The Queensland Government’s $30,000 First Home Owner Grant is creating exciting opportunities for buyers who never thought home ownership was within reach. And what many people don’t realise is this:
You can use the grant to build a granny flat or modular home. As long as the dwelling is a new home—and meets the requirements of a permanent Class 1A structure—you may be eligible.
This has opened the door for a growing number of our clients who are now entering the housing market in a smarter, more affordable way.
For many first home buyers, the biggest hurdle is the cost of land. That’s why so many are now choosing to build on:
With the $30,000 grant, clients are able to build a brand-new, fully compliant granny flat or modular home at a fraction of the cost of traditional home ownership.
An interesting trend we’re seeing is older Queenslanders qualifying for the grant when downsizing into their very first individually owned home. Even when the granny flat is built for a retired family member, the grant still applies if it’s the first home they’ve ever owned.
Whether we construct the home onsite, build it in our Lawnton yard and transport it to you, or deliver it all the way out to Western Queensland, the grant can still apply—as long as the home meets the criteria set out by the state government.
At Hoek Modular Homes, our team guides clients step-by-step through:
We’re seeing more first home buyers each month take advantage of this initiative, and it’s one of the smartest ways to enter the market today.
