House and Land Packages Frequently asked questions
WHAT IS A HOUSE AND LAND PACKAGE IN TASMANIA?
A House and Land Package offers a streamlined solution for building your dream home. It combines the purchase of a block of land with the construction of your new home into a single process. This approach ensures that your chosen home design will perfectly suit your selected block of land.
HOW DO HOUSE AND LAND PACKAGES WORK IN TASMANIA?
At Wilson Homes, our specialists in House and Land Packages source residential land from agents or developers. This land is then matched with the most suitable home designs from our range, tailored to fit the size, shape, and orientation of the block.
An essential part of the preparation process involves positioning each home within its block and providing an accurate estimate of building costs before the package is offered for sale.
House and Land packages are particularly popular with first-time home buyers who prefer a straightforward process. Everything is handled for you, ensuring you get a beautiful home designed to suit the block without the stress of sourcing land and home designs separately.
WHAT’S THE AVERAGE PRICE OF A HOUSE AND LAND PACKAGE IN TASMANIA?
At Wilson Homes, we typically offer House and Land Packages in regions across Tasmania for under $650,000. However, packages in more premium locations may exceed this price. Our specialists can help you find a package that fits your budget.
WHAT ARE THE 3 MAIN BENEFITS OF BUYING A HOUSE AND LAND PACKAGE?
- Secure the best land before it goes to market
In a competitive market, securing the right land can be challenging. Many prime land options are offered to reputable builders before becoming available to the public. At Wilson Homes, our relationships with developers allow us to secure desirable land early, giving you an advantage by choosing a House and Land Package with us. - Save money and stay on budget
Choosing a House and Land Package with Wilson Homes simplifies budgeting for your dream home. You’ll receive a combined price for both land and construction upfront, minimising the risk of unexpected costs. Additionally, you’ll be provided with an expected build timeline, aiding in budgeting if you’re renting while building. A House and Land Package can be more affordable than purchasing an established home because you only pay Stamp Duty on the land. Often located in newly developed areas, these packages can be more budget-friendly and offer investment potential as the area grows. - Get the perfect home for your block in a convenient location
With Wilson Homes, we pre-select the ideal home design for each block, considering factors such as sun orientation and driveway placement. This means all the essential details are handled, allowing you to enjoy your building journey without the stress of custom builds.
Choosing a House and Land Package also saves you time searching for the right location. Wilson Homes carefully selects blocks in areas close to necessary amenities such as shops, schools, and parks.
IS A HOUSE AND LAND PACKAGE A GOOD INVESTMENT
A House and Land Package can be an excellent investment because it provides cost certainty upfront, making it easier to stay within your budget. These packages are often located in new upcoming areas, which can be more affordable than established areas, giving you the opportunity to invest in a growing region.
WHICH AREAS OF TASMANIA DOES WILSON HOMES OFFER HOUSE AND LAND PACKAGES?

IS THE HOME ALREADY BUILT WHEN I BUY A HOUSE AND LAND PACKAGE?
No, the home is not already built. A House and Land Package means you are purchasing a block of land and a full package that includes the construction of your new home. This approach allows you to choose from pre-selected designs suited to the block and only pay Stamp Duty on the land.
