All care has been taken to ensure the home design shown is suitable for the advertised lot however design and specification are subject to shire and developer approvals.

Land Prices

Pricing and availability are correct at the time of listing, WA Country Builders does not own the lot and the owner of the lot reserves the right to alter the prices.

Prices do not include stamp duty, registration fees and any other fees or charges relating to the purchase of land. Purchasers will need to pay these fees and charges separately. The price is subject to adjustments under the land contract, including rates and land tax.

Purchasers will need to enter into a sales contract with a representative operating under the guidance and control of a real estate agent on behalf of the owner of the land and a separate contract with WA Country Builders for the construction of the house.

House Prices

The price shown is based on WA Country Builders standard specifications and the inclusions for the house as nominated by WA Country Builders. The price may be subject to exclusions such as site establishment costs, landscaping, fencing and any other identified exclusions.

Alterations may be required to an advertised house to ensure it is compatible with a site specific analysis which includes, but is not limited to, a site survey and a soil classification report. Further site specific requirements may include State or Local Government requirements and developer covenants applying to the land. These alterations may increase the cost of construction.
