Re: How do I qualify for the first home loan deposit scheme?

Yes, that’s my understanding as well. One final thing can you explain to me how does the new scheme actually work? I mean how much is the government actually guaranteeing and when does it expire?

Re: How do I qualify for the first home loan deposit scheme?

So let me get this clear, currently, if I were to apply for a home loan, do I have to come up with the LMI as well as the deposit? Can’t I add the LMI fee on to my home loan amount?

How do I qualify for the first home loan deposit scheme?

Hi, we’ve been saving for a deposit for a couple of years now. We’re looking to purchase somewhere in Waitara, NSW where the median price was $665,000 last year. We are both first home buyers with about $70k in savings which is roughly 10%. We understand we may have to pay LMI but I recently read that the government announced a first home buyer’s scheme wherein first home buyers pay no LMI. How does the government's new deposit scheme work? And how do we qualify?
