      Hi Craig,

      Thanks for your question.

      In some cases, lenders, such as Bank of Queensland (BOQ) accept non-refundable gifts to go towards a deposit. However, BOQ will treat each application on a case-by-case basis so you will need to get in touch with BOQ directly to discuss your children’s application.

      I hope you find this useful.

      Thanks,
      Belinda
