1 juill. 2016 - KiwiSaver Homestart Scheme - changed

Description:

The income-limits for second-chance home buyers were removed. This meant that second-chance home buyers with low assets were able to access their KiwiSaver funds to buy a home, regardless of their income.
The asset limit of 20 percent of the house price caps of $550,000 (Auckland), $450,000 (Wellington, Christchurch and other areas facing affordability issues) and $350,000 (rest of New Zealand) remained.
Prior to this change, the income limits were $120,000 for a couple and $80,000 for an individual.
The KiwiSaver Homestart Scheme had been introduced on 1 April 2015, replacing the KiwiSaver First Home Deposit Subsidy.
