6 reasons to build your own home
Are you at a crossroads and trying to decide whether to build your own home or purchase an established property? We get it – taking the leap into the property market is among one of life’s biggest decisions, and there are a few things to consider.
So, why is building a new home a popular choice? That’s a great question! We’re here to give you the inside scoop on what makes building a home so special to help you weigh up if it’s the right choice for you.
Make your house, your home
One of the biggest wins about building a home is you can choose a home design filled with everything you value. With a large range of home designs available, you can prioritise the areas that suit your lifestyle and needs. Whether that’s having a theatre room to wind down, an activity room for the kids or an alfresco for entertaining, the choice is there. Plus, there’s no stressful reno in sight!
Loving your location
It’s so important to love where you live, and having that choice makes life just that little bit sweeter! Often an established home might be in a great location, but you’ll have to compromise on an older home that’s not built specifically for what you need. Build your home in a community you love and be surrounded by likeminded people, growing families and new amenities.
When we say it’s NEW, we mean it
We quite literally build homes from the ground up, meaning you will be the first one to live in your home! Your home and appliances are all brand new, so you don’t have to think about the wear and tear that you may find in a pre-loved home. The best part? There are warranties in place to give you peace of mind. This covers appliances and a 25-year Structural Guarantee on your home too. Plus, as a new homeowner, you’ll receive a 12-month service repair period. Double win!
Money matters
When building your own home, there are some great savings to be had when you take into consideration fees such as stamp duty. If you’re a first home buyer, you may also be entitled to the epic $10,000 First Homeowners Grant from the government*. Not to mention, some land developers include great packages such as boundary fencing and front landscaping for homebuyers. Talk about bang for your buck!
Designed by you, for you
Choosing the selections for your home is a fun and incredibly rewarding experience. It’s one of the reasons why building a home is so exciting, you are designing YOUR dream home and not inheriting someone else’s mustard carpet! From the exterior features to interior finishes, you’ll get to pick from our market-leading builder inclusions and make your home uniquely yours. There’s a huge amount included in the price, and you can make it your own at Home Collective.
Celebrating the experience
From choosing selections that are uniquely yours, to watching your dream home take shape, to tucking your child in for the first time in their new bedroom, building a home is an incredibly gratifying process. It calls for attention and consideration, but it’s also one of the most thrilling experiences a person can have. It’s a time filled with choices, achievements, and milestones – both significant and minor – and we’re here to share in your joy and celebrate every step of the way!
When it comes to the age-old question, should I build or buy established, the decision is yours.
New homes come with lots of benefits, and they’re worth waiting for. Sure, you’ll have to wait for the home to be built, but with a tonne of benefits in design and interior choices, you’ll know exactly what you’re paying for – no surprises once you move in. It’s clear to see why thousands of Celebration Homeowners have chosen to build their own home. Hear from over 1,300 real homeowners on their experience.
