First Home Buyers, Housing Affordability & Guarantors

Most young borrowers aren't aware their family members, usually their parents, can act as guarantors for a home loan.This is an option that allows family members to provide a guarantee in support of a borrower's home loan application by using equity in their own property as security for the loan. So, they can assist other family members in maximising the amount they can borrow by bridging the deposit and upfront expenses gap, and hence avoid lenders mortgage insurance (LMI).

The guarantor situation is most likely to occur when a borrower's savings history, and/or deposit doesn't quite stretch to meet lenders' requirements for a home loan. It is targeted at those with good ability to repay a home or investment property loan but who lack the sufficient equity to secure the additional funds they need to meet upfront loan costs and associated expenses.

How can I use the equity I've built up in my home?

As you pay off your home loan your debt decreases and over the years the value of your property may increase. If you find yourself in this situation you may have equity which you can draw upon for a range of reasons. These can include investing in property, upgrading to a bigger place, renovating your existing home or even purchase a new car.

If any of these sound interesting to you, you'll need to sit down and access your home loan. We've helped hundreds of clients through this exact process. Give us a call today and we'll review your current home loan to make sure it's working hard for you.

John gave us exceptional advice and helped my husband and I to get the best mortgage option available to us. Aside from being really thorough, John was always just a phone call away if we had questions or needed greater understanding of the options at hand. We won't hesitate to engage John when the time comes to review our mortgage options again.

John has helped us with three loans and has always succeeded in finding the best loan for purpose. Even when circumstances are challenging and other brokers failed, John came through. He is thorough, takes the hard work out of it, is scrupulously honest always recommends what's best for the client and his follow up is brilliant. His knowledge of the banking sector and the markets is second to none. I have recommended him to friends who say the same. We cannot recommend John highly enough.

Extra Information

Home Buyer Concession Scheme

From 1 July 2019, the FHOG ACT has been replaced with exemptions on stamp duty. The stamp duty exemption is applicable to all properties in ACT, including vacant residential land and both new and established homes at any price. As this is still to aid first home buyers, to be eligible at least one buyer must live in the home for at least 12 months, starting within 12 months of settlement or completion of construction.

To be eligible, first homeowners in the ACT must have a household income below $160,000. This number increases up to $176,650 depending on the number of children you may have.

Stamp duty concessions in NSW

From 1 August 2020, the NSW government has announced that stamp duty will not be applicable to first home buyers for properties valued up to $800,000 and vacant land valued up to $400,000. This stamp duty exemption will be in place for 12 months to 31 July 2021, in which the stamp duty exemptions will revert back to $650,000 for homes and $350,000 for land.

Additionally, a concessional rate of duty will apply to homes valued more than $800,000 but less than $1,000,000 and vacant blocks of land valued more than $400,000 and less than $500,000

How much is the First Home Owners Grant NSW?

The FHOG in NSW is worth $10,000 however conditions apply. To be eligible, your first home must have a total value below $600,000, and be either newly constructed or ‘substantially renovated’. A home is substantially renovated when most or all of the original house was removed or replaced, and it’s the first time the place has been sold, and lived in, after the renovations were completed.

If you plan to build a new home from scratch, you can still be eligible for the FHOG in NSW as long as your land plus the home you build have a combined value of less than $750,000.

You may also be eligible if you buy off the plan or an established home that’s been substantially renovated.

Additionally, savings on stamp duty may still be available if you pay between $500,000 and $550,000 for your first home. As a guide, if your first home is worth $530,000, you pay stamp duty of $6,300 a saving of $3,500. These savings cut out altogether if your first home costs $550,000 or more.
