Northern Territory First Home Buyer Support

NORTHERN TERRITORY

At a glance: The current HomeGrown Territory grant offers $50,000 for eligible first-home buyers building or buying a new home, including eligible owner-build and off-the-plan pathways. The earlier $10,000 established-home HomeGrown grant ended 30 September 2025 and is no longer a current offer.

What is available now: HomeGrown Territory

Current first-home buyer support includes a $50,000 HomeGrown Territory grant for eligible buyers building or buying a new home, including eligible owner-build and off-the-plan pathways.

Ended, not current: the previous $10,000 established-home HomeGrown grant applied only to qualifying contracts in the earlier period ending 30 September 2025. It is not a current new-contract offer.

New vs established homes

The current $50,000 grant is for new homes (including owner-build and off-the-plan) only. Established-home purchases do not currently qualify for a HomeGrown grant.

Residence

Current HomeGrown grant rules require principal-place-of-residence occupancy for 12 months under the updated arrangements.

How this can work with federal support

The $50,000 HomeGrown grant can potentially combine with the 5% Deposit Scheme for a new-home purchase where you separately qualify for both.

What to confirm before signing

  • that your purchase is new, owner-build or off-the-plan, not established
  • the current 12-month principal-place-of-residence occupancy requirement
  • current Territory Revenue Office eligibility conditions directly before signing
