$55,000 IS UP FOR GRABS IF YOU QUALIFY?

Have you heard? There are incredible new Government Stimulus packages that have recently been announced for anyone wanting to build a home, especially for ‘first home buyers’.

And with all this good news, first home buyers have certainly responded! You’ve probably seen on the news that there’s been a flurry of activity. House and land packages all around Perth are selling out fast (people are even sleeping out!).

2020 was already looking like a great time to build, with record low interest rates and an abundance of land. But then new Federal and State Government Grants were announced and it has made it even easier and more lucrative for first home buyers to get into their first home! WOW, how amazing!

At WOW Homes we’ve had thousands of people enquiring over the past month from people who want to get into home ownership. This is a once in a one-hundred year event if there were ever a time it’s now!

Answer a few easy questions and find out if you qualify.
