AUSTRALIA – With the $25,000 Homebuilder grant due to wind back in January, Labor is pushing for it to be further extended for people who lost their homes in bushfires.
Veronica wants to rebuild, but is concerned she won’t meet the deadline to receive the federal government’s $25,000 Homebuilder grant.
In order to receive the full amount, she would need to have a building contract signed by the end of the year.
“Even the difference between $25,000 and $15,000 is massive, it’s a solar system, it’s a bathroom — it’s substantial.”
