Advantages of Building Your Investment Property
One of the big benefits to building your investment property is that because your home is brand new, you’re unlikely to have significant maintenance costs for a while. With Homebuyers Centre, you’ll get a 25 year structural guarantee and a six month maintenance period for all new homes. When you’re buying an established investment home, a building report will help you identify any issues prior to purchase but once you own the home any structural, maintenance or pest control issues will be your responsibility paid out of your pocket.
Another plus side to building is that you get to tailor the design accordingly in line with what you think prospective tenants will want. As a building company, we can help you make these decisions to ensure your property will be appealing – whether you have specific tenants in mind based on the location you’re building or your desired tenants – or simply for mass appeal.
We think a brand new home is also likely to attract a higher quality tenant, who may be more likely to pay more for a lovely new home and treat your property with respect and care.
Our finance partners at Resolve also have access to investment loans that require a low 5% deposit, which frees up that cash to spend elsewhere.
HBC Go
Our HBC Go range of fast and affordable home designs is an ideal option for investment opportunities.
Created to streamline the preconstruction process, our HBC Go range offers a selection of home designs, all based of our most popular selling homes. Then, instead of spending time and money agonizing over the internal selections of your home, we have 6 colour scheme you can choose from.
These have been expertly designs by our Interior Decorator, Tarina Wood, of @Oh.Eight.Oh.Nine, and are all based on 6 of our most popular display homes, which you can easily view thanks to our virtual tour options. HBC Go can even shave 2-4 weeks off your building journey as it’s designed to simplify the preconstruction timeframe. It’s just one of the reasons we call the range fast and affordable!
First Home Buyers Grant & Investment Homes – How It Works
Thanks to the WA State Government, first home buyers who are looking to build their first home or investment property have access to the First Home Owner Grant (FHOG). This is a one-off payment from the State Government of ten thousand dollars. The grant is genuine, meaning you don’t have to repay it. There are some requirements to qualify for the grant.
To qualify for the First Home Owner Grant, you will need to:
- Be over 18 years of age
- Be an Australian citizen or permanent resident
- Start living in your home within 12 months of completion. Once you’ve moved in and started living in your home, you must live there as your principal place of residence for a continuous period of at least six months.
- Have never owned a residential property in Western Australia or anywhere else in Australia
- Have never received the grant anywhere in Australia before
If you’re looking to get into the property market, this grant offers an opportunity.
For those who want to live in a particular area of for work or lifestyle, you can use the First Home Owners Grant to build your first property, and once you’ve met the requirements, you could rent out the property and move closer to your desired area. It’s basically like “rentvesting”.
First homebuyers will also have access to stamp duty concessions. Those eligible for the First Home Owner Grant (FHOG) will receive a concessional rate of transfer duty if the property or house & land package is below a certain threshold.
