First-home buyers are pulling back on new builds, according to NAB’s latest Residential Property Survey.
“But because of the challenge of rents going up, would involve some short-term sacrifices like going back to house sharing or potentially moving back in with parents to avoid increased rental costs.” With ongoing concerns for other builders around the state, there are also fears buyers’ concerns could further erode the pipeline of new construction and put a further strain on the struggling industry.“Buying and building a new home at the moment has become a bit more daunting with the collapse of some big name builders,” Ms Lunardi said.
Opposition home ownership and housing affordability spokeswoman Jess Wilson said the state government needed to provide certainty to Victoria’s construction sector “to ensure new homes can continue to be built and first-home buyers have the best opportunity to own their own home”.
