A future growth precinct — City of Melton (long-term planning)

Home loans

Finance, explained without the sales pitch.

Bulmans Road has no land for sale, so nothing here is an offer of finance. This is a plain-English guide to how house-and-land lending works in City of Melton when a precinct does come to market.

Pre-approval first

A lender assesses income, debts and deposit before you commit. Pre-approval usually lasts three to six months and can be renewed.

Land settles first

In house-and-land, you typically settle the land, then draw the build contract separately once titles are issued.

Progress payments

Construction loans release funds in stages — slab, frame, lock-up, fixing, completion — and you pay interest only on what's drawn.

Grants & concessions

First-home buyer grants, stamp duty concessions and shared-equity schemes change over time. Confirm current eligibility with the State Revenue Office.

Repayment estimator

Principal-and-interest, indicative only.

Estimated monthly repayment

$3,636

Total repaid over 30 years: $1,308,949

The estimator is a generic mathematical calculation and is not a quote, an offer, or credit assistance. It ignores fees, lenders mortgage insurance, offset arrangements and rate changes.
