Thousands of house-hunters are flocking to the North West’s newest builder display village at The Ponds since its official opening in July last year.
Over four hundred people are visiting the display village each month which showcases fifteen modern architecturally designed housing types.
“Visitor numbers have been outstanding. Since the introduction of the Federal Government’s First Home Owner Boost scheme in October last year, Landcom has experienced a surge in visitor numbers to the display village,” said Robert Sullivan, Landcom’s General Manager Corporate Marketing.
“First homebuyers, families, young couples and retirees have been captivated by the new designs on offer at the village. Homebuyers are visiting The Ponds sales office first to purchase a parcel of land and then picking a new home in the display village.”
“The opportunity to buy in a new suburb, choose from a wide range of lots and live beside an 80 hectare nature reserve has helped push land sales. In fact, The Ponds hit a record of 51 sales during the month of March.” he added.
