What Are House and Land Packages?
House and land packages are offered by property developers who acquire land, lay essential infrastructure, and provide:
- Properties: Fully completed homes ready to move into.
- Customisable Home Designs: Choose your block of land and personalise your dream home.
This streamlined approach combines land and construction, making it simpler to secure your new home.
Who Is It For?
House and land packages are best suited for:
- First-home buyers as it’s an affordable way to enter the property market
- Families who require the design and space for their growing needs.
- Investors who want strong rental yields and tax benefits.
- Downsizers who want modern and low-maintenance homes
How Do House and Land Package Loans Work?
House and land package loans have two components:
- Land Loan: Similar to a standard home loan, allowing you to borrow up to 95% of the land’s value.
- Construction Loan: Covers building costs, approved based on the bank’s valuation or the building contract’s cost. Payments are made in stages as construction progresses.
How Much Can I Borrow?
- Up to 95% of the land value for land-first purchases.
- Up to 90% of the property’s completed value for turnkey homes.
- 100% financing if you have a guarantor.
