Purchasing Land

When buying land, size and sale price are just the beginning. Digging deeper reveals that not all sections are created equal. What's below the surface and nearby will significantly impact your home's construction time, cost, and future value. While you may have specific size requirements, preferred areas, and a budget, consider these additional factors:

Building Covenants: These rules govern the size and style of homes that can be built, ensuring neighboring properties match your home's standard and help maintain its value.

Future Developments: Consider how the area will evolve over the next five to ten years. New homes on newly developed land often bring significant changes.

Local Amenities: Check for nearby shops, hospitals, schools, and public transport. Even if these amenities aren't available now, future plans can add value.

Protected Trees: In established areas, protected trees may pose future challenges if they encroach on your home.

Choosing a section allows you to start from scratch and create a home that reflects your lifestyle and preferences. Make informed decisions to ensure your home stands the test of time.

Across the country, the Jennian Homes franchises have long-lasting relationships with land developers and owners. The benefit of these relationships goes directly to you. We have the inside knowledge and know when land becomes available to the market, which enables us to maximise your opportunity to purchase the best possible land available for your budget and personal requirements.

We can help you identify which services - such as water, sewage, gas and power - are already connected to the site. When considering sections of similar size and price, development costs and ease of access for construction could be the difference. It's important to know if the land you're considering can sustain the home you want. A geo-tech report will tell you the stability of the soil and a geographical survey will reveal the lay of the land.

Our homes are built on standard, surveyed, well-engineered sites. When we design house and land packages, we create the best combination of home design and site, to meet your personal and family requirements.

Already have your eyes on a piece of land to build your new home? We are happy to help you navigate and facilitate your introduction to the right people, to prepare the site for construction and create the home design that fits! 

If you already own land, or are looking to subdivide we can organise a free site assessment with our experts to help maximise building on your section. We can advise on what options are possible for you based on your section size and zoning.

From feasibility assessment and land surveying - assessing all the issues that could affect building, helping you design your dream home, arranging various council consents, to ultimately carrying out the physical build and adding all the infrastructure. Jennian Homes can help make the subdividing process easy and manage the entire project for you.
