First Home Buyer Grants in Queensland: The 2026 Guide

Buying your first home in Queensland has never been more achievable — if you know which grants to claim and how to stack them. Most first home buyers leave thousands of dollars on the table simply because no one walked them through the full picture.

The QLD $30,000 First Home Owner Grant

For new builds (which is exactly what our turn-key house and land packages are), the Queensland Government offers a $30,000 First Home Owner Grant. Because our packages are brand-new constructions on freshly titled land, every one of our first home buyers is eligible.

Stamp duty concessions

First home buyers in Queensland buying a new home under $700,000 may pay no transfer duty at all, with concessions phasing out up to $800,000. On a $620,000 package that is roughly $21,000 saved.

Low-deposit pathways

The federal First Home Guarantee lets eligible buyers purchase with as little as a 5% deposit and no lenders mortgage insurance. Combined with the grant and stamp duty savings, many of our clients move from renting to owning for under $25,000 out of pocket.
