Deb Allen has been instrumental in our property investment journey and without her commitment and focus we wouldn't be where we are today. When people ask me about loans etc I always recommend Deb and I will continue to do so. Deb has always given us brilliant customer service, we feel that she has our best interests at heart and we feel very confident with her and what options she gives us when we make our lending decisions.

This is the second time we have dealt with Hannah. As previously, she does what she says she will do and gets on with looking after you immediately. She is completely wonderful in our eyes!

Thank you so much Deb and Nicole. You were both always on hand to explain and advise me of what I needed to do. Nothing appeared to ever be too much trouble and all the questions I asked never appeared to be too silly. Thank you for guiding me thought the process for a second time!!

Thanks Deb for going above and beyond to help me secure my refinance and to help me get out of the financial hole i was finding myself in.
J Pollock, Kingsbury, VIC

We were extremely happy with the assistance and advice we received from Narelle Young backed up by Debra Allen in the office. Narelle was always available for any questions we had and never made us feel like a nuisance. She was always extremely professional, helpful and obliging. I would recommend her to anyone seeking loan assistance.
GC, St Helena, VIC
- Property Investor

Thanks Mortgage Choice, your customer service was exceptional with updates as they came in. I was notified via email and phone at each step, which to me is the highest form of service (phone - in case your not at your desk and email so you have a record).
Chris was extremely helpful with the type of loan, professional advice on loan options and direction in my decision making. I felt very comfortable with Chris, his professionalism and trusted his advice.
I would use Chris again and currently recommend him to my clients.
R Glenn, Doreen, VIC
- Upgrader

Hannah was awesome! I have recommended her to several of my friends over the years based on an initial enquiry 4 years ago. Having only recently purchased my first home she was just as attentive and happy to answer any question I might have. I think what made it so easy was that she is a great communicator and ultimately knows her business.
R Dobson, North Fitzroy, VIC
- First Home Buyer

This was our first time applying for a home loan so it was very big scary step made so easier with the service we received. Thank you Debra and everyone at Mortgage Choice greensborough!

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.

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.

As of 30 June 2021, there are currently no stamp duty concessions for first home buyers in NT.

Previously the Territory’s First Home Owner Discount was in place from 8 February 2019 to 30 June 2021. It let you save up to a maximum of $18,601 on the cost of stamp duty. The savings were available whether you purchased a new or established home as long as the home was valued under $650,000.

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 $7,175 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 $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.
