The 10k is only for buying new houses. For existing houses the FHOG no longer exists in Vic. So given you were going for an existing house to subdivide and build out the back you wouldn't get this unfortunately.

If you buy for 750+ you will be above the threshold for any first home owner discounts, benefits, etc so you will be paying full stamp duty.

thanks for all the tips, will try a few out. I wouldn't think it would be the tv as that tv has been with me for 4 houses previously all with no issues.

Thanks good idea with the rabbit ears, will check that. Its only a block of 3 with individual antennas and we are the first to move in, second moves in tomorrow so will ask them as well. Will also check that other forum Ace Thanks

Generally flat land, it's a two story townhouse with many similar around, nothing too big. Also I realised it wasn't clear in the first statement, channel 10 hasn't worked the whole time, just tried a few things to fix it ourselves before checking whose responsibility it is.

Inner west crazy in the last year, I lost out at auction on the weekend on a townhouse in Seddon. This time last year identical townhouse in the 4 unit complex sold for 485k, on the weekend, 564k.

Thanks again for the replies, after checking through the contract Aaron_C and LexCon have got it. I was only working with second hand information so not a breach of contract, but seems she has been misled by a few people involved. Anyway we are currently trying to obtain the licence agreement...

Wow quick replies, thanks guys. I havent seen then contract so I'm only going on what I've been told that there is nothing in there about this eventuality. Will get a copy tomorrow to look at and confirm then consider further options. She relied on the sale of the current property to fund this...

Hi all, first post, lurked for awhile as I'll be looking at purchasing my first home some time this year fingers crossed but this one isn't for me. I have a question on behalf of my partners mother. She has purchased a new house due to settle on the 17th of Feb, she has been informed two days...
