of buying off-the-plan

When purchasing a property from Du Val we only require a 10%* deposit upfront. The remainder of the balance is not due until settlement.

*The deposit is based on 10% of the agreed sale price payable to Du Val (the developer)'s solicitor and held in trust until project completion. Please consult your bank or mortgage professional for more information about lending criteria for your personal circumstances. 

One of the most exciting opportunities that comes from buying a home ‘off-the-plan’ is that you can lock in the ownership of a property without having to settle for an extended period of time. 

It may be one or two years before settlement, so Capital Growth while your property is being built can often make your initial deposit more valuable in the meantime. 

Buying off-the-plan allows for the benefit of time. A longer settlement period means you have some breathing room to take care of the overall investment, like tiding up your finances, saving money and reducing the total amount you need to borrow. 

Plus, you’ll also have more time to reduce any existing debts. If you intend to be an owner-occupier, this time can also be used to organise moving house, too. 

Things can change in life, and we think people need flexibility to make decisions without worrying about tax. If you’re a landlord and want to sell, then you may need to wait 10 years before your property will fall outside the Bright-line Rules unless you want to pay tax on the capital gain of the property. New build properties built after 27th March 2021 fall outside the Bright-line Rules after 5 years, thus can be sold without having to pay tax on the capital gain of the property. A lot can happen over 5 years let alone 10 which is why we love new build homes to live in and for investment°.

°This is not tax advice. You should consult an accountant or tax advisor for tax advice.

Did you know that tax is often the second largest expense a property investor has if they don’t buy the right property. Off-the-Plan properties qualify for the exemption that applies to new builds, thus interest costs on new build properties are generally deductible. Unlike a second-hand home built before 27th March 2021, purchasers will generally enjoy 20 years of interest deductibility from the date when the CCC is issued. The 20-year exemption is transferrable to future owners of the property, potentially making the property more attractive to potential buyers if sold within that period and potentially saving you a great deal of tax as a landlord°.

the Du Val difference

At Du Val, we are more than just a construction company. We are a visionary organisation that sees beyond the physical structures we build and understand the immense potential of New Zealand and its people. As residential property developers, we recognise the pressing need to address the housing crisis affecting Auckland, and we take our responsibility to do so very seriously.

Our commitment lies in delivering high-quality, affordable housing solutions at scale. We believe that everyone deserves a comfortable and secure place to call home, and we are determined to make that a reality for as many Aucklanders as possible.

We understand that our work comes with significant social responsibility, and we are devoted to doing our part in creating positive change. Our approach involves developing sustainable and eco-friendly projects on brownfield sites, which not only addresses the housing crisis but also promotes urban revitalization while advancing economic and social sustainability.

We firmly believe that we can play a crucial role in creating a better future for Auckland and its residents. We are committed to working closely with local communities and stakeholders to ensure that our developments are not just buildings but also thriving neighbourhoods where people can live, work, and play.
