With Queensland experiencing continued demand for housing supply, buyers are racing to secure their spot in one of Ipswich’s fastest selling communities.

This Saturday 3 February, AVID Property Group’s (AVID) Brentwood Forest community in Bellbird Park will release its final stage of four-bedroom homes built by Villaworld Homes by AVID – HIA Queensland’s Professional Major Builder for 2023 – after having recorded strong interest from savvy buyers eager to get a foothold on the property ladder.

AVID General Manager Queensland Anthony Demiris said Brentwood Forest’s accelerated sales are contributed to the community’s locality and affordability as buyers do not have to compromise on land size and location for price.

“Our final stage of Brentwood Forest represents one of the last opportunities to secure a brand new home in an established community at an affordable price point,” Mr Demiris said.

“Over the past decade, Brentwood Forest has provided a range of housing options including its smaller lot turnkey homes to traditional house and land packages. Buyers today can enjoy our latest collection of spacious, four-bedroom turnkey homes designed to maximise lifestyle.

Brentwood Forest’s final stage offers the next generation of designer homes by Villaworld Homes, featuring four spacious bedrooms, including a master suite with a walk-in robe and ensuite. It also includes an open plan kitchen/dining area with butler pantry, and a double lock-up garage.

“The latest release of homes in this final stage sold out within a matter of days, so we expect demand to only increase as the region continues to expand.”

With an impressive growth rate, Ipswich attracted 6,228 new residents in the 12 months leading up to June 30, 2023. This meant on average, Ipswich welcomed 17 new residents each day1.

Mr Demiris said buyers know that affordable, community-centered housing options of this caliber are simply not attainable in Brisbane’s inner-city suburbs.

“Brentwood Forest is well connected to lifestyle amenities, including the local school Bellbird Park State Secondary College, an early learning centre, shops, medical centres plus an abundance of outdoor amenities – with forest trails, fitness areas and kick-about spaces.

“Buyers can now secure an affordable home in one of Southeast Queensland’s fastest growing areas, and following the Queensland Government’s announcement on doubling the first home buyers grant, we anticipate our final stage to sell out quickly,”

Eligible first-home buyers may be able to access $30,000 under a new scheme that has doubled the first home owner grant. The grant applies towards the purchase or construction of a new house, unit or townhouse valued at less than $750,0002.

In fact, Ipswich recorded one of the strongest uptakes in buyers using the Home Guarantee Scheme, with a total 182 purchases during the 2022-23 financial year3.

“This new boost will be a great leg up for young people trying to get in the property market, especially amid the current cost-of-living crisis.”

Mr Demiris said buyers were also drawn to the financial savings and security of residential communities like Brentwood Forest where the builder – Villaworld Homes – carried the majority of costs until settlement.

“Brentwood Forest’s final stage of completed homes allows buyers to bypass the construction phase and secure the keys to their home sooner,” he said.

“Buyers who purchase at Brentwood Forest have everything they need under one contract – a fixed price, completed home with no hidden costs.”

These completed homes start from $749,000 and with generous frontages of 15 meters or more. All homes come complete with premium finishes, such as stone benchtops, designer appliances and tapware, automatic double lock up garage, and professional landscaping.
