  • Why house & land or off the plan purchases are inferior investments

    Why house & land or off the plan purchases are inferior investments
    2025/12/16

    While many buyers are attracted to the idea of building new, house and land packages often fall short when it comes to long-term investment performance.

    On this episode of the Defence Property Podcast, Discover Buyers Agency’s Kane Dury breaks down why buying off-the-plan or opting for a brand-new house and land package is generally an inferior strategy compared to purchasing established property. Drawing on supply-and-demand fundamentals, land value behaviour, and real examples from markets like Sydney’s eastern suburbs and western Sydney, Kane explains how land scarcity drives true capital growth and why new builds often fail to keep pace.

    Kane also explores the hidden premiums built into new developments, the impact of declining dwelling value over time, and how marketing commissions can inflate purchase prices. With thousands of suburbs across Australia to choose from, understanding these factors is essential to selecting a high-performing investment rather than relying on glossy brochures or sales campaigns.
