Episode 13 | Unlocking First Home Buyer Support in New South Wales

New South Wales has a range of incentives designed to help first home buyers reduce upfront costs and enter the market sooner. From stamp duty concessions to the $10,000 First Home Owner Grant, and the First Home Guarantee Scheme with rising price caps, there’s a lot to understand.

In this episode, Jack Elliott walks you through what’s available in NSW as of September 2025, who’s eligible, and the key benefits and trade-offs to keep in mind. You’ll learn how each incentive works, and why your property strategy and asset quality matter more than simply chasing the biggest discount.

🔑 The $10,000 First Home Owner Grant explained
