How this is calculated

This checklist is not a lender decision. It is a structured preparation tool with visible source references.

The items above are arranged around the points that most often slow a first-home purchase: deposit readiness, grant assumptions, missing documents and unclear pre-approval timing.

  • Queensland grant and duty information. Start with the official Queensland Revenue Office material: qro.qld.gov.au.
  • Federal first-home support. Confirm current low-deposit scheme rules and postcode-cap guidance via the official government resources: firsthomebuyers.gov.au and homeloans.gov.au.
  • General borrowing guidance. Consumer-focused mortgage guidance is available through ASIC MoneySmart: moneysmart.gov.au.

All figures are general information only and can change. The checklist is most useful when treated as a preparation aid before a proper review.

Next, read the first-home buyer loans guide or use the borrowing-power calculator.

General information only. This checklist does not take into account your personal objectives, financial situation or needs. Grant, concession and scheme rules can change and should be confirmed before acting.
