Hi all,
Having been a member for a couple of months I thought I would start my own thread documenting our build journey. We are building with the explicit aim of accessing both the WA Builders Grant and HomeBuilder Grant. We are also accessing stamp duty exemption and FHOG. I thought this could be helpful for anyone else trying the make sense of these grants, and how they can access them.
A bit about our build:
- First home builders
- Building in Perth Hills
- Building with WA Country Builders, building The Malbec
- Building in a strata of nine lots. Our lot is 395m2, R20 coding with a common driveway.
- We bought our land for $310k and have a $260k build budget.
We started our process last year (2019) looking at display homes, narrowing it down to 4 builders in June.

We plan to take the grants and put the full 45k straight back into our mortgage.
We are currently waiting for settlement on our block (31/8), and are haven’t signed a PPA yet. Hoping to do that by the end of the week.
I have attached our plans, any advice/feedback is welcome.
