Enfield may be home to fewer than 3,000 residents, but its prime location between Strathfield and Burwood has cemented its status as one of the Inner West’s hidden gems.

The suburb offers a village-style lifestyle with an abundance of cafés, restaurants, and boutique shops, staples of Inner West living.

At the last census, there were only around 300 apartments in the suburb. Fewer than a handful of new apartment developments have been delivered in recent years, but none are as well positioned as The Carlyle, just a three-minute walk to Henley Park, arguably one of the best parks in the area.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/the-carlyle-enfield-164-liverpool-rd-enfield-nsw-2136">The Carlyle</a> will comprise 32 one- and two-bedroom apartments, a mix rarely seen in the new development market across Sydney.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/project-marketer/ray-white-projects-western-sydney">Ray White Projects WS</a>&nbsp;is fielding enquiry from several buyer types.

"First home buyers are realising this is the best time to get into the market," says Mark Bernberg, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/project-marketer/ray-white-projects-western-sydney">Ray White Projects WS</a>&nbsp;Managing Director.

"There are now several government incentives assisting first home buyers to get onto the property ladder. The recent announcement to waive lender's mortgage insurance for those with low deposits puts tens of thousands back in their pockets. Pair that with stamp duty savings in the new apartment space, and there has never been a better time to be a first home buyer in the off the plan apartment market."

Bernberg has also seen a re-emergence of investors, attracted to the low supply of apartments in Enfield and the suburb's lifestyle, while also being on the fringe of Burwood, which is set to undergo a huge transformation with its recent rezoning around the new metro station.

"That will bring a wealth of new retail and amenity to the area, which tends to drive prices higher," Bernberg says.

"Rents are at record highs, and with interest rates coming down from the highs earlier this year, investment apartments are starting to stack up again financially."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=148733 project_image_fid=6665]

The Carlyle apartments will sit above doorstep amenity, with a two-level retail podium incorporated into the striking building. The retail component will include a new ground-floor café facing Carlyle Street.

Two-bedroom apartments range from 67 sqm to 83 sqm internally, with some of the larger residences on the top level featuring expansive wraparound balconies. These layouts are designed to enhance seamless indoor-outdoor living, maximising natural light and views.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=148733 project_image_fid=6666]

The Carlyle's proximity to Henley Park is one of its biggest drawcards. The 13-hectare park includes multiple sports fields, two fenced playgrounds designed for various age groups, and Enfield Aquatic Centre, complete with Olympic-sized swimming pool.

The Carlyle is on track to welcome residents in early 2026.

The Carlyle in Enfield launches to undersupplied Inner West market

A new Metro stop, a thriving café scene, and proximity to village-style retail have cemented St Leonards as one of the Lower North Shore’s most sought-after suburbs for new development.

Among those seizing the opportunity is Sekisui House Australia, which has chosen this prized pocket, in the St Leonards South precinct, for its first-ever inner-city apartment project, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/waterstone-st-leonards-24-berry-road-st-leonards-nsw-2065">Waterstone</a>.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134191 project_image_fid=230]

Set for completion in the summer of 2027, Waterstone comprises 207 apartments across five buildings, designed to look south back to the&nbsp;Sydney&nbsp;CBD.&nbsp;The new project offers residents the rare balance of connected urban living and tranquil green surrounds.

Just moments from home lies Smoothey Park, a blend of natural bushland and manicured parkland. It forms part of the Wollstonecraft cluster of reserves, including Gore Cove, Badangi Reserve, and Berry Island, all offering peaceful escapes on the Harbour’s edge.

When it comes to lifestyle, St Leonards and its neighbouring suburbs, Crows Nest, Waverton, Greenwich, and Wollstonecraft, deliver an endless array of cafés, restaurants, and boutique retailers. Nearby Mall 88, only 650 metres from Waterstone, adds convenience with over 30 specialty stores.

Connectivity is another major drawcard. The new Crows Nest Metro Station is just one kilometre away, while St Leonards Train Station is a short seven-minute walk. For a more scenic commute, the Greenwich Point Wharf ferry reaches Circular Quay in under 30 minutes.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134191 project_image_fid=351953]

For peace of mind, Royal North Shore Hospital, one of Sydney’s most prominent medical hubs, sits just 650 metres away, making Waterstone ideal for healthcare professionals or residents seeking easy access to world-class medical facilities.

Perfectly positioned on the fringe of vibrant activity yet embraced by parkland serenity, Waterstone offers the best of both worlds in Sydney’s evolving Lower North Shore.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/mirvac">Mirvac</a> has marked the topping out of Prince &amp; Parade in Brunswick, celebrating the completion of the building’s highest point and a major step forward for one of the developer’s landmark Melbourne communities.

The milestone forms part of Mirvac’s strong construction momentum across Victoria, with <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/prince-parade-by-mirvac-brunswick-701-park-street-brunswick-vic-3056">Prince &amp; Parade</a> and The Albertine both recently reaching structural completion. Together, the two projects will deliver 265 new apartments, contributing to much-needed housing supply in Melbourne’s inner suburbs.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=4802 project_image_fid=3627]

Designed in collaboration with <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/bates-smart">Bates Smart</a>, Prince &amp; Parade continues a long-standing partnership that has delivered The Melburnian (2002) and The Eastbourne (2019).

The new <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/brunswick-vic-3056">Brunswick</a> address comprises a mix of one to four-bedroom residences complemented by extensive amenity, including a residents’ lounge, shared dining room and kitchen, library, yoga room, gym, and rooftop terrace, with landscaping by Jack Merlo and a concierge service.

Construction is rapidly transforming the site, with significant milestones achieved across two buildings, supported by 73 slab pours and six fully constructed building cores. Completion is expected in 2026.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=4802 project_image_fid=269383]

Mirvac’s General Manager, Residential Development Victoria, Elysa Anderson said Prince &amp; Parade has been strongly received by buyers seeking quality design and trusted delivery.

“These communities have been well received, attracting strong interest from downsizers and professionals who value high-quality design, premium locations and the confidence of buying with Mirvac,” Anderson said.

Prince &amp; Parade has also achieved a record-breaking apartment sale in Brunswick, underscoring its design quality and market appeal.

“We’re incredibly proud to see Prince &amp; Parade set a new benchmark for Brunswick.

Prince & Parade tops out in Brunswick as Mirvac marks dual Melbourne milestones

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/mirvac">Mirvac</a> has celebrated the topping out of The Albertine, marking the completion of the 14-storey structure on the edge of Melbourne’s CBD and signalling strong progress across the developer’s Victorian pipeline.

The milestone forms part of Mirvac’s $7.4 billion Victorian development portfolio, which includes both residential and mixed-use projects such as Prince &amp; Parade in Brunswick, which also reached its highest point recently, and Trielle at Yarra’s Edge, scheduled to top out in early 2026

Since construction began in August last year, up to 240 workers have been on site daily, pouring 7,000 cubic metres of concrete across 72 pours and installing more than 1,000 tonnes of steel reinforcement to bring the project to this landmark moment.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=138659 project_image_fid=4353]

Mirvac’s CEO, Development – Residential and Commercial Mixed Use, Stuart Penklis said the achievement highlights Mirvac’s design quality and sustained delivery across Melbourne.

House And Land

SKF Development has timed the release of their Sceniq Bilambil Heights development on the Tweed Coast perfectly, at a&nbsp;time when demand for residential land on both sides of the Queensland border is at a record high.

The $59 million subdivision planned for a 15.8-hectare site bounded by Walmsleys Road and Stott Street will deliver 100 large residential homesites with an average size of 1,200 sqm into a severely undersupplied market, with a masterplan that also incorporates a community park.

SKF Development has released the first stage of the project, comprising 30 homesites, many with ocean views, exclusively by invitation to locals who had previously registered their interest, with a full launch to the wider property market planned in the new year.

“We are over the moon with the response so far to Sceniq Bilambil Heights, which has been extremely well received by locals,” said Eric Zhao, Director of SKF Development.

“Our plans for this unique, elevated site have struck a chord with buyers who have been pleasantly surprised by the comparative affordability of the residential homesites we are presenting to the market."

<img alt="Scenic" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="ec87820d-09e3-4460-91af-20a27984f18b" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202023-12-21%20at%206.58.26%20pm.png?VersionId=Rp3n8YpGcaW83l.HAld1Oto0XX_Qm1E6" />

The project sales team has been swamped with enquiries for the premium residential homesites ahead of the official launch, saying it received 350 preliminary expressions of interest within a week of announcing its plans, with 250 of those received on the first day alone.

Several homesites in the first release have already been secured by eager buyers, where land is priced from $485,000. The average sales have been $545,000.

The residential community has been designed to enhance the outdoor lifestyle through a network of accessible walking paths which intersect at Sceniq Park, so all residents can enjoy an active and connected lifestyle.

Sceniq Bilambil Heights is located within easy reach of the Terranora Broadwater and Terranora Creek, including the extensive Scenic to Peninsular Drive Cycleway that offers more than 3km of waterside pathways.

The new community will be just 10 minutes’ drive to Coolangatta Beach, and the heart of the southern Gold Coast’s retail and restaurant scene, with the Gold Coast Airport also close to hand just 10 minutes away and the M1 Motorway just six minutes’ drive, providing easy and direct access to a range of employment and lifestyle options.

The release of residential homesites at Sceniq Bilambil Heights comes amid a massive shortfall in new residential housing developments in the Tweed Shire and neighbouring Gold Coast City.

According to the latest RPM research, of the 7,555 new residents who moved to the Tweed Shire in the most recent 12-month period, 1,691 people (22 per cent) were relocating from the Gold Coast.

The analysis also found the population of the greater Bilambil and Bilambil Heights area is expected to grow 80 per cent to more than 7,000 by 2041. To accommodate this growth, a further 1,299 new dwellings are required to be built, or 72 new homes a year.

Managing Director of RPM Queensland, Clinton Trezise, says migration trends mean Gold Coasters are increasingly spilling over the border into northern New South Wales after being priced out of the Gold Coast property market or due to a lack of options.

“Gold Coast has long been a beacon of coastal living but demand due to population growth has certainly outpaced the supply,” said Trezise.

“It's been a one-way street for so long, with southerners heading north to the sunny Gold Coast. Yet, as the demand and supply imbalance is becoming unsustainable, Gold Coasters are now looking to options close to the border in their search for new homes.”

The new $724 million 430-bed Tweed Valley Hospital development nearing completion at Cudgen is set to open in early 2024 with the facility primed to become a significant new employment base for the region, while adding much needed infrastructure to cater for a growing population.

Melbourne-based real estate developer, Resolution Property Group, and Liberman familybacked, Monark Property Partners, have fast-tracked the launch of their premium Affinity Release in their new $80 million&nbsp;7 Star, zero-carbon community, Harli, in the burgeoning south-east Melbourne growth corridor suburb of Cranbourne West.

The new collection follows the success of the first release, Harmony, where 11 of the 13 lots were sold during the project's launch weekend in October, outperforming the&nbsp;5.5 sales per month average for greenfield projects across Melbourne and Geelong over Q3 of 2022,&nbsp;demonstrating demand for high performance homes with access to an established lifestyle.

Resolution Director, Jeremy De Zylva said the first release of Harli was an overwhelming success, outperforming the group’s initial sales forecast.

“The success has prompted us to fast-track the Affinity Release which has generated a lot of interest from prospective buyers,” De Zylva said.

<img alt="Render of the homes set for Harli" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="5e8d2361-6bb5-4c6c-ac61-3d6c85e8f806" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/E04_Streetscape%20Homes.jpg?VersionId=zILBn5uYc.3uGp3hr8D7aA2oezBwpxlc" />

“The land lots sold during the Harmony release ranged in size from 294 to 512 sqm, with prices starting from $387,000, selling to local up-sizers seeking more space, as well as investors and first home buyers.”

“The City of Casey’s population is expected to grow by around 40 per cent between now and 20412. Harli aims to meet this future housing demand, whilst creating an environmentally sustainable community for future residents.”

The environmentally sustainable development will become home to a market-leading residential community comprising two hectares of wetlands and 181 lots to be released in stages, with all home designs to be 7 Star NatHERS, zero-carbon and all-electric.

The Affinity Release comprises 12 lots ranging from 400 sqm to 546 sqm, with prices starting from $475,000. Six of the lots face the wetland reserve and the remaining six lots benefit from a 32 metre depth, providing plenty of space for buyers to build their dream home.

Core Projects’ Senior Project Manager, Sara Andreadis, confirmed that Harli’s environmentally sustainable design was resonating strongly with prospective purchasers.

“Around 48 per cent of Harli’s enquiry to date has come from upgraders which well and truly bucks the trend we’re seeing across other projects, indicating this segment’s growing desire to contribute to a healthier, low-impact future,” she said.

“We anticipated young families and upgraders would be attracted to the project due to its infill location, being within walking distance from several established education, transport, retail and recreation facilities – but we are also finding that our buyers are appreciating the environmentally sustainable design features and high quality of the product.”

“We expect that in time, Harli will become regarded as an exemplary sustainable residential community that reflects our ethos of developing great places to live, with energy efficiency and low-carbon living embedded in every element of the project’s design,” De&nbsp;Zylva added.&nbsp;

<img alt="Render of the streetscape at Harli" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="fcf21e87-c705-4ed2-91be-beff8793116d" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/E02_Streetscape.jpg?VersionId=o3ynxh1LIkyxYKXtzI0WZ..56Iazt7wD" />

Inspired by nature, every home to be constructed at Harli will be 7 star, zero-carbon and all-electric, incorporating solar panels, double glazing, rainwater harvesting, crossflow ventilation, LED lighting and all-electric household appliances to improve efficiency, reduce energy use and lower household bills.

Resolution has partnered with a selection of award-winning builders to deliver the Harli homes, including Arden Homes, SJD, Metricon, Eight Homes, Soho Living, Porter Davis and Beachwood Homes.

“We have become increasingly cognisant of the importance of and need for improved sustainability outcomes in residential housing and are proud to play a part in delivering Resolution’s benchmark highly sustainable Harli community,” Arden Homes’ Director, Dean Morrison, said.

Located off Lindwall Drive, Harli occupies a prominent position in Cranbourne West. Approximately 40 kilometres south east of Melbourne’s CBD, Harli is positioned adjacent to Ranfurlie Golf Club and within walking distance to Clarinda Village shopping centre, Barton Primary School and numerous parks and recreational facilities.

Construction is slated to kick off on Harli in the early months of next year.&nbsp;

National property developer Goldfields is further expanding its extensive portfolio, announcing its first acquisition in Western Australia and the opening of a new Goldfields office in Perth.

The newly acquired 400-lot site was purchased for $8 million and is four kilometres&nbsp;from the centre of the Margaret River township. It will be Goldfields’ first development beyond Australia’s eastern seaboard.

The site, at 211 Darch Road, Margaret River,&nbsp;is set to become a masterplanned residential community, with construction due to commence in the fourth quarter of this year. It is well-positioned to&nbsp;benefit&nbsp;from strong demand as Western Australia prepares to welcome back domestic and international migrants in the future.

Lachlan Thompson, Chief Executive Officer of Goldfields, said the team had been looking for areas with strong development potential on the western coast of Australia.

“We’ve made no secret of our appetite for growth and our expansion into WA further strengthens our national pipeline," Thompson said.

“We’ve identified significant growth opportunities in Margaret River, due to favourable economic conditions, employment expansion and significantly constrained land supply in the area.

“We are delighted to have a permanent presence on the west coast in addition to major ongoing projects in Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland and South Australia."

Gareth Wilson, General Manager WA at Goldfields, noted recent growth in Margaret River and surrounds created an attractive development opportunity.

“Popularity in the South-West is stronger than ever and as a result Margaret River has seen an unprecedented growth in property sales and prices over the past two years," Wilson noted.

“Margaret River’s unique lifestyle offering and the strong Western Australian economy have created demand in the area, not only from the local population, but also holiday makers and investors.

“The picturesque site is surrounded by world-famous surf beaches, renowned wineries and is a short drive into Margaret River township. Not only will this new community help to meet the demand for housing, but it will also offer purchasers an affordable opportunity to improve their lifestyle in the South-West,” Mr Wilson said.

Goldfields also recently branched out in to Brisbane, <a href="/news/qld/melbourne-developer-goldfields-take-first-step-in-to-brisbane">submitting plans for a 20-level tower in&nbsp;Milton</a>, the riverside suburb in the inner western ring of the city.

Goldfields Chief Executive, Lachlan Thompson, told Urban that the time was right to go in to the Brisbane apartment market.

“As a national property developer, we are constantly looking for areas that offer strong development potential and we were impressed with Milton’s amenity and connectivity to all things lifestyle related," Thompson said.

The Aultun Group&rsquo;s latest Keysborough development, The Woodlands, is set to deliver a new living experience in the south-east Melbourne suburb.

Situated at 21-23 Loxwood Avenue, the estate features a collection of 42 double-story house and land packages designed with aspirational families in mind.

The three and four-bedroom homes were designed to be modern and timeless with a complementary colour palette of greys and timber accents across the fa&ccedil;ade.

<blockquote>
&ldquo;New projects like the Woodlands coming along will go a long way to satisfying the serious market demand for new house and land&rdquo;, said Oliver Hume&rsquo;s Harvey Carretero.
</blockquote>

Carretero noted that as a rapidly growing suburb, Keysborough was emerging as a vibrant, new residential area.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108775 project_image_fid=179327]

Set 27-kilometres from the Melbourne CBD, the suburban gem boasts a number of neighbourhood amenities.

&ldquo;The location is unsurpassed for its close proximity to an array of amenities&rdquo;, according to the developers.

Within walking distance to the property are Dingley shops and Parkmore Shopping Centre, anchored by Woolworths and Coles.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108775 project_image_fid=179333]

There is a collection of eateries and caf&eacute;s along the Dingley shopping strip on Centre Dandenong Road, including Match &amp; Co Caf&eacute; and Strange Servant.

Residents can also appreciate the range of recreation opportunities on offer thanks to the green spaces and leafy retreats that dot the neighbouring streetscapes.

&ldquo;[S]hare in a round of golf at the Southern Golf Course or watch the kids play in the fantastic playgounds at Tatterson Park&rdquo;, the project marketing suggests.

Backing on to a peaceful parkside sanctuary, residents will always have their daily fix of the outdoors, as well as the neighbouring Spring Valley Park and Keysborough Community Park.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108775 project_image_fid=179331]

Keysborough provides a range of educational offerings, including South Primary school, the established Haileybury College and Lighthouse Christian College.

Eight kilometres from the home, you will also find Monash, a leading Australian university that boasts a student population exceeding 85,000

A short drive from the Woodlands estate, residents will find Mordialloc Beach and discover the bay and beach caf&eacute;s.

The well-developed and popular beach includes a pier, picnic areas and a curving promenade running behind the beach from the pier to the lifesaving club and beyond.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108775 project_image_fid=179329]

The revitalisation of the Greater Dandenong has continued to transform the region, adding a strong incentive to invest.

In 2006, the Victorian Government pledged $290 million to this renewal over the next 20 years to 2026, which will leverage $18 billion in private sector development, create 5,000 new jobs and 4,000 new homes.

The Woodlands is expected to reach completion in early 2023.

The Melbourne-based property development and investment group,&nbsp;SIG Group, has acquired a second site in Tarneit, in Wyndham&#39;s booming growth corridor.

The 162 hectare site will see another 2,300 lots added to SIG Group&#39;s pipeline in the area.

Located within the Oakbank PSP, the site will offer land and townhomes, with premium lots fronting parks and the riverfront.

Located a stone&rsquo;s throw from the new $150 million Wyndham City Stadium, set to be a major activity centre for Melbourne&rsquo;s west, the estate will also benefit from the proposed Sayers Road train station, with the State Government set to fast-track construction to service the future stadium and growing suburb.

Director at SIG Group Hugh Lu said the new project will provide an unrivalled offering in regards to amenities and green open spaces, with the Werribee River running along the site&rsquo;s western edge.

&ldquo;Future residents will have access to state-of-the-art amenities, right on their doorstep, while immersing themselves in nature via purpose-built wetlands and river frontages.

&ldquo;The future Sayers Road train station means residents will be highly connected to Melbourne&rsquo;s CBD, while being walking distance to the major activity centre of the Wyndham City Stadium.&rdquo;

The acquisition signals the second Tarneit site for SIG, following the acquisition of a 56-hectare site on Derrimut Road earlier this year.

Victorians awoke to their first day of freedom although restrictions apply to the sale of real estate.

Real estate inspections can occur at homes, apartments, and at apartment and house and land display suites.

<a href="/developments/melbourne-vic?source_news_article_id=107112&amp;ref=news_body_link"><img alt="" height="800" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/template_photoshop_melbournecbd_11.jpg" width="1200" /></a>

Up to 10 people can attend an inspection by private appointment at homes for sale, but with no more than 1 person per 4 square metres.

Most display suites will seek one on one appointments.

Display homes can&nbsp;open, with density requirements of 1 person per 4sqm.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=99962 project_image_fid=160810]

Housing Industry Association figures show Victoria typically makes up one-third of all display suite visits in Australia.

Real estate auctions can occur, with up to 100 people per venue &mdash; indoors or outdoors.

COVID-19 marshals must ensure attendees check in to auctions and inspections.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=95340 project_image_fid=160801]

Venues, such as display suites, are required to undertake electronic record keeping with the Victorian Government QR Code Service through the Service Victoria app.

Several apartment complexes were caught up during the state&#39;s fifth lockdown with Covid postive cases highlighted by the LaCrosse Building at 673 La Trobe Street in the Docklands.

It is a requirement that all&nbsp;Owners Corporation need&nbsp;a COVIDSafe plan in relation to its workplace and employees. An Owners Corporation in Victoria also requires a COVIDSafe plan for all premises where there are shared spaces, including shared outdoor spaces.

With house and land packages seeing a surge in popularity, bolstering housing supply ahead of the restart of post COVID-19 immigration could improve housing affordability, according to the new Stockland managing director Tarun Gupta.

Gupta, who spent 26 years at Lendlease, has just taken over from Mark Steinert at Australia&#39;s largest listed residential house and land developer.

&ldquo;A lot of the heat currently is in established home prices, which is where price increases are coming through,&rdquo; Mr Gupta told The Australian.

He added that ensuring supply would stop prices rising too high, which had been&nbsp;creating&nbsp;affordability problems and stopping people getting into the market.

&ldquo;We think supply needs to come in and kick in at the moment,&rdquo; he said.

&ldquo;Over time, especially as immigration starts to come up in future years, there&rsquo;ll be more demand, right across the market. Supply is very important to moderate prices, because affordability is good at the moment because of low interest rates,&rdquo; he said.

&ldquo;Even though we don&rsquo;t have migrants coming to the country at the moment we have had a lot of Australians returning back to the country who have supported, probably more the established home market, but that is still driving a halo effect on the market that we service,&rdquo; he said.

He said outer suburban and regional markets were drawing people looking for larger homes and better amenities, partly due to the pandemic, which allowed for flexible working from home.

&ldquo;We are selling a very large proportion of our homes to owner-occupiers who are really making the choice to come and live in our community.&quot;

But buyers are being forced further and further out, Richard Rhydderch, general manager of residential communities NSW for developer Stockland, told Domain.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=99962 project_image_fid=160807]

&ldquo;There&rsquo;s a real lack of supply in greenfield areas, and that will continue until the government releases more land or accelerates rezoning,&rdquo; he says.&nbsp;

&ldquo;And with people being pushed further from the centres, we need better infrastructure and access to jobs, which requires significant investment from local and state governments.&rdquo;

At the moment, Stockland is allocating buying opportunities to people who register their interest as soon as a new parcels of land are released.

It is not unknown to take 1000 requests for 20 blocks in the first three minutes.

&quot;There&rsquo;s a lot of people being constantly disappointed,&rdquo; Rhydderch said. &ldquo;And that isn&rsquo;t good to see.&rdquo; 
&nbsp;
