Frequently asked questions

  • How long do I have to wait?

    Kingsford-Smith Village is a recently completed construction at full occupancy.

    Make an enquiry today for waiting list details.

  • Once I have decided on the purchase of a home, how long do I have to pay?

    Your deposit holds the home of your choice until we advise you of an occupation date.

    We will hold your deposit against your home of choice for four weeks. At the end of this time, if your current home is not actively being marketed, we will refund your deposit to allow other clients who are ready to proceed have the same opportunity.

    If your home is on the market, we will continue to hold the home in your name, but would expect settlement within three months from date of deposit. At the end of this period, we will review the situation with you, and we may be able to offer you an extension. Your deposit is fully refundable at any time should you not proceed to settlement.

    The Village strongly recommends that every potential new resident seeks independent financial and legal advice.
