Finance
When you buy a house and land package, you are buying a new home that has not been built yet. The builder will create the home based on the plans you choose, and then they will build it on the land you buy. You need to pay a 10% deposit and stamp duty on the land. You will need to take out two loans.The first loan is for buying the land and the second is for the construction. The construction loan will be given in parts and you only have to pay interest on the cash you use.
Where should you buy?
You need to decide where to buy a house and land package. For example, there are many suburbs in Sydney, and each suburb has different characteristics. If you want to buy a house, start by state, then narrow down by suburb, and then find the estate you want to live in.
You can choose a block of land by thinking about what is important to you, like if it is close to work or has good schools nearby. You should also think about what other conveniences and amenities are important to you.
Choosing your own builder and home design.
In each estate, there are a few different builders who will build you a house. You should research the builders to make sure they are good, and then pick one to build your house.
There are many different types of houses that you can choose from when you are building a new home. You can pick the design that is best for you and fits within your budget.
How long will it take to build before I can rent or sell my investment?
On average, it takes 26 weeks to build a house and land package.
What incentives are available?
If you are buying a house and land package, it might be cheaper if you buy it early on in the development. There might also be some incentives available, such as stamp duty concessions.
The more houses and stages that are sold, the more money you may have to spend on a project, than if you purchased earlier.
Planning for the future
You should think about what might happen in the future that could affect your home. For example, will there be new schools or train lines built near your home? This could make the area more or less desirable to live in.
What is included in the price?
The builder or your Property Consultant should be able to tell you what is included in the cost. This list will tell you what materials are used, as well as the finishes and fixtures.
You should ask the builder what they can do for your home and how much it would cost. You should also ask about any possible additions or extra costs, like landscaping.
When buying a house and land package, it is important to learn as much as you can before you make a decision. Look at examples of the builder’s work, review the display homes, and talk to customers. Make sure that the house and land package is located close to important amenities so you can benefit from price growth and have everything you need close by.
