Industry news
We finished off the 2021 Financial Year strong as we witnessed a rush of sales as a result of the temporary 50 per cent Stamp Duty savings for buyers of newly built homes valued at up to $1 million.
As we move into August, there are still substantial benefits to buying off-the-plan residences, including:
1. Stamp Duty Concessions
Buyers can still take advantage of stamp duty savings for new off-the-plan purchasers worth up to $1 million. This applies to all contracts entered from 1 July 2021 to 30 June 2023.
2. Have more input into the property’s design
With a trend that is seeing more developers showing their agility, buyers will benefit from cooperative, flexible building models that steer away from cookie cutter residential plans and move towards creating homes that are highly bespoke and uniquely ‘yours’.
3. Lock in prices
Another perk of buying off-the-plan means you can secure today’s market rate and potentially enjoy capital growth on your new home as you wait for settlement. What’s more, there is even the potential for an increase in the value of your existing home whilst waiting for your new home to be completed.
