A FAMILY AFFAIR

Moving out but staying together

Ask any parent and they will tell you the time when children leave the nest to find their way in the world is bittersweet. They will also tell you those young people inevitably find their way back… but for the D’Souza family of The Meadows, the story has been quite the other way around.

Joel D’Souza and his parents, Glenn and Jules, are all residents of AVID’s Strathpine community, The Meadows. Joel was one of The Meadows’ earlier buyers in 2017, purchasing his home in the community – located 25 kilometres north of Brisbane – at 28 years old.

“I decided pretty quickly that this was it – this is where I wanted to live,” Joel said.

“The AVID team were flexible – the community, location and home catered to all my needs, and it was a complete package with everything included.”

“My parents loved The Meadows as much as did, and they said how they’d love to live here as well. It started as a bit of a joke at first but then we thought, well why not?” he said.
