What house and land packages are available in Clyde North?

Clyde North sits on the green wedge of Melbourne’s south east. And they call it the ‘green wedge’ for a reason.

But it’s not just Mother Nature that makes house and land packages in Clyde North attractive. Less than an hour from the Melbourne CBD, Clyde North is one of the state’s hottest growth areas, close to schools, shops, great transport and everything someone looking for an active lifestyle could want. It really is easy to love where you live if you live at Clyde North, and with our Freedom, Designer, and Home Solution brands, Metricon has a range of house and land packages to suit most Australian budgets.

Do you pay stamp duty on house and land packages?

In Victoria, when you buy land and buildings, you pay stamp duty or land transfer duty, as it is also called. You can also pay stamp duty on other property transactions, such as cars. Stamp duty is payable based on the market value of the property, or the purchase price, whichever is greater. On a house or land purchase, stamp duty can be a significant amount. However the good news is, when you buy a house and land package in Victoria, you only pay stamp duty on the land, if the house is yet to be built. This is a great way to save money, especially if you are a first home buyer as you might be eligible for the First Home Owner Grant, and a further stamp duty concession. Check out our stamp duty calculator to receive an estimate of how much stamp duty you are likely to pay on your block of land.

What you need to know about house and land packages?

House and land packages can be one of the cheapest ways to buy a home. With stamp duty only payable on land, not yet-to-be-built houses, you can save a lot of money. On top of that, construction loans mean you can stage your payments based on agreed building milestones along the way. This can mean saving on mortgage interest, compared to buying an existing house. When you buy a house and land package with Metricon, a lot of the hard work has already been done for you. The last thing anyone wants is to buy a block of land, and then realise their dream home design won’t fit on it. Buying a house and land package removes this risk as our designs are already matched to our blocks of land. We work with developers across Melbourne, including at Clyde North, to offer you some of the best blocks in premium, purpose-planned estates. That’s because we put you first, something we will continue to do once you have purchased your house and land package. We will be with you every step of the way, through the council approvals process and construction. We will also come and inspect your home three months after you have moved in, to make sure everything is how you want it. And don’t forget our lifetime year structural guarantee*.
