Builders AVJennings have reported an influx of buyers over recent months at the popular estate, with executive general manager for Queensland, South Australia and New Zealand, Mark Henesey- Smith, putting land sales success down to the 89 per cent increase in home building approvals on the Gold Coast. "It's no secret that the Gold Coast's property industry has slowed down in recent years, but if the latest increase in sales and- according to the AB S home building approvals are anything to go by, the market seems to be shifting," he said. "With house -and -land packages available from just $384,500, buyers are seeing the opportunity to build their dream home in a brand -new community at an affordable price. "When you look at the property market cycle, now is a great time to buy - with interest rates at a record low, a $15,000 government grant available on new homes and competitive pricing on land stock, such as our new lots at Big Sky." Mr Henesey -Smith said while price points had always been an influencing factor in a purchaser's decision, it was important to back good value with a great location, variety of lots and a community lifestyle. He said Big Sky had a total of 43 lots in the stage three release, which were now available from $209,900 to $274,900. "The five lots remaining in the current stage 3A release are titled and ready to build on, with the balance of homesites currently under construction and due to be finished by the end of the year," Mr HeneseySmith said. "Some of the new homesites boast an enviable position facing bushland corridors and extended bike pathways. "It's a really natural, leafy environment with plenty of open space." Mr Henesey -Smith said Big Sky had already secured more than $10 million in sales over the past six months and was proving to be one of the most popular new communities in the northern Gold Coast. "Coomera is one of the Gold Coast's fastest growing areas attracting purchasers who are looking for an affordable property in an emerging area,' he said. "Big Sky residents are already within proximity to schools, shops, parks and entertainment precincts, but over the coming years the number of amenities within reach will multiply in line with the anticipated population growth. "The new Rededge convenience shopping centre is expected to open on December, 16 anchored by an IGA supermarket, with a mix of retails outlets such as a cafe. a selection of food outlets, a hairdresser and a medical centre." As part of the stage three land release, AVJennings is offering a limited number of house and land packages priced from $384,500. For more information, visit avjennings.com.au.
