Buying a house and land package can be a smart and convenient way to secure your dream home, especially in a competitive market like Perth. With land availability becoming increasingly scarce and prices continuing to rise, it’s more important than ever to make a well-informed decision. House and land packages offer a seamless and hassle-free experience, combining the security of owning land with the excitement of building a custom home. In this guide, we’ll explore the tips and key considerations to help you find the perfect package that aligns with your lifestyle and future plans.

 

Understand Your Needs and Lifestyle

Think about your current family size and whether it may change in the future. Are you planning to grow your family or have relatives live with you? Do you enjoy outdoor entertainment or need space for a home office? Your home design should match your lifestyle preferences. The home you choose should meet not only your immediate needs but also your future requirements. Don’t choose style over functionality! We are here to help you find a balance between aesthetic appeal and practicality.

For example, if you’re a young professional, you might prioritise proximity to public transport and entertainment hubs, while a growing family may need easy access to schools and parks. Additionally, consider whether you’ll need extra space in the future, such as an area for aging parents or converting a room into a home office. Building a home that accommodates future changes will save you from the need for major renovations down the line.

 

Set a Realistic Budget

When it comes to house and land packages, it is very important to understand what is included in the price. Setting a realistic budget includes ongoing expenses like utilities, maintenance, as well as insurance fees. Besides the initial cost of the package, it’s essential to consider potential upgrades and extras that may not be included. For instance, landscaping, fencing, or premium flooring might be additional expenses.

At 101 Residential, our turnkey packages are designed to minimise these uncertainties by including essential features upfront, ensuring transparency and simplifying the budgeting process. This approach allows you to have a clear picture of your financial commitment from the start.

  

Location, Location, Location

Location is key when choosing your house and land package. Whether you are looking for a vibrant city life, peaceful suburb, or coastal area, at 101 Residential we carefully select prime locations in Perth to offer our clients the perfect house and land package to suit their needs. Do you want to be close to schools, public transport, or medical facilities? It’s important to choose a location that suits your lifestyle. We recommend researching the area’s development plans as future growth can boost the long-term value of your property.

When evaluating locations, consider how the area may develop over the coming years. For example, proximity to planned infrastructure projects, like new transport links or commercial hubs, can significantly increase the value of your property. In addition, being close to amenities like parks, recreational centres, and shopping areas can enhance your lifestyle and make your property more attractive if you decide to sell or rent it out in the future.
