Armstrong continues to move apace as residents will have seen with earthworks and all sorts of action around the Mount Duneed community.<\/p>\n

The latest news is that the Sanctuary community, the quiet hideaway between Burvilles Road and Armstrong Creek, has sold out.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s more hard evidence of the area\u2019s popularity and affordability with new home buyers.<\/p>\n

This is only likely to continue as the Armstrong Creek Town Centre opens for business in July, just a few short months away.<\/p>\n

Stage 1 retailers are set to include Coles, Liquorland, Terry White Chemist, Beauty Genesis and Tattslotto. Stage 2 retailers are expected to be released soon.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re a first home buyer looking to make the move to Armstrong, the Federal Government\u2019s First Home Loan Deposit Scheme is offering a significant helping hand.<\/p>\n

Under the scheme, eligible first home buyers can purchase a home with a deposit of just 5 per cent.<\/p>\n

You have to be applying for an owner-occupied loan on a principal and interest basis. There\u2019s also an income upper limit: $125,000 a year singles and $200,000 for couples.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s a price cap on eligible properties, too. In Geelong, it\u2019s $600,000.<\/p>\n

The deposit scheme can be used with the state government\u2019s First Home Owners Grant<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In Geelong, this means up to $20,000 if you\u2019re buying or building a new home up to $750,000.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s worth thinking about. Armstrong, after all, is an award-winning community with a raft of special features: Club Armstrong; great location close to Geelong and Torquay; a terrific 24 hectares of parks, wetlands, sporting fields and green spaces.<\/p>\n

Oh, and for commuters, first seat on the train to Melbourne from nearby Waurn Ponds station. That\u2019s worth remembering.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
