If you have a 5% deposit, the Victorian Government will contribute up to 25% of the purchase price, in exchange for an equivalent share in the property. This can help you reduce your mortgage. Find out if you’re eligible at vic.gov.au/homebuyer
Stamp duty and other costs are payable in addition to the deposit. Eligibility and lending criteria apply with selected banks and restrictions and obligations apply after purchase. Authorised by the Victorian Government, 1 Treasury Place, Melbourne.
