$15,000 for grabs with the Queensland Government First Home Owner Construction Grant

Relief is being offered to assist first home builders by the Queensland State Government through the First Home Owner Construction Grant. In the welcome move, people have the opportunity to escape the rental squeeze and build their first home with a $15,000 boost available through the grant.

Terry Kemp Builders have a range of designs that dove-tail nicely with the offering, such as their eco friendly designs that are in-expensive to build which also have ongoing economic benefits. Traditional building designs and construction hardly factor in the cost of cooling in a tropical climate, garnishing unwary home builders with the rising cost of electricity. With a Terry Kemp eco efficient home, you will make savings year after year, with the choice to use the saving on electricity consumption or to pay off your home sooner.

Such TK designs as the Dreamcatcher and Tranquility have proven themselves with their electricity consumption being much lower than the regional averages. The reason for this is smart eco efficient designs that negate the need for air-conditioners. Wide breezeways, louvres for ventilation, elevated and attractive timber floors are just a few of the innovative inclusions in a Terry Kemp constructed home. 

For more information about putting your First Home Owner Construction Grant to smart eco friendly use contact Terry Kemp on  0409 050 155      

For more information about the Grant, you can find information on the Office of State Revenue web site.

What is a good investment? Seminars in May 2015

With interest rates at historic lows there is little point storing the nest egg in a term deposit, meanwhile lending for investment has seldom been as cheap. In this type of environment there is a lot of chatter about the need to invest elsewhere, but where?

In this seminar, presentation, question and answer session, Duncan Perkins poses the question "What is a good investment?" and the answer is sure to surprise. Duncan Perkins has a 30 year career banking and finance. Co-owner of Tax Time Accountants and advocates careful investing toward a long term goal. Having seen over 20,000 finance and investment strategies, he has seen the pitfalls and the paths to success.  Duncan challenges you to bring along your concept of financial freedom, your plan and put to the test in this talk and open discussion about what does and does not work.

This will be a 15 minute presentation, question and answers, and social meet to follow.
