Set Your Budget Before you begin your home-building journey, it’s important to understand your financial position. - Speak with your bank or mortgage broker to confirm how much you can borrow. - Obtain pre-approval from your lender to set a clear and realistic budget. ### 2. Find Your Dream Address Now it’s time to choose where you’d love to live. - Explore your preferred Lanser community and research your ideal home design. - Book an appointment with our team to find the perfect block to suit your lifestyle, home design and budget. ### 3. Place Your Block on Hold Found the one? Great! - Remember, blocks aren’t one-size-fits-all. Consider size, setbacks, orientation, and location. - Once you’ve identified your perfect allotment, your Lanser consultant can place it on hold for you. ### 4. Pre-Contract Steps While your block is on hold, you'll need to: - Confirm your chosen allotment with your lender. - Provide your personal details to your Lanser consultant. - Nominate a conveyancer (if you need help, we’re happy to offer guidance). ### 5. Sign Your Contract You're ready to make it official! - Book your contract appointment with our team. - Take time to review your contract and understand your obligations. - Once signed, your block is officially **SOLD**! ![I Stock 1126207275 1024x683](data:image/svg+xml;charset=utf-8,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%272100%27%20height%3D%271400.68359375%27%20style%3D%27background%3Atransparent%27%2F%3E) ### 6. Pay Your Deposit After signing your contract: - A two-day "cooling-off" period applies. - Once this period ends, you'll pay your deposit directly to Lanser. ### 7. Post-Contract Checklist To progress your purchase, you’ll need to: - Ensure your lender provides formal finance approval before the due date in your contract (if applicable). - Sign your mortgage documents with your lender. - Sign the land transfer documents with your conveyancer. ### 8. Settlement Day Settlement timeframes depend on the status of your block: - **Titled allotments**: settlement usually occurs within eight weeks of contract signing. - **Untitled allotments**: settlement typically takes place two weeks after the land titles are issued. On settlement day, you’ll make full payment and the block is officially yours! ### 9. Start Building Time to bring your vision to life! - All Lanser developments have **Urban Design Guidelines** to help protect your investment. - These guidelines apply to your home and landscaping design and can be found on our website and in your contract. - Our team of Urban Design Guideline Advisors is here to help you and your builder every step of the way. ### 10.
