Think 2025 is too soon to build? Here’s Why Waiting Could Cost You!

If you’ve been picturing your dream home, there’s no better time to act than now. Here’s why: 2025 is shaping up to be one of the most promising years to kick off your building journey. But here’s the kicker—waiting could end up costing you more than you think.
Rising construction costs, shifts in interest rates, and fierce competition for land are all factors at play. So, if you’re ready to start, we could have you breaking ground by the end of 2025. Yes, there’s a waitlist, but it’s the waitlist to be on.
Let’s unpack why now is the perfect time to act—and why holding off could leave you paying more, waiting longer, or settling for less.

Why 2025 is the Year to Start Your Build
Secure Your Spot with Stannard Family Homes
We’re already booking out for 2025, with the first half of the year fully locked in. By starting your design process now, you’ll not only secure your spot but also ensure your build gets the attention it deserves. When you’re building your dream home, sooner is always better than later.
Rising Construction Costs
Here’s a reality check: building costs in Australia rose by 9% in 2024 (thanks, CoreLogic), and they’re tipped to keep climbing in 2025. Delaying your build might mean paying more for the exact same home. Lock in today’s prices while you still can.
Limited Land Availability
The western and southern suburbs of South Australia are becoming hot property—literally. Waiting too long could mean missing out on premium blocks or settling for a less-than-ideal location. Don’t let the perfect spot slip through your fingers.
Interest Rates Are Predicted to Drop
The big banks are hinting at a drop in interest rates for 2025. That’s great news for securing a home loan, but timing is everything. Lock in lower rates now before the landscape shifts again—you’ll thank yourself later.
The Cost of Waiting
- Higher Construction Costs: Materials and labour aren’t getting cheaper. Waiting could see your dream home’s price tag climb higher than expected.
- Missed Land Opportunities: The best blocks are being snapped up fast. Waiting could mean fewer choices or paying a premium for what’s left.
- Uncertain Interest Rates: While rates might drop, they’re not guaranteed to stay low forever. The earlier you act, the better your financial position.
