CRANBOURNE

What house and land packages are available in Cranbourne?

When people talk about Melbourne’s popular green wedge, semi-rural areas such as Cranbourne are what they have in mind. And one of the great things about Cranbourne is that while it has plenty of green space, it also has a great range of community facilities, infrastructure and opportunities for the whole family. The suburb is dominated by the stunning Cranbourne Royal Botanic Gardens, a sprawling native landscape. With great schools, transport routes, sporting facilities and a bustling shopping precinct, it’s no wonder Cranbourne is earmarked as one of Melbourne’s key growth areas into the future. At Metricon, we are proud to be partnering with a number of premier land developers to secure some of the best blocks of land in Cranbourne’s premier estates. You can choose from our Freedom, Designer and HomeSolution house and land packages, for those just starting out, through to those looking for something extra.

Is there stamp duty on house and land packages?

Stamp duty is a tax that is paid on a range of transactions in Victoria, and across Australia. Property attracts stamp duty, as do car sales and registrations, insurance payments and a range of other goods and services. Stamp duty can come as a shock when you buy a home, as it can be a substantial amount. stamp duty is usually calculated as a percentage of the value of the property, however some states and territories have a range of exemptions that it always pays to be aware of. The good news about buying a house and land package in Victoria, is that you won’t have to pay as much stamp duty as someone who buys an existing property of the same value.That’s because in Victoria, stamp duty is only charged on the land portion of house and land packages, not the home. This can save you a lot of money, and is part of the reason why house and land packages are one of the most affordable ways to buy a house. You may also be able to save more if you are a First-Home Buyer. Click here to find out more about that.

How do house and land packages work?

As we mentioned above, house and land packages are one of the cheapest ways to buy a house in Australia. That is partly down to the way stamp duty is calculated, and also because you have the ability to build your home for your family, not compete with others to purchase what you want. Anyone who has been to an auction knows how quickly they can get out of control. At Metricon, we work with developers to create house and land packages in family-friendly estates you will love.
