Queensland Display Home
Nowadays, times have changed so much that if you’re looking for your dream house, you don’t have to meet with architects and designers and understand their interpretation of your house plan. All you need do is to see as many display homes in Queensland as there are and decide.
What are Queensland display homes?A Queensland display home is fully constructed and used as a model house by builders to show their prospective customers. You can walk into the house and examine everything at close quarters—the doors, door handles, colors of the walls, fittings, rooms, curios, etc.
So, if you’re looking for a house in Queensland, Australia, speak to your estate agents to show you Queensland display homes along the Sunshine Coast or in Brisbane. Once you preview these homes, you can decide on the kind of home you’re looking for.
What to expect: When examining a Queensland display home, see if you approve of its aesthetics. You need also look at the number of bedrooms, kitchen, balconies, garden, backyard, etc and see if the porch and corridors are spacious and well-lit or not. Also, check that the builder or owner of the house has stuck to building construction codes.
See Queensland display homes as good investments:These display homes are considered good investments because of you can lease it back which guarantees you rent quote above the market price. True, your display home will not give you the same rental amount after the lease back period expires, its short term benefits are not to be ignored.
Also, since the tenant is also the builder of the display home and the house has only walk-ins rather than a family in continuous residence, it continues to be in good condition. So, it’s unlikely that the tenants will not keep the house in good shape and if at all they do, the builder can easily repair the damage.
If an investor buys it: When a builder shows a Queensland display home to an investor, the latter buys it and leases it back to the same builder to use in his display village. When builders choose a site to construct residences, it’s usually in areas where there is a big boom for residences. After his residences are fully built up, these builders ask investors to buy property, along with a "lease-back option."
The new owner of the Queensland display home and the builder enter into a lease-back plan for about a maximum of five years. During this period, the builder uses the display home as a model home to show his prospective clients. By this means, the investor receives rent for the entire lease-back term, so it’s no wonder that investors love buying display homes.
- Investors do not have to spend on fittings since developers fit out the home completely.
- Builders are known to add the maximum number of features to the house to attract customers to them. This includes landscaping, flooring, furniture and fixtures, etc. This naturally means that when the house is sold, the investor earns more.
