Hobart's property market has grown steadily but remains more affordable than mainland capitals, with a median house price of approximately $729,000. This makes sole-income refinancing more achievable for separating Tasmanians.
Tasmania's $30,000 FHOG - no price cap
Tasmania offers the most generous First Home Owner Grant in Australia: $30,000 with no property value cap. For separated parents looking to build a new home, this is an extraordinary opportunity. Combined with the Family Home Guarantee (2% deposit), you could buy a new home with minimal upfront costs.
