First Home Guarantee Scheme EXPLAINED! Avoid These Mistakes & Save 55K [Everything You Need To Know]

[@felixpeel3518]

Surely all schemes like this “to help people buy a house” don’t help the general market in the long run… just increasing competition in the market driving prices higher. Why do they do them? How about some schemes that actually increase supply or promote multi family so people can buy an affordable place to live without needing to be 95% debt 😅

Thanks for sharing Felix!

[@madonnaw1234]

Totally agree with this.

[@masemase1931]

Is there any government incentives for 2nd home buyers ?? All the info i can find is based on first home buyers

[@MortgageBrokerAustralia]

Yeah the First Home Guarantee Scheme is available if you havent owned a home in 10+ years - www.huntergalloway.com.au/home-guarantee-scheme/ - but if you are upgrading not really sorry!

How does it work when using the equity on your current house to purchase an investment property?

If somebody has 20% deposit , how this scheme will help to save money ?

[@MortgageBrokerAustralia]

Thanks Fatema, unfortunately this scheme isn't available if you have a 20% deposit.

Hey guys, Thanks for the wonderful videon- I have a quick question. Are there different interest rates for loan applications put thru FHLDS ? Say when I pay 5% deposit , the interest rate that I get is different from 20% deposit - how does it work ? In this video you applied same interest rate for different % of initial deposits-hencewhy the question raised in mind !

[@MortgageBrokerAustralia]

Great question, that's right. The banks give rates as if it's an 80% lend given it's backed by the government

[@thomasferguson3797]

Would it still be beneficial to use a mortgage broker if you have to apply through a participating lender directly??

[@MortgageBrokerAustralia]

Thanks Thomas, certainly would. As lenders only get allocated a certain number of spots. We have a number of lenders that are participating in the scheme and as a mortgage broker take care of all the details with the application on your behalf. Feel free to reach out with us here: www.huntergalloway.com.au/contact/

Thank you I will be in touch👍

[@MortgageBrokerAustralia]

Thanks Thomas!

Great stuff Guys 👏!!! Just a quick question , in FHGS (FHLDS), Can the buyer deposit only 5% ? Can’t the buyer deposit more than 5% ( say 10% 15%) ?? Are there any restrictions not to pay over 5%? Would you be able to clarify this !

[@MortgageBrokerAustralia]

Thanks Siva, confirming you can put as much deposit as you like. 5% is the minimum

[@sivavp]

That’s awesome 👏! Thanks much for the swift clarification- much appreciated Jayden /Nathan😎

[@drevil7684]

Great advice!

[@MortgageBrokerAustralia]

Glad you think so!

9:25 You’re not allowed interest only loans? You’re allowed interest only periods on loans for up to 5 years. Am I getting confused on semantics here? 😂

[@slimeslime2123]

The word scheme really throws me off

[@MortgageBrokerAustralia]

Thanks for watching!
