Government Grant Update
AS of the first of January this year the Federal Government’s First Home Owners Boost has ceased.
The boost did the job it was intended to do and that was to support the
economy during the global financial crisis.
Australia’s housing market bounced back strongly in 2009 after a subdued market the year before.
Over the year, Melbourne has been Australia’s best performing capital city with gains of 19.7% according to RP Data.
Within the Manningham area, Lower Templestowe was the best performing suburb, with an increase of 28.1%, according to figures produced by the Real Estate Institution of Victoria.
The December 2009 median price for Lower Templestowe was $694,500 up from $542,000 in December 2008.
It’s becoming increasingly harder for a first home buyer to buy, particularly in the Manningham area. However if you are a first home buyer you may still be eligible for one or more of the State First Home Owners grants.
The following table sets out the different amounts that first home buyers in Victoria may be eligible for:

moreover, he was rich, and in consequence, all the wiser still, for
being in want of nothing, he had no need to deceive anybody."
