Buying a house in Aintree VIC
Aintree is a new suburb developed on the former Rockbank land, so the homes are generally newer and built on greenfields. Buyers looking here usually choose a house from the Woodlea Estate. The main points are checking the work against the approved drawings and the NCC. We also check the site against the Guide to Standards and Tolerances. A stage inspection protects you from poor workmanship before you sign the contract.
