First-time
homeowners have a variety of options– from renting a home, to
buying a listed home, to building a new one. When you have the
financial capabilities, you would find that building your home offers
a myriad of benefits. Here are the three main advantages of building
a home:
You can receive
government assistance
The
Western Australian government awards the First Home Owner Grant
(FHOG) worth $10,000 to prospective homeowners who will buy or build
their first home. The total value of the house must not exceed
$750,000 or $1,000,000, depending on its location. Other eligibility
criteria for FHOG are listed by the Department of Finance.
You
can assess the land's conditions and maximise its features
When
you select land, you can check the location’s accessibility to
services and facilities, such as your work, shops, schools,
transportation, etc. You can see whether the general utilities are in
place, including the water and sewage systems, electricity, and
telephone connections.
You
can also determine the best orientation for your house with regard to
the land’s location. The house can be built toward where the sun
sets or rises, where the view of the river is, away from traffic
noise, etc.
You have several
choices of existing house designs
Professional
builders offer plenty of house and land packages in Perth, including
award-winning designs. These existing layouts can be tweaked
according to your preferences and requirements. With the help of
construction experts, these blueprints can eventually materialise
into your dream home.
