Owning your first home is easier
"Brisbane City Council is making it easier to buy your first home by providing a one-year 50 per cent rates discount for first home owners.
We’re making Brisbane better by providing relief for first home owners when they need it most.
The 50 per cent rates remission of up to $1,000 over a 12-month period for eligible first home owners (the First Home Owner Remission scheme) will commence for title transfers from 1 October and will be available on homes with a value less than $750,000" (Brisbane City Council, 2019).
