First home buyers

Getting into your first home is a huge investment both emotionally and financially, often blocked by saving for your deposit.

With the First Home Loan Deposit Scheme, 10,000 more Australians will be able to buy their first home this year. Choosing Simonds as your new home builder means you will have a team committed to ensuring it runs smoothly.

Are you ready to buy AND build?

Whether you've been thinking about building your dream home for years or a few months, it's a huge decision. Here are some things you should be thinking about.

Are your finances in order?

Are you currently in a comfortable position paying your rent and bills? Do you have debts to consolidate? Do you have a deposit saved for a down payment?

Could I be eligible for the First Home Loan Deposit Scheme?

First Home Loan Deposit Scheme is a federal Government initiative to support eligible first home buyers looking to purchase a home sooner. Find out if you are eligible for this guarantee program that could see you needing a deposit as low 5%, by contacting Simonds today.

Are you planning on living where you are for at least two to five years?

As the transactional costs of buying a home are significant, that’s the window financial planners generally recommend, especially to help you secure your loan.

What is the after-tax cost of owning a home?

If you’re on solid financial ground and ready to make a longer-term commitment, the next step is to get a realistic estimate of what you can expect to spend, and how that breaks down monthly.

How realistic is your vision?

We recommend sitting down and making a list of wants and needs. Under the “needs” category, list the features your home must have, such as a bedroom ensuite and the open plan kitchen you've been dreaming of. Under the “wants” category, list the 'nice to haves' – the things you'd love but won’t make or break your dream.

Choosing the right home

It all starts with a conversation. You’ll take your very first steps with one of our sales consultants either online, over the phone, or at one of our display homes. They’ll help you choose a Simonds home that suits your lifestyle, location and budget, by showing you what's available and helping you make the right decisions to create the home of your dreams. Our homes are designed with more open plan living options for more family moments together.

We like to bring the outside in with beautiful alfresco settings, and specially designed spaces created just for the kids, while parents can retreat to relaxing, quieter spaces. Plus, our Fusion range lets you choose from multiple floor plans that you can personalise to suit your family's needs.
