Buying a brand-new home is often associated with a protracted wait while the development is under construction. But that doesn’t have to be the case.Â
In Victoria, the state that is closer than any other to meeting its home-building targets, there are scores of new communities that are nearly finished and due for completion by the end of the year.
That means that buyers could be living in a new apartment with spectacular views of inner-city Melbourne, lush parklands, iconic tourist destinations, or beloved local landmarks by Christmas.Â
The following apartments and townhouses located across Victoria’s capital are well underway, with expected completion dates by the end of 2025 – which is essentially the timeframe a buyer would be looking at if currently hunting in the existing market.
So forget making someone else’s home your own. These brand-new builds are waiting for their first ever residents – and as a bonus, buyers also qualify for Victoria’s stamp duty savings scheme on new constructions.Â
