Village a ‘design leader’
BUILDERS and real estate agents have welcomed another reserve bank interest rates reprieve. The bank announced after its monthly meeting this week that rates would stay on hold again. Housing Industry Association chief economist Dr Harley Dale welcomed the decision after a series of increases in 2010. “It is a positive sign for the housing industry that in 2011 the reserve bank has clearly signalled a period of interest rate stability,” he said.

ONE OF the largest display homes in the region is set to open to the public. Villawood Properties executive director Rory Costelloe said Estuary’s new display village at Leopold would “lead the way” for home hunters in the Geelong area. Mr Costelloe said Estuary’s display centre offered a range of designs from a selection of Melbourne’s best-known national and boutique builders. He said the 20-home display village opening marked an “important project milestone” for the Leopold community. The development offered 650 allotments as well as parks and gardens, walking and cycling paths and a proposed five-hectare reserve, he said. “Home sites are currently available in Estuary’s Clovetree Release which is ideally located offering access to Estuary’s community parks and features home sites ranging from 443 to 703 square metres and starting from just $158,900.” “Geelong has recently enjoyed a population boom, and as a result home buyers are now flocking to this region in search of the perfect location to build their dream home. “It’s important that home-hunters have access to the best and most up-to-the-minute home designs and information, so Estuary’s new display village will become a valuable tool for purchasers looking to capitalise on this affordable and accessible region.” Mr Costelloe invited the public to a family fun day on March 19 to launch Estuary’s grand opening.

Buyers urged to apply for firsthome grants otondo Homes is urging Geelong buyers to make the most of the FirstHome Owners Grant before the end of June. First-home buyers are eligible for $7000 as part of the Government’s First-Home Owners Grant system. A building bonus of $13,000 for first-time buyers is also available for newly constructed homes and there is a $6500 bonus for homes built in regional areas, like Geelong. Hotondo Homes’ sales consultant Chad Baker encourages new-home buyers to take opportunity before its end date. “This mean’s if you build a new home in Geelong, you’re eligible to receive $26,500 worth of grants and bonuses towards a new home, making it more affordable,” he says. “It will only be available for contracts signed by the June 30.” Chad says knowing where to start is often the hardest part of building a new home. “Getting into the property market can be a long process, especially if you decide to build. “The first step would be to make an appointment with your local

Hotondo Homes builder, and you can sit down with them and they can walk through the process. He says Hotondo Homes’ franchise system allows local builder to remain independent while benefiting from the resources, buying power and support of a national network. “There are six builders based throughout Geelong, Bellarine and Surf Coast areas, who are more than happy to answer your building questions,” he says. “There are over 90 floor plans to choose from, including a Dream Starter range, which are smaller sized homes ideal for first home buyers. Each floor plan is flexible, and you can change walls and move rooms around to suit your individual needs.” All Hotondo Homes builders also build custom designed homes, Chad says. “Now is the perfect time sit down with a builder and start planning a first home.” More information about FirstHome Owner Grants is available at www.sro.vic.gov.au or contact Hotondo Homes on 1800 677 156.
