$25,000 Stimulus Packages to be Available with New Home Builds

5 June 2020

It is welcome news that the Australian government has announced a building stimulus package that offers a $25,000 cash grant to prospective new home builds at projects such as The Point.
This new incentive aims to provide a boost to the new home industry in light of the recent economic downturn due
to the COVID19 crisis, with specific details regarding applicant eligibility including:
● A grant of $25,000 to eligible owner-occupiers (not just first home buyers) to build a new home where the contract is entered into between today and December 31, 2020.
● Construction of a new home must be contracted to commence within three months of the contract date.
● Income thresholds – consistent with the First Home Buyers Deposit Gap Scheme (FHBDGS) – of $125,000 for singles or $200,000 for couples.
● A threshold of $750,000 for the value of the new home (including land) – again consistent with the FHBDGS.
● Revenue offices at the state and territory level to administer the scheme.
This is an exciting development for the new home industry and will help get people into their new homes quicker and easier than ever before.
 
The Point has titled land and house and land packages now available at prices below the $750,000 eligibility limit.
