We are now proud homeowners! Thank you Darren and Tracy for helping us purchase our first home. Thank you for your guidance, responsiveness and ensuring our experience was seamless from start to finish. Being first home owners the thought of the process was a little daunting but turned out to be straight forward, easy and stress free with the help of Darren and Tracy. We highly recommend Mortgage Choice Arundel, you will be in great hands!

There aren’t enough words to express how grateful I am to Will. He was with us through every step of the process. It started with a general chat to see what our options were and ended up with the purchase of our dream family home! Will and his assistant know their stuff and I’d most certainly recommend them to all my family and friends.
Jeanette S., 29 April 2021 | Coomera,

Darren delivered on all of his commitments. Great support from Tracy and the team.
Frank D., Ringwood North, VIC
- Refinancer

This was my first home I was buying and had no idea what I needed to do to get my finances organised in order to buy a home. Darren and Tracey were so helpful in explaining every step a long the way and kept me well informed on the process. They made it so easy for me I don’t know how I would have done it without them. Thank you!!
Jessica T., 15 April 2021 | Mermaid Waters,

After trying unsuccessfully to refinance my home loan on my own I went back to Mortgage Choice at Arundel and found that Will and his team were amazing and efficient, securing me a new home loan with minimal fuss in a very timely manner. Highly recommend to anyone looking for help with a home loan.
Helen K., 2 June 2021 | Coombabah, QLD
- Refinancer

Darren and Jodie have assisted us with absolute professionalism, plain English talk and busloads of patience throughout our mortgage journey (that was far from smooth sailing, thanks to greedy land developers out there!). We would highly recommend them to anyone and everyone who wants true commitment and least hassle during their home/land purchase journey!
Janine L., 19 Aug 2021 | Maudsland, QLD

Highly recommend the team at Arundel!!! Have used them multiple times now and it’s always an easy - stress free experience
Jacqui H., Maudsland, QLD
- Refinancer

Cannot recommend Mortgage Choice Arundel highly enough! Darren and Tracy were so helpful and knowledgeable from start to finish. As my partner & I were first home buyers we were unsure of what to do in order to secure our finance for our new home but Darren & Tracy were there every step of the way to answer all our questions. Outstanding service and if it wasn't for them we would not have bought our first home.
Kenneth S., 5 May 2021 | Capalaba,

Darren and Jodie from the Arundel team have been fantastic with assisting us with securing a mortgage on a property, when everyone else has said that we had no chance! They went above and beyond and although the process is very stressful, Darren and Jodie have achieved the impossible! Thank you so much! Highly recommend!
Linda K., 15 April 2021 | Paradise Point,

Darren and his team have been absolutely wonderful throughout our home loan process making it as stree free as it can be. Most brokers we went to, we either never heard back from or it took weeks to receive a reply. Darren and Tracy were efficient, fast, kind and very communicative with us. Would highly recommend to anyone. Thank you Darren and Tracy for helping us with our home loan!
Kayla T., 27 May 2021 | Oxenford, QLD
- First Home Buyer

I cannot fault the service offered by Will and Jeanette. They did everything within their power to ensure we had the best experience possible. They got us a great rate and went above and beyond to ensure all the deadlines were met. It was fantastic experience.

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 $176,000 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.

How much is the First Home Owners Grant in the NT?

The First Home Owner Grant in NT is$10,000. Your income and the price of your home don’t affect the FHOG NT, and the grant is available if you buy or build a new house, apartment, duplex or townhouse.

The Territory’s First Home Owner Discount has been in place since 8 February 2019. It lets you save up to a maximum of $18,601 on the cost of stamp duty. The savings is available whether you buy a new or established home as long as the home is valued under $650,000.

Click here for more information on the NT First home Owner Grant.

How much is the First Home Owners Grant QLD?

As a first home buyer in Queensland you could be entitled to the $15,000 First Home Owner Grant. To be eligible, you need to buy a brand new home or build a home from scratch with the total value (including the land) below $750,000. You may also be eligible if you buy off the plan or an established home that’s been substantially renovated.

As a guide, substantial renovations include replacing or altering foundations or replacing or altering floors. Cosmetic work such as painting the walls or sanding floors doesn’t add up to a substantial renovation when it comes to the FHOG in QLD.

Stamp duty concessions

If you’re buying vacant land to build your first home, you pay zero stamp duty as long as you pay $400,000 or less for your block. Whereas if your first home is valued up to $500,000, you pay zero stamp duty. That’s a saving of $8,750, which is the maximum stamp duty rebate available to first home buyers in Qld.

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 $505,000, you pay stamp duty of $1,050, a saving of $7,875. These savings cut out altogether if your first home costs $550,000 or more. On a property valued at $550,000, for example, the stamp duty would work out to be $10,600.

How much is the First Home Owners Grant SA?

There are currently no specific stamp duty concessions available for first home buyers in SA.

The $15,000 FHOG in South Australia is only available to first home owners who buy or build a brand new home. You can choose from a house, apartment, townhouse or villa, but you will only be able to claim the FHOG SA if you pay below $575,000 for your home.

You can also claim the First Home Owner Grant in South Australia when you buy a block of vacant land to build your first home on. However, the end value of your building plus land must be no more than $575,000.

Stamp duty concessions in TAS

If you buy an established home, you are not eligible for the FHOG in Tasmania but you may be able to claim savings on stamp duty. If you’re home is valued at

$400,000 or less, you will receive a 50% discount on the property transfer duty (stamp duty).

How much is the First Home Owners Grant TAS?

The FHOG Tasmania is worth $20,000 until 30 June 2022 but only when you buy or build a new home. Off the plan purchases are also eligible. In Tasmania, there is no limit on the purchase price of the property, and the FHOG is not means tested.

Click here for more information on the TAS First home Owner Grant.

Stamp duty concessions in VIC

First home owners in Victoria don’t pay stamp duty at all on their first home as long as the property is valued below $600,000. You may still be eligible for savings on stamp duty if you pay between $600,000 and $750,000 for your first home. The stamp duty concessions available in Victoria apply to both established and new homes.

How much is the First Home Owners Grant VIC?

The FHOG Victoria is only available if you buy a newly built home or if you choose to build a home from scratch. The FHOG is worth $10,000 if you build/buy in Victoria.

Click here for more information on the VIC First home Owner Grant.

Stamp duty concessions in WA

If you buy vacant land to build your first home, you’re exempt from paying stamp duty as long as you don’t pay more than $300,000. If you pay between $300,000 and $400,000 you will be entitled to a reduced rate of duty.

If you buy a home costing up to $430,000, no stamp duty is payable at all. If the value of your home is between $430,000 and $530,000, you’ll be entitled to a reduced rate of stamp duty. There are no additional concessions for homes valued above $530,000 and land valued above $400,000.

How much is the First Home Owners Grant WA?

The FHOG WA is worth $10,000 when you buy or build a brand new home. There are limits on what you can pay for your first home to be eligible for the FHOG in Western Australia.

If you’re located south of the 26th parallel, which basically covers all the Perth metropolitan area, you can claim the FHOG WA if your new home is worth up to $750,000 – this includes the value of the land plus buildings.

If you buy or build a home north of the 26th parallel, the property must be valued up to or below $1 million to be eligible for the FHOG WA.
