“The Home Guarantee Scheme is an important incentive making it easier for a first home buyer to raise their deposit more quickly and easily and in turn helping them get into their own home faster.
“The report found one in three first home buyers in Australia have been able to get into their first home by accessing the Scheme.
“It also found that around 10,860, or more than one third of all guarantees were issued to buyers in regional areas in 2022-23 up from around 7,390 in 2021-22,” said Ms Martin.
“The report also showed an increasing proportion of younger buyers participated in the Scheme each year since its inception. More than half of all places under the Scheme, in 2022-23, were taken up by people under the age of 30.
“Since its inception, HIA has been a strong supporter of assistance for first home buyers, to help get Australians into their first home and achieve their home ownership aspirations,” concluded Ms Martin.
A beautifully executed renovation and two-storey extension of a 1900s period home in Wangaratta has been named HIA Northern Victoria Home of the Year at the 2025 HIA Northern Victoria Regional Housing Awards, held in Yarrawonga on Friday night.
“The expansion of the Home Guarantee Scheme announced by the Minister for Housing, Clare O’Neil MP, to take effect from 1 October 2025, will reduce the time to save a deposit by up to four years,” stated HIA Senior Economist Tom Devitt.
“Harnessing artificial intelligence to drive a once in a generation overhaul of planning systems across the country could be the circuit breaker Australia needs to deliver 1.2 million homes over next 5 years” said Sam Heckel HIA Executive Director, Planning & Environment.
