Frequently asked questions
What is a knockdown rebuild?
A knock down rebuild involves pulling down your existing house and then reusing the land to build a brand new home that suits your family’s needs better.
What are the benefits of a knockdown rebuild?
Remaining in the same neighbourhood you love and keeping the address you know is one of the great benefits of a knockdown rebuild. A knockdown rebuild also means you can build the exact home your growing family needs, and include any extra bedrooms or living areas to suit your lifestyle. Last but not least, when you knockdown an old house and build a brand new home, you can make sure the home fits within your budget and avoid any budget blowouts from nasty surprises.

Does Clarendon Homes arrange the demolition of my house?
Clarendon Homes can recommend a great local house demolition service with competitive rates and high-quality service.
Does Clarendon Homes have any designs that fit a 10m wide block?
Yes, we have a stunning range of home designs that fit on a 10m+ wide block. These beautiful designs include the sophisticated Hawthorne 310 and the modern Lilyfield 320 MKII, which is on display at Rochedale Arise.
How much will a demolition cost?
In Australia, the average price tag for a house demolition can cost anywhere between $12,000 and $40,000 and varies due to factors such as the size of the home, the materials of the house, foundation removal, how accessible your site is and whether there are any hazardous building materials such as asbestos or mould present.
How do you finance a knockdown rebuild?
Generally, most people decide to finance a knockdown rebuild with a construction loan that’s tied to a building contract. This type of loan has been formed to supply finance in a way that matches the milestone and payment requirements during the construction process. We recommend consulting your local mortgage broker for the best option for you.
