Building a new home
The Territory Government is delivering the most generous home builder program in the country with targeted incentives to grow the population and get the workforce the Territory needs to rebuild the economy. The scheme includes:
- the HomeGrown Territory grant, which provides $50,000 for first home buyers building or buying a new home, or $10,000 for buying an established home
- the FreshStart new home grant, which provides $30,000 to buy or build a new home. In an Australian first, this includes anyone who has previously owned or currently owns a home.
The Territory Government is also supporting land release to boost construction and increase home ownership. The 2025 Budget includes $49.6 million to deliver district-level enabling infrastructure to facilitate the Holtze land release area to create Greater Darwin’s next urban suburb.
The 2025 budget also includes $11 million for headworks infrastructure to support the development of residential land in Farrar West.
