Are you building or buying a new home? You may be eligible for the Queensland First Home Owners’ Grant.
The wait is over! The Queensland government has announced a boost to the First Home Owners’ Grant of $5,000 which will now be worth $20,000 towards the purchase of your new home. The $20,000 grant is only available for eligible transactions for 12 months up to and including 30 June 2017.
