More time granted to first home buyers


Yesterday, the treasurer has announced in the Federal Budget that 

- Until 30 September 2009, first home owners will get the existing $21,000 for new homes and $14,000 for existing homes. 

- Between 30 September 2009 and 31 December 2009, first home owners will get $14,000 for new homes and  $10,500 for existing homes.

- After 31 December 2009, first home owners will continue to get the reduced amount of $7,000 for new or existing homes. 

The idea would be to slowly remove the first home owner "boost" without shocking the system.
