Knockdown Rebuild - Frequently Asked Questions

Knockdown rebuilds are becoming more popular in Victoria. You not only get to stay in the neighbourhood you love, but you can create your dream home from scratch. We spoke to knockdown rebuild specialist, David Kelada, to understand the five reasons to consider a knockdown rebuild, including lower costs when compared to a renovation and maintaining your equity. Click here to find out more.

When considering a knockdown rebuild project with us, be reassured that you will have fixed and transparent pricing from the get-go. This means that you won’t experience any surprises throughout your journey and know exactly how much the project with cost at the beginning. Our full-service offering means that all factors will be considered when you are given your Preliminary Works Contract, with everything taken care of from site assessment to demolition and construction. Click here for a step-by-step guide to what your knockdown rebuild project would look like.

Your knockdown rebuild specialist will include all costs in your Preliminary Works Contract, including site assessments, demolition and construction. If you want to speak to a finance consultant about your budget concerns, your knockdown rebuild specialist can get in touch with our in-house finance team at Resolve Finance.

One of the benefits of choosing to knockdown and rebuild your home is that you avoid the costs of buying an established home, including paying stamp duty and agent fees. To read more about the benefits of choosing to knockdown and rebuild your home, click here.

Similar to any build journey, you will need to talk to a finance consultant to determine your budget and get their help to obtain the best loan to finance your knockdown / teardown rebuild. Your knockdown rebuild specialist can put you in touch with a Resolve Finance consultant to assist.

For a knockdown rebuild, you will need to pay $5000 at the time of signing a Preliminary Works Contract (PWC), 5% deposit at New Home Contract signing (less the $5,000 already paid) and the following progress payments during construction:

  • Base slab complete – 10%
  • Frame complete – 15%
  • Lockup complete – 35%
  • Fixing complete – 25%
  • Final handover of keys – 10%

You will also have to pay a provisional sum, which is an amount of money included in the contract sum to cover work or materials, the extent of which cannot be specifically detailed when entering the contract. A provisional sum may be credited back if it is not required via a post contract variation, after the contract has been signed. This amount may or may not affect the finance of your knockdown rebuild depending on your budget as it will be factored into the final contract amount.

As part of our full service offering, Boutique’s expert team will undertake comprehensive demolition management of your site to make sure your build gets started and scheduled without any hidden costs. Click here for more information.

A knockdown rebuild avoids all the unexpected costs of a renovation, for example subpar electrical wiring or plumbing, pest infestations and stamp duty costs. Entering into the knockdown rebuild process with Boutique ensures you will have fixed and transparent pricing from the get-go, as well as avoiding any nasty surprises.

A knockdown rebuild specialist will help you select the best bespoke house plan and design option to suit your property, goals and personal style, while also complying with council and planning restrictions. Our specialists take into consideration not only the customers personal tastes, but also council restrictions and their budget before offering a suite of floorplans to choose from.

Your qualified site assessor will work with your sales consultant to ensure that your selected Boutique home design and your own site are a perfect match. This process includes doing an in-depth review of your particular council overlays and residential code, checking the land title, and reviewing the typography (slope) of your block.

Included as part of your knockdown rebuild, you will be assigned your own personal and qualified interior designer who will guide you through the entire process and help create the perfect vision for your new home.
