About this listen

Western Australia offers some strong incentives to help first home buyers reduce upfront costs and enter the market with confidence, but knowing how to use them strategically is what makes the difference.

In this episode, Jack Elliott breaks down what’s available as of October 2025, including WA’s stamp duty concessions for first home buyers, the $10,000 First Home Owner Grant for new builds, updates to the First Home Guarantee Scheme, and Keystart’s shared equity and low-deposit options.
