Top 20 First Home Buyer Suburbs in WA


Another article recently published mentioned that first homebuyers are fleeing Perth with the last month showing Perth recorded the lowest number of first homebuyers being paid since April 2007. This was a 60% drop from the peak of first homebuyer payments in June 2009. I would think given the current housing market, the federal government would start reintroducing the first homebuyer grants. Personally, that would certainly help to get my attention. 
Here is a list of the top 20 suburbs that first homebuyers have been targeting over the past financial year to date.
Top first home owner grant suburbs 2010-11 to date:
  1. Canning Vale, 114 grants paid
  2. Baldivis, 113
  3. Banksia Grove, 78
  4. Ellenbrook, 77
  5. Butler, 71
  6. Bertram, 65
  7. Gosnells, 56
  8. Piara Waters, 53
  9. Byford, 50
  10. Nollamara, 49
  11. Girrawheen, 47
  12. Clarkson, 45
  13. Wanneroo, 43
  14. Dianella, 41
  15. Hammond Park, 40
  16. Thornlie, 40
  17. Aubin Grove, 39
  18. Success, 38
  19. Innaloo, 38
  20. Perth, 38
