Our House & Land packages make building easy by bringing together the right section and home design – so you can skip the stress and get straight to the fun part. Here’s everything you might want to know:
A construction loan is paid out in stages as your home is built – these are called progress payments. You’ll usually only pay the interest during the build, which helps with cash flow.
Some lenders offer special construction rates, so choosing the right one can save you money.

When you sign your Building Agreement with us, the total cost to build your home is locked in.
No hidden extras. No unexpected costs. Just peace of mind.

Most banks ask for:
• 10% for owner-occupier builds (or sometimes 5% if you're a first home buyer)
• 20% for investment builds
First home buyers may also get bank cash contributions to help with costs.

On average, the full process takes 10–12 months, including planning, consent, and construction.
The physical build usually takes 6–10 months, depending on your home design and weather conditions.
Our House & Land packages include everything you need to move in, from the home itself to the driveway, fixtures, and fittings.
Sometimes, to give you more flexibility, we leave a few things – like landscaping, decking, or window furnishings – up to you. If that’s the case, they’ll be clearly listed in the property details.
So you’ll always know what’s included, with no surprises.
