VIDEO: Flaxmere development provides opportunity for first home buyers.

 

First-home buyers are taking up the opportunity to get on the property ladder, quickly buying sections at the new Tarbet St subdivision that’s been created in Flaxmere.

The completion of the first, infrastructure stage of the development was celebrated on-site yesterday (20th April), ahead of the construction phase beginning.

17 sections have been designed for first-home buyers on the 1.8ha site. They must live in the home they build for at least five years, which means developers can’t land-bank the sections.

The homes must have at least three bedrooms, have an attached garage, have a colour-steel roof and aluminium joinery, and paths and driveways must be paved.

Three sections have been sold, four sections have agreements pending, and there have been expressions of interest for nine sections, with a deadline of April 23 to confirm.
