First Home Buyer Schemes
RFHBG
Regional First Home Buyer Guarantee
The regional-area variant of FHBG — same 5% deposit benefit, but only for regional postcodes.
The Regional First Home Buyer Guarantee mirrors the standard FHBG but is restricted to applicants who have lived in a regional area for at least 12 months and are buying in that regional area. Property price caps are usually higher than the metro FHBG cap for the same state. Places are allocated separately from FHBG.
