Hi everyone,
We are planning to buy our first home in North-West Sydney. We are moving to Sydney from Brisbane this month. We have heard that if we buy our first home before 31/12/2011 we will get the first home buyer grant as well as stamp duty concession. But from 1/1/2012 we will not get anything. Is this correct information? We don’t want to overpay just to get these benefits, but at the same time we don’t want to pay heaps more if we wait till mid next year. We will be very new to Sydney and don’t want to rush to buy our first home. Will we be stupid to wait till mid next year to buy our first home? We are very confused and not really sure what to do? Can someone please give us some light on this?
Thanks,
Babbajina
