18 new and off-the-plan projects listed.
New South Wales is Australia's most populous state, stretching from the Queensland border down to Victoria and from the coast out to the far west. Most new and off-the-plan homes are concentrated in Greater Sydney, with further activity in regional centres such as Newcastle, Wollongong and the Central Coast.
Sydney is a city of distinct hubs rather than one centre. The CBD and the inner suburbs around it offer apartments close to work, beaches and the harbour. Further out, growth areas in the north-west and south-west are delivering new masterplanned communities with houses, townhouses and land, often alongside new schools, parks and shopping centres.
Transport has been a big part of the story. The Sydney Metro network, the expanding light rail lines and the established suburban train network have opened up suburbs that were once seen as too far away, and many new projects are planned around stations.
For younger buyers and first home buyers, New South Wales offers a wide spread of options, from compact one-bedroom apartments near city jobs to larger homes in the growth corridors. The NSW Government offers first home buyer support schemes, so check Revenue NSW for the current rules before you commit to a contract.
