Knock Down Rebuild

Buying an older home?
To secure a special location or large block, buying an old home is often the best option to create your dream home via a knock down rebuild process.
Perhaps you’ve been considering a major renovation to get a new kitchen, bathroom and all modern fixtures and fittings and due to the huge construction costs, you haven’t been able to make your dreams a reality. You can avoid the nasty and expensive surprises that are the hallmark of renovations, ensuring that your budget is predictable and manageable.
Or maybe your old home just hasn’t got the layout, space and light that we you desire in modern home designs but you love the location.

Cheaper and faster than renovation
Knocking down an old home and building a new Mincove Home is significantly cheaper, and often quicker than a major renovation. And it means you can stay in, or move to, a location you love.
With Mincove, it also means the dream of living in a beautiful, new, affordable home is within your reach. And with our fixed price contracts, you don’t have the nightmare of escalating renovation costs.

FAQs
What are the benefits of a knock down rebuild?
While the idea might sound extreme, there are many benefits, including:
- Cheaper and faster than a renovation — In our experience, we find that starting from scratch is the more cost and time-effective option. This is often because there are no surprises expenses, plus you won’t have to worry about repaying stamp duty or real estate fees.
- No need to move — Many homeowners who’ve either outgrown their home or want a fresh start struggle with the idea of selling their home because they love the area. By opting for a knock down rebuild, families can stay in their suburb but enjoy the luxury of a new home.
- Greater flexibility in design — House hunting doesn’t always go according to plan, especially if you’re after a specific floor plan or design. With a knock down rebuild, you’re the boss. You’ll be in charge of everything from the interior design to bedroom size to kitchen features.
- Can keep up with a growing family — One of the common reasons homeowners need to move house is because they’d like to expand their family. Opting to have your home rebuilt means adding as many extra rooms as you want, without having to endure the stress of moving.
