EP. 1506 – FIRST HOME BUYERS USING THEIR SUPERANNUATION AS A DEPOSIT TO BUY!!! WHAT WHAT!? 😲🏠 Sounds too good to be true? It’s not. 💥
🏠💥 Secret weapon for first-home buyers: use your super to save your deposit faster (legally).
It’s the FHSS Scheme and here’s how it works:
- Salary-sacrifice extra into super → taxed at 15% (often much lower than your normal tax).
- You can contribute up to $15k/yr (lifetime $50k cap).
- When you’re ready, withdraw your eligible contributions (generally 85% of concessional + 100% of non-concessional) + earnings for your deposit.
Why it’s good: people save deposits ~30% faster.
Need-to-knows:
• Must be 18+ and intend to live in the home 6 of 12 months.
• One-time use. Sign a contract within 12 months of release.
• Pairs perfectly with the 5% deposit / no LMI guarantee (from 1 Oct).
