What changes when you compare home loans in Queensland
The lenders on this page price nationally — your interest rate is the same buying in Brisbane as it is anywhere else. What does change is the cash going in. First home buyers in QLD can combine the $30,000 First Home Owner Grant with the state stamp duty concession (full exemption on new or existing homes ≤ $700,000; concessional rates from $700,000 to $800,000 (fhb rate)) and the federal Home Guarantee Scheme cap of $1,000,000 (Brisbane + regional centres) / $700,000 (rest of QLD). Those three together can shift your minimum deposit by tens of thousands without ever touching the rate column above.

Home Guarantee Scheme — 5% deposit, no LMI
Buy a home with as little as a 5% deposit without paying Lenders Mortgage Insurance — the federal government guarantees the rest. Since 1 October 2025 the scheme has unlimited places, no income caps, and significantly higher property caps. The property must be your principal place of residence (no investors).

Queensland home loan FAQs
What are the lowest home loan rates in Queensland?
Our Queensland table is sorted by comparison rate so the lowest rates sit at the top, refreshed daily. Home loan rates aren't set by state — the same lenders price nationally — so a QLD buyer accesses the same rates as anyone else; the grants and concessions are what differ in QLD.
What is the First Home Owner Grant in QLD?
QLD's First Home Owner Grant is $30,000. Buying or building a new home, contracts signed between 20 Nov 2023 and 30 Jun 2026. Reverts to $15,000 for contracts signed after 30 Jun 2026.

Do first home buyers pay stamp duty in QLD?
Full exemption on new or existing homes ≤ $700,000; concessional rates from $700,000 to $800,000 (FHB rate). These concessions can be worth more than a small difference in interest rate, so factor them into your total cost — not just the headline rate. Authority: Queensland Revenue Office.
What is the Home Guarantee Scheme property price cap in QLD?
$1,000,000 (Brisbane + regional centres) / $700,000 (rest of QLD) Under the federal Home Guarantee Scheme, eligible buyers in QLD can purchase under that cap with as little as a 5% deposit and no Lenders Mortgage Insurance — the government guarantees the difference.

Should I use a broker to compare home loans in Queensland?
A broker compares the whole lender panel, handles the paperwork, and negotiates your rate — usually at no cost to you, because the lender pays the broker. For a QLD buyer that also means someone who can line up the right loan with the FHOG, stamp duty concession and Home Guarantee Scheme so nothing eligible is left on the table.
