Overview
First Home Buyers Guarantee
The First Home Buyers Guarantee is an Australian Government initiative to support eligible first home buyers purchase their first home sooner.
The First Home Buyers Guarantee places will be available to eligible first home buyers from 1 July 2021 to 30 June 2025
Usually, first home buyers with less than a 20% deposit need to pay lenders mortgage insurance.
Under this Scheme, part of an eligible first home buyer’s home loan from a Participating Lender will be guaranteed by NHFIC. This is aimed at enabling you to purchase your first home sooner with as little as a 5% deposit.
Any guarantee of your home loan is for up to a maximum amount of 15% of the value of your property (as assessed by your lender). This guarantee is not a cash payment or a deposit for your home loan.
