Geraldton Heights Estate Reveals the Advantages to House and Land Packages

Geraldton real estate team provides the answer as to why buying a house and land in a package is a great idea.
Geraldton, WA, 8 May 2014 - Moving to a new area in a new home is an exciting time for many people. When people are moving into a new house though, there are choices that they have to make. Along with all of the smaller decisions such as the specific functions and aesthetics of the home, two of the biggest questions are: should they buy an already standing home or build a new one? Should they buy land to go with the home?
 
In general, there are a number of advantages as to both why a person should build a new home from scratch and why they should purchase a house and land package. Both of these options give the new homeowner more control over what they will be living in and how they can customise the area to suit their styles.
 
To provide more information on this subject, Madeleine McErlain, Marketing Manager of 4Land Property Group, speaks about how building a new home gives more power to the new homeowner.
 
“While buying an already existing home has its place, such as when the person wants everything that the design already offers, building a new home from the ground up is generally the preferred option. This is primarily because the person can then customise the house however they’d like, designing it perfectly to fit their needs and style.”
 
She continues by naming some of the new technology that can be added into homes too which would be costly in an older home.
 
“When you build a new home, you can include all of the new technology, such as proper cabling and outlets as well as energy efficient air conditioning and appliances. These will not only save you money in the long run, but they are also hard to put into older homes, but easy when the home is being built.”
 
Ms McErlain then goes on to explain the advantages to buying house and land packages and how they can be a good option for investors.
 
“If you’re an investor, then a house and land package is a practical option for you. New homes are far more attractive to tenants and you can customise them according to what you think would attract your ideal tenant. Since modern homes are built using quality materials and reliable techniques, you can charge premium rent and get a higher return on investment.”
 
She expands further on the idea that buying house and land packages is better than purchasing each separately.
 
“Purchasing a package is more convenient for you can get both the house and the land under one contract. This means easier management, less paperwork and less confusion. In addition, by buying the two together, you can find deals that save you money immediately and over time, while it would cost more money to buy each on their own.”
 
McErlain concludes by stating her company’s role in providing house and land packages in the Geraldton area.
 
“We at 4Land have many different options for house and land packages in various locations, such as the beautiful city of Geraldton as well as Perth metropolitan areas. You can build your own new house in the perfect area and on perfect land and call it home.”
