AND THIS IS WHERE IT GETS SERIOUS Think you'll build instead? Run the numbers first. It is now 44.8% more expensive to build a new house than it was before COVID. The average cost of building a detached house has risen 62% since 2019 and construction costs are forecast to rise a further 4-6% nationally in 2026, with Melbourne expected to see another 4% increase on top of that. Factor in labour, materials, and trades, and total construction costs for a custom home build could run up to 15% higher again compared to just twelve months ago. That's before delays, variations, and the months, sometimes years of your life you won't get back. This home is already built. Already finished. Move in ready. FOR THE UPSIZER: Your family has outgrown your current home, and you know it. The window to upsize into a Balwyn North address while holding your existing property's CGT-free gains is open right now. Don't wait until build costs eat your equity advantage. FOR THE INVESTOR: A quality established home in a blue-chip school zone, in a suburb where demand structurally outstrips supply - that's the formula. And you're acquiring it at a time when your competition is being priced out of building anything comparable. FOR EVERY BUYER: The family home remains Australia's most powerful tax-free asset. No CGT on your primary place of residence. With recent federal changes tightening tax treatment across shares, superannuation, and trusts, the PPOR exemption has never been more valuable.
