Mason Quarter Townhomes: Your Guide to Buying Off the Plan

Written by Cedar Woods | 02 August 2024

 

Whether you’re a first home buyer, investor, or empty nester, buying a townhome in Wollert off the plan can offer significant advantages. An off-the-plan property is one that will be built and completed in the future according to a predetermined design. Like any property purchase, it's essential to weigh the pros and cons while considering your unique circumstances and goals.

One major benefit of buying off the plan at Mason Quarter is that you don't have to deal directly with the builder or architect – we handle everything for you. Now that you have a better understanding of what it means to buy off the plan, here are some of the top benefits of purchasing your new home this way.

Choosing a Community

Buying off the plan opens up the perfect opportunity to secure real estate in a thriving, well-located community at an affordable price.

Nestled among majestic river red gums in the exciting new suburb of Wollert, Mason Quarter offers the chance to create the life you want for your family. This diverse, welcoming community has everything you need at your doorstep - retail, dining, schools, and convenient transport options. Designed for healthy, connected living, Mason Quarter is the ideal place to put down roots and enjoy all that the area has to offer.

Maintenance time and costs

Older properties often come with maintenance costs and issues that require time, effort, and money to fix. In contrast, buying a Mason Quarter townhome off the plan can save you on maintenance, as everything is brand new and comes with a structural warranty. This warranty ensures peace of mind and reduces the need for ongoing upkeep.

For those who value minimal maintenance, a Mason Quarter townhome is an excellent option to consider. With everything brand new and a structural warranty in place, you can enjoy your home without the hassles often associated with older properties.

Lock in your price

Having a set price locked in can be a great advantage if you need certainty and to avoid budget blow-outs. An off the plan property with a predetermined design means you’ll know exactly what you are signing up to. Plus, you might enjoy some market growth in the time between contract signing and your new property being complete!

Ready to rent

If you are an investor, buying off the plan can be a great way to ensure that your new purchase is rent-ready and appeals to a range of potential tenants. New homes will be built in line with the latest building codes and standards, meaning that you can start putting your property to work and earning rental income sooner.

Government grants and concessions

For an extra boost, you might be eligible for considerable savings on stamp duty or government grants, which are often available for new builds including off the plan properties. Click here to check your entitlements.
