For the first time, prospective off the plan apartment buyers in Sydney's <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/homebush-nsw-2140">Homebush</a> can purchase with the confidence of a 10-year defect protection for their new apartment building.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/bridge-road-residences-homebush-3-5-bridge-road-homebush-nsw-2140">Bridge Road Residences</a>, the latest development by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/ventus-group">Ventus Group</a>, is the first new apartment complex in the area to offer the highly sought-after 10-year Latent Defects Insurance, provided by Resilience Insurance.

This policy, which applies to all 80 apartments in the new building on Bridge Road, covers homeowners against&nbsp;structural or design defects defects that may arise within the first 10 years after the building's completion. It can only be taken out by the developer or builder of the new development, and not by individual apartment owners.

Half of the apartments in the building have already been quickly snapped up. Buyers have been attracted by the insurance policy, along with the guarantee of a quality build, thanks to the insurance's Technical Inspection Service. This service involves third-party experts visiting the construction site at least once a month to ensure the building is being properly constructed, making defects highly unlikely.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=6989 project_image_fid=2132]

Located on Bridge Road, the development offers a mix of apartment configurations, from studios to three-bedroom apartments.

Apartments have been designed&nbsp;by MX Architects with liveability in mind, featuring open-plan layouts, engineered timber floors, wool-blend carpet in bedrooms, and either ducted or split-system air conditioning depending on configuration.&nbsp;

Many apartments also include north-facing aspects or oversized balconies, enhancing natural light and outdoor usability.

The development includes landscaped communal gardens with a central lawn, shaded seating, and barbecue areas. A rooftop terrace offers views across the city and Sydney Olympic Park. These amenities are designed to provide outdoor spaces for both relaxation and socialising, without increasing maintenance burden.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=6989 project_image_fid=2135]

Bridge Road Residences is less than 10 minutes’ walk from Homebush Station and close to major road links including the M4 and M8.&nbsp;

Residents will have immediate access to Rochester Street’s cafes, grocers, and restaurants, as well as retail and dining hubs at North Strathfield’s Bakehouse Quarter, Strathfield Plaza, and DFO Homebush.&nbsp;

The area is also well-served by schools and tertiary institutions, including Homebush Public School and the University of Sydney.

Construction is being led by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/builders/one-way-dc">One Way Development &amp; Construction</a>. They are expecting to complete the build in Q3 2026.

Bridge Road Residences brings 10-year defects guarantee to Homebush

Headland Parade is one of the most premium and tightly held streets in Barrack Point in the Shellharbour region south of Sydney.

Local developer&nbsp;Allowrie snapped up an opportunity to develop four custom-designed townhomes on the exclusive strip, which they recently completed the luxury homes to the design by&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/ingenuity-home-designs">Ingenuity Home Designs</a>.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=150639 project_image_fid=3556]

From the street, the development at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/buildings/12-headland-parade-barrack-point-12-headland-parade-barrack-point-nsw-2528">12 Headland Parade</a>&nbsp;features gabled rooflines, muted coastal palette and landscaped frontages that reflect the enduring character of the area.

Inside, the attention to detail continues across open-plan layouts that flow into private alfresco spaces, with select residences enjoying their own inground concrete swimming pool.

The interiors are defined by their use of thoughtful materials and functional sophistication. 40mm 0% silica stone quartz benchtops, brushed brass tapware, and curved v-groove bathroom cabinetry are paired with Polytec kitchen joinery and Lappato-finished terrazzo tiles to create spaces that feel both premium and relaxed.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=150639 project_image_fid=3550]

Comfort underfoot is achieved through hybrid European oak flooring and extra heavy-duty loop pile carpets in the bedrooms, while ducted reverse-cycle air-conditioning ensures seasonal adaptability.

Each residence includes a garage with epoxy flake flooring, landscaped outdoor areas, and integrated energy-efficient inclusions like 5kW solar photovoltaic systems. These elements reinforce the project’s focus on longevity and liveability, making the homes equally suited to growing families and downsizers alike.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=150639 project_image_fid=3558]

Located 160 metres from Little Lake and 400 metres from Warilla Beach, the address sits within walking distance of the Shellharbour Village café strip, Shellharbour North Beach, and the coastal cycleway.&nbsp;

The Shell Cove Marina precinct is a five-minute drive, and Stockland Shellharbour provides broader retail and medical services nearby. Recreational spaces include Dawes Park, Killalea State Park, and Bass Point.

The four townhomes are move-in ready, and start from $1.25 million.

12 Headland Parade delivers rare new-build coastal homes to Barrack Point

Three of the largest apartments within the Uno building—one of the final opportunities to purchase brand-new property within Brisbane’s transformative West Village masterplan—have been unveiled upon the completion of the striking new building.

Designed by renowned architecture firm Rothelowman, the Uno building is part of The Allere Collection, the penultimate stage in Sekisui House Australia's multi-award-winning West Village neighbourhood. They started transforming the former Peter's Ice Cream factory site back in 2016. Now it's a thriving mixed-use village and one of the most impressive new neighbourhoods in Brisbane.

The three apartments are located toward the top of the Uno building, which was recently completed by Multiplex. Duo, Uno's sister tower, is completely sold out and is set for completion in Q4 2025.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114215 project_image_fid=5703]

The apartments feature four or five bedrooms, with a total internal area ranging from 194 sqm to 347 sqm and an additional 30 sqm to 49 sqm of outdoor space. Interiors draw on classic Italian sensibilities, showcasing a soft palette of pink, beige, cream, and grey marble.

High-end Miele appliances, herringbone floorboards, motorised blinds, and sheer curtains in the living areas complete the luxurious finishes.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114215 project_image_fid=5706]

Residents enjoy access to double rooftop amenities, including a pool, dining and lounge areas, BBQ facilities, a vegetable garden, and pet-friendly spaces.

Uno’s Paw Pavilion provides an off-leash dog area, while Duo will feature a podium-level dog spa.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114215 project_image_fid=5710]

The location is just 800 metres from Brisbane’s CBD, placing residents close to South Bank’s cultural precinct, the Boundary Street dining strip, and a range of highly regarded schools. The broader 2.6-hectare precinct also offers heritage laneways, retail and dining options, commercial spaces, and lush parklands.

The final unveiling at Uno arrives during a period of ongoing undersupply in Brisbane’s premium apartment market, particularly for larger, family-sized residences.

Sekisui House unveils Allere Uno's largest apartments as building completes

Northland Group’s Central Quarter apartment development, located in the heart of Merrylands, ticks every box that buyers consider when purchasing a brand-new apartment.

CQ, currently under construction on Pitt Street, will comprise 194 one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments in the heart of the growing suburb.

<h2>Guaranteed Delivery</h2>

First and foremost is the guarantee of delivery. <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/northland">Northland</a> has only just launched the development, despite being close to topping out the main structure. They progressed well into construction before bringing the project to market, giving buyers confidence that the development is genuinely moving ahead.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=5660 project_image_fid=1674]

<h2>Quality Assurance</h2>

The second — and perhaps most important — consideration for new apartment buyers is not just whether the project will be completed, but whether it will be finished to a high standard. Northland Group is the only developer in Merrylands to take out Resilience Insurance’s Latent Defects Insurance, offering buyers protection from any structural or waterproofing issues for 10 years after completion. Northland also has a vastly experienced construction team, having been building across Sydney for the best part of three decades.&nbsp;

<h2>Prime Location</h2>

The third pillar, which is paramount, is location — and how well the apartment fits into a buyer’s lifestyle. It must be well-connected to both transport and local amenities. <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/central-quarter-merrylands-242-252-pitt-street-merrylands-nsw-2160">Central Quarter</a> occupies a prime site on Pitt Street, right next to the Merrylands Bus Interchange and Merrylands Train Station. This offers direct access to Parramatta, just one stop away, and places the CBD within 35 minutes.

<h2>Amenity-Rich Environment</h2>

While the development is already close to everything Merrylands has to offer, Northland Group is adding further value by delivering 22 new retail tenancies at the base of the building and within the commercial podium. Confirmed tenants include a 24/7 gym operator, a provider for a 111-place childcare centre, and major fast-food retailers.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=5660 project_image_fid=1613]

Residents will also have private access to a rooftop with several breakout spaces, barbecue areas, and a children's playground.

<h2>Thoughtfully Designed Apartments</h2>

With all the above boxes ticked, attention turns to the apartments themselves. Northland has gone above and beyond, offering large floorplans and premium finishes as standard. Kitchens include stone island benches, integrated Smeg appliances (gas cooktop, oven, rangehood, microwave, and dishwasher), and Villeroy &amp; Boch tapware.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=5660 project_image_fid=1607]

Even the small details haven’t been overlooked. The integrated VRF air conditioning system allows for zoned temperature control in each room. Furthermore, each Central Quarter balcony will be built with pedestal tiles allowing for seamless indoor/outdoor living.&nbsp;

<h2>A Decade in the Making</h2>

Central Quarter has been over a decade in the making, with Northland Group securing the site back in 2014. Years of careful planning and design have gone into creating a product that truly suits the area.

With completion expected by early to mid-2026 and interest rates forecast to fall further before then, now is arguably the perfect time to secure a new home at this advanced stage of construction.

[smartcode_project_cta:default project_id=5660]

Why Northland Group’s Central Quarter apartment development ticks every box

High-end retailer Cult Design has signed up to take all of the commercial space, and a large section of the retail space, on the street-level of the upcoming new Fitzroy apartment development, Fitzroy Fitzroy.

Cult Design, which offers&nbsp;premium&nbsp;furniture, lighting and objects from iconic international and local brands, will also furnish the communal areas of the project with Cult’s brands, as well as Cultivate — Cult’s in-house sustainability program that provides buyback, refurbishment, and recycling services — a program that aligns with the project’s efforts to restore and preserve the heritage aspects of the building. Current and future residents will also have the option to purchase a turnkey furnished solution curated by Cult.

Cult has taken&nbsp;the entirety of the project's commercial space, and two of the three retail lots, which will form Cult's new HQ and flagship showroom.&nbsp;

In a further commitment to the building, Cult Design Founder Richard Munao has also bought one of the five terrace homes in the project. DKO’s Director of Interiors &amp; Design Lead for the project, Michael Drescher, has also bought an apartment in the building. The sales highlight the deep alignment between the project’s architectural intent and its growing community of discerning owner-occupiers, including the collaborators themselves.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=14394 project_image_fid=183070]

Dean Lefkos, founder and director of Chapter Group which is developing Fitzroy Fitzroy, said the project is unlike any development he’s seen in terms of its buyer community.

“<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/fitzroy-fitzroy-411-421-smith-street-fitzroy-vic-3065">Fitzroy Fitzroy</a> is a true owner-occupier project; we’ve had best friends, siblings and even cousins purchasing homes, which is truly rare in residential projects these days," Lefkos said.

“The architecture and interiors of Fitzroy Fitzroy genuinely reflect the suburb’s character, with thoughtful design that has clearly resonated with purchasers."

Located on Smith Street and designed by DKO Architecture, Fitzroy Fitzroy sits behind a grand heritage brick facade, once home to MacRobertson’s Garage and Workshop, and reaches nine storeys high, complete with angular rooftops and a chamfered western side to create sunlit internal spaces and generous viewlines.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=14394 project_image_fid=183066]

Originally launching to market with 56 apartments and six terrace homes, Fitzroy Fitzroy will now be home to 52 apartments and five terrace homes following a number of amalgamations. One such purchaser is Michael Drescher, DKO’s design lead on the project, who purchased a three-bedroom apartment.

“I knew the site well, it’s a pocket of Fitzroy I’ve always admired, but it was through designing the interiors and meeting future residents 
that I knew this was a place we could truly call home,” Drescher said.

“I sensed early on that the building would foster a strong sense of community, and that feeling came to life during one of the purchaser events — everyone had the chance to meet their future neighbours, but it felt more like a gathering of old friends coming together.

“At DKO, we invested considerable time in crafting each floor plan with care. From the outset, we anticipated strong interest from owner-occupiers and particularly those already living in the area. The apartment we purchased was always one of my favourite floor plans in the project."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=14394 project_image_fid=1011]

Buyers will have access to resident-only amenities including the Smith Club, with communal bar and dining, private meeting and work-from-home spaces and an expansive, tranquil rooftop garden on level nine, designed by TCL.

Having met with future residents and purchasers, Drescher has developed an understanding of how the residential amenities and rooftop communal spaces will be used and is working with Cult and Chapter Group on furniture selections to suit.

At ground level, an internal laneway connects Smith Street to the residents’ lobby, inspired by the local arcades in Melbourne’s CBD, with Cult’s future corner showroom to be located behind the existing brick facade, with large windows opening onto both Smith Street and Leicester Street.

Limited apartments remain, ranging from $720,000 to over $4 million. Three yet-to-be-released sub-penthouses will launch to market in spring.

It was in 2018 when diversified developer <a data-end="192" data-start="152" rel="noopener" target="_new">Citinova</a> decided to look beyond the Melbourne CBD for their next residential development opportunity.

They were searching for a suburb with little to no new apartment supply—positioning what they would create as a rare opportunity in a location where such offerings had not previously existed.

Their search led them to Greensborough, 17 kilometres northeast of the Melbourne CBD, where it had been years since a new residential development had launched.

Citinova acquired a prime 1,633 sqm site on Poulter Avenue, on the edge of the Greensborough Town Centre and just a stone’s throw from Greensborough Station.

They recently completed Albero, a boutique collection of just 45 one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments. The final few residences are now selling.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=4722 project_image_fid=240437]

Albero stands out thanks to its scale and setting: a mid-rise development nestled among established parklands and within walking distance to the upgraded Greensborough Station, the Main Street retail precinct, and Greensborough Plaza.

Citinova collaborated with Point Architects, InvoDesign, and interiors studio Biasol to deliver Albero, with a design focus inspired by the surrounding natural environment and colour palettes drawn from the Australian bushland.

Apartments feature large balconies, flexible floorplans, and energy-efficient inclusions such as double-glazed windows and rainwater harvesting—elements that align with increasing interest in sustainability.

Shared terraces and upper-level outdoor zones extend the living environment and foster passive interaction between residents, while ground-level landscaping enhances the project’s leafy surroundings.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=4722 project_image_fid=240438]

Greensborough itself is a well-established suburb, now experiencing renewed interest due to its upgraded infrastructure, abundant green space, and steady demographic growth.

The suburb has been identified as a high-priority precinct by the Victorian Government and is forecast to see a 7% population increase by 2027.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=4722 project_image_fid=240441]

Accessibility remains one of Greensborough’s key advantages. Following recent transport upgrades, residents can now walk to the nearby train station and reach Melbourne’s city centre in under 40 minutes. A new pedestrian bridge connects the development to Para Road and the Plenty River Trail, improving walkability and local amenity.

Road connections via Greensborough Road and the Metropolitan Ring Road further enhance mobility to surrounding suburbs, including the airport and inner Melbourne.

The suburb also boasts strong community infrastructure, with multiple schools, healthcare services, and sporting facilities nearby. Public open spaces such as Kalparrin Gardens, Poulter Reserve, and the Plenty River corridor offer a rare mix of urban convenience and natural beauty.

Apartments at Albero are now complete and ready to move in.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/caulfield-north-vic-3161">Caulfield North</a> isn’t short on prestige, but it is short on boutique new apartment developments with spacious floorplans.

Cue Dolce Apartments, the newest development by&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/skylife-group-pty-ltd">Skylife Group</a>, which offers just nine apartments on Hawthorn Road.

Dolce Apartments occupies a coveted position near Caulfield Park, encircled by Melbourne's finest schools, parks, and culinary destinations. Its low-rise form by Metaxas Architects channels timeless design principles, wrapped in a restrained yet luxurious material palette.

Every residence embraces natural light and outlooks, thanks to expansive glazing and thoughtfully arranged floorplans.

Ranging from 80 sqm to nearly 160 sqm internally, with terraces or balconies extending up to 30 sqm, the homes offer a diversity of configurations, from two-bedroom residences to three-bedroom layouts with up to three bathrooms.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=148933 project_image_fid=335511]

The interiors are unified by a calm, light-infused aesthetic. Organic white walls, soft walnut timber joinery, and Aurora Range European Oak flooring are paired with plush carpeted bedrooms, creating a harmonious tactile experience.

The kitchens at LUMA serve both as culinary workspaces and statement design features. Buyers can choose between a lightGlacier Honed or dark Turko Argento natural stone benchtop, with timber-look Polytec Ravine joinery and fluted glass cabinetry providing contrast.&nbsp;

Miele appliances complete the package, tailored to residence size, with premium upgrades for three-bedroom homes including an 80cm induction cooktop and Gen 7000 speed oven.

Bathrooms echo the same sensibility, with natural stone, black EXON fixtures, and frameless glass showers. Select residences offer freestanding baths.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=148933 project_image_fid=335513]

Private outdoor spaces, secure parking, and options for EV charging reflect a practical yet elevated lifestyle focus.

The timing couldn’t be better for the upcoming launch of <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/sydney-house-194-204-pitt-street-sydney-nsw-2000">Sydney House</a>, the newest mixed-use tower in the heart of Sydney’s CBD.

Joint venture partners—Singapore-listed <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/first-sponsor">First Sponsor</a> and Melbourne-based lifestyle developer&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/icd-property">ICD Property</a>, chose to bide their time before launching the project, a redevelopment of the landmark City Tattersalls Building on Pitt Street.

They opted to wait until the complex build was well underway, a project that involves retaining the heritage-listed podium while constructing a soaring 55-storey glass tower above.

Their patience, aimed at instilling market confidence in the project’s delivery, has clearly paid off.

According to Charter Keck Cramer's H2 2024 State of the Market Report, the Sydney apartment market faces a significant supply-demand imbalance with continued population growth paired with limited new supply. The report highlights the post-pandemic impact on the apartment supply pipeline, with many planned projects placed on hold or discontinued, due to the broader construction environment.

Sydney House is more than two years into its construction program.&nbsp;Delivery partner <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/builders/richard-crookes-constructions">Richard Crookes Constructions</a> commenced construction in Q1 2022 and is expected to complete in early 2027.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=12428 project_image_fid=312146]

A recent research report published by CBRE in June 2025 suggests that Australia’s population growth is set to experience continued growth of up to 15 per cent by 2030 supporting the requirement for new housing solutions.

The report highlights that the Sydney apartment supply over the next five-year period is forecast at 12,200 dwellings per annum with a demand forecast requirement of 30,000 dwellings. This suggests that demand for new apartments in central Sydney is expected to exceed supply for years to come, poising the market for a period of growth.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=12428 project_image_fid=350621] 
&nbsp; 
SRM Residential Partner and former CBRE Director, Tim Rees says that around 80 per cent of ‘right-sizer’ purchasers seek a property that’s easier to maintain.

"Approximately half see this as part of their retirement plan, and 40 per cent do so as they want the proceeds of their former home for other things," Rees says.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=12428 project_image_fid=350623]

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/sydney-house-194-204-pitt-street-sydney-nsw-2000">Sydney House</a> will comprise 241 premium apartments above a new 135-room boutique hotel.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/bvn-architecture" target="">BVN</a>&nbsp;Architecture has led the design of the tower, which will rise above the retained heritage podium. That podium, to be carefully restored by FJC Studio, will house a collection of high-end hospitality venues once complete.

Rees says that&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/sydney-house-194-204-pitt-street-sydney-nsw-2000">Sydney House</a> will be&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/sydney-nsw" target="">Sydney</a>&nbsp;CBD’s newest icon, blending modern architecture with historic grandeur located in one of the most prestigious enclaves of the CBD.&nbsp;

“Pitt Street is arguably the most significant street in all of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/sydney-nsw" target="">Sydney</a>," Rees says.

"Just a stone’s throw from Circular Quay, The Opera House, Hyde Park and Darling Harbour,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/sydney-house-194-204-pitt-street-sydney-nsw-2000">Sydney House</a> offers seamless connection with the CBD and beyond.

<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developments/clifton-hill-vic-3068">Clifton Hill</a>'s tightly held property market has seen little new development in recent years, with apartments making up just 25 per cent of the suburb’s housing stock.&nbsp;

<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/33-queens-parade-clifton-hill-33-queens-parade-clifton-hill-vic-3068">33 Queens Pde</a> stands out as the first major residential project in the region in years.

Situated between two major green spaces, Edinburgh Gardens to the west and Darling Gardens to the east, 33 Queens Pde will introduce 32 residences to the area, including two and three-bedroom apartments, six townhouses, and two luxury penthouses.&nbsp;

The project is being developed by <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developers/prime-edition">Prime Edition</a>, a boutique developer with a track record of delivering quality homes in premium Melbourne suburbs, including Toorak, South Yarra, and Surrey Hills.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134228 project_image_fid=322175]

Designed by award-winning architecture firm <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/architects/cera-stribley-architects">Cera Stribley</a>, the development emphasises light-filled, open-plan living spaces.&nbsp;

Floor-to-ceiling windows maximise natural light across all apartments, while each home is designed to connect seamlessly with private outdoor spaces, whether a balcony, courtyard, or rooftop terrace.

Kitchens are fitted with Miele appliances, natural stone benchtops and splashbacks, timber laminate cabinetry, and custom shelving. The master bedrooms feature walk-in robes and en-suites, and additional bedrooms are generously sized with their bathrooms.

Beyond the individual apartments, residents at 33 Queens Pde will have access to a communal landscape with an open-air atrium, along with modern facilities such as rainwater harvesting, smart parcel lockers, electric vehicle (EV) charging stations, bike storage with a repair station, and pet-washing facilities.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134228 project_image_fid=305765]

Situated between Edinburgh Gardens and Darling Gardens, residents are also perfectly positioned to enjoy the best of Clifton Hill’s green spaces.

The area is well-served by public transport, with easy access to the tram on Route 86, connecting to key destinations like Fitzroy, Northcote, and the Melbourne CBD. Clifton Hill Station is just 700 meters away, providing a quick commute into the city.

The location also puts residents on Queens Parade, the main retail strip in Clifton Hill, so residents are walking distance to groceries, cafes, restaurants, medical and recreational opportunities. The vibrant café and retail precincts of Smith Street and Brunswick Street are also nearby.

Additionally, the development is conveniently located near educational institutions, with Collingwood College and Fitzroy High School within easy reach.

Demolition of the former commercial building on the prime 1,540 sqm Queens Parade site will commence shortly, with construction starting soon after.

Residential developer <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/fyve">FYVE</a> is the latest to offer unparalleled confidence to apartment purchasers, securing the sought-after Latent Defects Insurance (LDI) for their new Gosford project, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/serenity-by-fyve-54-56-donnison-street-west-gosford-nsw-2250">Serenity by FYVE</a>.

The boutique development, comprising just 34 apartments, is one of only two new projects on the Central Coast to offer LDI, a 10-year insurance policy that protects buyers against defects that may arise post-completion.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=88991 project_image_fid=3250]

FYVE Development Manager Dennis Nie said the decision was about delivering maximum assurance to purchasers.

"We wanted to send a clear message to buyers: we back our ability to deliver quality projects that stand the test of time, and we’re backing that promise with an insurance policy that offers real peace of mind when buying off the plan or new apartments."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=88991 project_image_fid=3252]

According to Nie, early feedback indicates the LDI is strongly resonating with buyers.

"It’s a game-changer for the consumer, and as a developer who takes quality construction seriously, it was an easy decision for us to offer LDI on our Serenity project. Insurers selectively offer LDI to developers and builders that they determine as trustworthy and with the credentials and experience to deliver quality buildings to a standard expected by consumers."

Serenity is currently under construction on Donnison Street, adjacent to Waterview Park and near Brisbane Water. It’s just a seven-minute walk to the Gosford CBD, with Sydney accessible in around an hour by train or car.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=88991 project_image_fid=3247]

To further strengthen buyer confidence, FYVE waited until the project was approximately 70 per cent complete before launching it to market.

"We understand that buying off the plan can be a daunting experience for some purchasers and the best way to allay those concerns is to see progress on site," Nie said. "We’re well advanced in construction, and buyers can already see the building’s facade nearing completion." He added that FYVE’s status as an iCIRT-rated developer supports their strong track record and reputation for delivery.

Looking ahead, FYVE is preparing to bring several new projects to market, turning its attention closer to Sydney with upcoming sites in Miranda, Northbridge and Rose Bay. These new apartments will be tailored to local owner-occupiers and downsizers, highlighting Fyve’s ability to produce quality apartments at all segments of the value spectrum.
