‘First’creek homes near CONSTRUCTION of homes in Armstrong Creek’s first residential estate will begin before the end of the year, according to Warralily’s general manager. Mark Whinfield said the development would release titles for its first four stages in September and October after “positive progress” since the start of civil works early this year. The works underway covered internal roads, drains, sewers, water, electricity and broadband services, he said. “Within a fortnight we aim to start work on a signalised intersection on the corner of Barwon Heads Road and Warralily Boulevard and install underground drainage where Barwon Heads Road crosses Armstrong Creek.” Mr Whinfield said “restoration and rejuvenation” of Armstrong Creek was also underway to create an environmental centrepiece in Warralily. “We have already begun work to form the shape and base levels for the creek, including retention basins
Non-bank lenders ‘lose more ground’
and wetlands to treat stormwater prior to it flowing downstream to Lake Connewarre and the important Ramsar wetlands,” he said. “The shaping of the waterway will also provide for a wide range of edge conditions, water depths, shapes and forms to meet the needs of aquatic, fauna and plant life.” Mr Whinfield said workers had collected a range of indigenous tree, shrub, grass and aquatic seeds from the site to help recreate a “healthy and diverse ecosystem”. “A whopping 187,500 native seedlings are currently being propagated in anticipation for the first plantings to be completed by the end of winter in readiness for spring.” Mr Whinfield said the aim of the civil and environmental works was to lay “the foundations for a healthy, attractive and sustainable community”. “From the very outset in our planning for Warralily our priority has been to create a community for our residents that is both future-friendly Cable guy: Leopold’s Jesse Lothian lays a cable at Warralily. and environmentally sound.
AUSTRALIA’S non-bank lending sector has continued losing ground to Australia’s banks, according to latest figures from Australian Bureau of Statistics. The bureau reported last week that the banks accounted for 90.2 per cent of housing loan transactions in February compared to 1.9 per cent for the non-bank sector, its worst share since joining the mortgage market in 1995. The non-bank sector had a 13.6 per cent share in 2007 immediately before the start of the global financial crisis. The ABS figures showed the big four banks held 80 per cent of the market. Credit unions and building societies had a market share in February of 7.9 per cent, down marginally on the past last few months. Mortgage and Finance Association of Australia’s Phil Naylor said the future of nonbank lenders looked bleak despite Federal Government intervention in the mortgage market. “These figures support our contention that the upcoming elimination of exit fees will not increase competition,” Mr Naylor said. “Most of the major banks have already dropped their exit fees ahead of government regulation and this has clearly resulted in a churning of loans among the major banks but to the detriment of non-bank lenders. “On the basis of this trend, non-bank lenders will disappear when exit fees are totally banned in July. How can it be good for consumers when the most competitive lenders are forced out of the market?” Mr Naylor said the MFAA had unsuccessfully sought an exemption from the ban for nonbank lenders.

newhomes&land Builders’network displays expertise I ndependent Builders Network has recently showcased its first open home in Torquay. Builders and tradesmen working together in the new network mingled with prospective clients as they inspected the four-bedroom design in The Quay Estate last Saturday and Sunday. The network, which covers all of Victoria, has brought together the expertise of local Independent Building Network (IBN) builders operating in the Geelong region. An IBN spokesperson says “clients enjoy the benefits of dealing with a local builder as well as competitive pricing compared to larger corporations.” IBN’s builder members are dedicated to providing a high standard of customer service throughout the building process. “Having your local builder work on planning and building your dream house makes Independent Builders Network
the high-quality yet costeffective alternative choice,” the network spokesperson says. The Torquay display exhibits the type of quality workmanship available with IBN. The generously proportioned design includes features such as double vanities, a modern open-plan layout and a kitchen worthy of the finest home chef. The display earned warm praise during the opening weekend, which was promoted in last week’s Independent newspaper. Beaumont Tiles’ Retail Sales Manager Jeremy Lloyd contacted IBN afterward to compliment the members. “I congratulate you all, not just on the display home but for what appeared to be great solidarity with the group of builders I met,” he said. The house will continue to be showcased over the coming weeks at 75 Inshore Drive, Torquay. Appointments for inspections can be arranged by phoning 1300 IBN NET.

Don’t leave it to Buckley’s chance P roperty developer Tidebird has recently announced the launch of a long-awaited stage three Riverfalls Estate land release. Tidebird director Gary Plumridge says Riverfalls’ new allotments range from 700 to 953 square metres and are available through private sale at Gartlands Real Estate. “Riverfalls offers buyers an opportunity to build close to the Baums weir,” Gary says. “This weir was created to ensure the paper mills on the opposite side of the river had sufficient water to turn their water wheels in the late 1800s and the early 1900s, so imagine taking the family on canoe trips up the Barwon through the majestic Barrabool Hills.” Gary says the estate features parkland surrounding the Barwon River’s edge with extensive native trees.
“Residents at Riverfalls will marvel at the diversity of birdlife at their doorstep,” he says. “The entrance to the Riverfalls estate has a purpose-built wetland area and has seen the endangered growling grass frog return in large numbers.” “Riverfalls ticks all the boxes for buyers looking to build a home that provides an unequalled lifestyle by being part of a boutique housing enclave. “Historians claim that William Buckley lived in the Riverfalls area for almost 32 years, so now it’s your turn to inspect and secure your block at Riverfalls stage three while they last.” Gary encourages buyers to contact Gartland Real Estate’s Phillipa Gartland on 0409 499 765 for more information on the available allotments.
Scenic: A new lifestyle awaits at Riverfalls Estate.
473283-SH13-11
Country style: Riverfalls has areas of native parkland running down to the river’s edge.
Adventure: Canoe trips on the Barwon will be part of the daily lifestyle at Riverfalls. Real Estate page 17
