At FirstStep Housing, we believe that homeownership should be inclusive and accessible to all. Owning your own home provides stability and can help you build a future for your family. FLISP (Finance Linked Individual Subsidy Programme) is a subsidy aimed at bridging the gap in housing affordability amongst South African households. This could be your key to owning a house if you cannot qualify for a mortgage loan from the bank or RDP housing.
Become a Homeowner
Receiving free money towards buying your first house is life-changing. FLISP, which was renamed FHF (First Home Finance), can be the solution you are seeking. So, what is FLISP? This government housing subsidy is aimed at the gap market, enabling beneficiaries to secure a home loan from a bank. You can also use this money towards another financial plan for homeownership.
If you meet the criteria and qualify, our FirstStep Housing team have the expertise to guide you through the process of becoming a homeowner. We understand that this is an important stage in your life. Overseeing a First Home Finance application with intricate steps and detailed processes can be stressful. For things to go smoothly, every step must be done correctly, which takes time. This is where we come in, for your FLISP application made easy.
Accessing FLISP
To begin with, check if you are a good candidate for the FLISP Government housing subsidy. You must be at least 18 and a South African resident, have a partner and/or dependants living with you, and collectively earn between R3,500 and R22,000 per month. You cannot apply for FLISP if you’ve owned property before, as this grant is only available to first-time buyers.
When assisting you with the FLISP application, our team will request documents and information to get started. This includes ID documents and recent payslips (for both buyers), birth certificates of minor dependents, and details about the property you’re hoping to purchase. In order to apply for the FLISP grant, you must have a signed sale agreement or offer to purchase (OTP). Our FirstStep Housing team can help you prepare and finalise the OTP for your chosen property. Let us help you get a housing subsidy and benefit from our professional approach.
When applying for a Government housing subsidy, you’re allowing yourself to better your life. APPLY NOW and let FirstStep Housing help you achieve this significant milestone with support every step of the way.
