Waterford Rise is seeing a boom of First HomeBuyers (FHB), with many of them attracted to the region by affordable land prices and backed by generous State Government Grants.

In total, 179 FHB have purchased since 2010 and since 2016 more than 100 FHB buyers; many of them seeking a new, stress free lifestyle in Warragul and have settled in the luxury garden estate.

This recent rise in people taking their first step to home ownership in Waterford Rise coincides with the introduction of the First Home Owners Regional Grant that increases their buying power by $20,000.
