Aveling Homes House and Land Packages and Guarantees

Aveling designs and builds single-storey homes, and listed 60 house and land packages when we checked. We couldn’t verify a design count or price range online, so ask for a written quote; its conditions say advertised prices are indicative only and may be subject to site costs.

Through Aveling Invest, it offers dual key homes, house-behind-house, duplex and triplex developments, group dwellings, narrow lot and terrace homes, and specialist developments.

Aveling Homes promotes these guarantees, all with conditions:

  • Price hold: its FAQ describes a 180-day fixed price, provided the home reaches its construction department within that period. Its conditions page describes a nine-month base price hold after signing, absorbing increases up to $15,000, for new clients only and excluding promotional homes
  • Structural: a lifetime structural warranty, according to its FAQ
  • Service: a 12-month service warranty

Its FAQ and conditions page describe the price hold differently. Ask which terms will be in your contract.

 

How Aveling Homes Packages Are Sold

Aveling sells through its display homes and consultants. The pages we checked didn’t name a finance partner or third-party marketers. Ask who is selling you the package and how they’re paid.

What it means for you: when a package is sold through a marketer or investment group, that seller is commonly paid a commission by the builder or developer. That commission is part of the package price, whether or not it’s shown on the contract. Builder commissions can run into tens of thousands of dollars. Here’s how hidden commissions in house and land packages work.
