Cavern Homes cutting housing costsCavern Homes, under the management of Ken Dugdale, have been operating successfully in and around Mangawhai for the past four years and have come up with a new concept which must appeal to first home buyers. CONSIDER THIS The Cavern philosophy is “All About Service”. There are options to change the plans to suit your individual needs or site aspect, but include plenty of glass to give a contemporary look. “Windows and flooring are of the same quality as any other standard build we do,” says Ken. “All we tend to hear from the media is about ‘the rising cost of housing in Auckland’ but this isn’t Auckland and we firmly believe that young families and first home buyers need an opportunity to get on the property ladder and into their own homes and this option is available from Warkworth to Whangarei” he says.
HOW CAN THEY OFFER SUCH A SERVICE WITHOUT COMPROMISING QUALITY? “Secondly, we have a great association with suppliers who agree on the importance of making first housing attractive and affordable. Then we have good teams of painters and tilers plus close alliances with flooring and furnishing companies who are all prepared to pass on some of the benefits of a buoyant economy. I believe it benefits us all in the long run.”
BUT IT WON’T LAST! “We’re selling a concept. We live in the community and continue to support a number of local activities so it is important for us to be able to give something back in a market that makes things very hard for first home owners.” Talk finance with Ken too as this concept is also very attractive to banks. Home ownership “has never been so easy” and it is a big undertaking, but Cavern Homes are offering their expertise in a number of fields by launching a NEW and AFFORDABLE option. House and Land packages will be available in the Mangawhai Heads area from just $650,000. First home buyers from 10 percent deposit. No interest for build duration. Lending criteria will apply. Breaking News: From January 1, 2018, the Reserve Bank will be relaxing the Loan Value Ratio (LVR) from 10 percent to 15 percent, from banks lending under 20 percent. |
