First Home Owners Grant

About

The First Home Owners Grant (or in short, the FHOG). Western Australia's government passed the First Home Owner Grant Act in 2001 but the benefits and qualification criteria has changed over the years, resulting in a fair degree of confusion.

The Western Australian government intended for the First Home Owners Grant to boost housebuilding where it is needed most, while leaving the grant open only to those who are in real need of help with their first home purchase.
