First home buyers flock to Flagstone for affordable housing and an active lifestyle
We’ve long known Flagstone is the place to be - and now new figures have confirmed it.
According to the latest homebuyer data, Flagstone is Queensland’s fastest growing hotspot for young home buyers, and with expansion on the horizon, this is just the beginning. State Treasury data reveals Flagstone recorded the largest number of approved Queensland First Home Buyer Grant applications in 2022-23, with 814 payments made to buyers in the region, totaling $12,211,000 and accounting for 18.5 per cent of all grants. It’s not hard to see why Flagstone is an attractive choice with first home buyers.
Surrounded by bushland, the diverse range of affordable and aspirational housing options are complimented by an active lifestyle, and unparalleled access to essential amenities such as schools, shops, and services. With a tavern just weeks from opening and new development under construction, as well as the Queensland Government’s decision to double the state’s First Homeowner Grant, there has never been a better time to get a foot on the property ladder at Flagstone.
Flagstone Project Director Troy Thompson applauded the new homebuyer statistics.
“In the current climate of a national housing shortage in Australian real estate, Flagstone is crucially important as one of the nation’s largest urban housing release areas,” he said. “
The value on offer at Flagstone gives many families the opportunity to finally own their own home and stands as a testament to the power of community-focused development.
“We are excited for the expansion that is to come and looking forward to welcoming more first home buyers into the Flagstone family.”
Anyone interested in starting their homeowner journey at Flagstone is advised to visit the Flagstone Master Builders Display Village, next to the Flagstone Sales Centre on Flagstonian Drive.
