of the “race” to find the “perfect home” when you can build it yourself right here among the history and tranquillity of Goldenvue.
