Tweed BBRC - Hundred Hills Estate
Murwillumbah 2484 New South Wales
Funded via the Federal Government’s Building Better Regional Cities programme, the Horizon Housing Group partnered with Tweed Shire Council and Stockland to provide 52 affordable housing lots for sale and rent in Hundred Hills estate, Murwillumbah.
HHR continues to manage the affordable housing properties retained and owned by the CHL Group.
Horizon’s second mortgage over the property is interest-free, has no charges, and is only repayable when the property is sold. The second mortgage is fixed at the initial value of 25% of the purchase price paid for the land, and so does not increase over time. There is no fixed or maximum length of time the investor can hold the property and the 25% fixed amount will only ever become repayable when the property is sold.
It is our mission to deliver affordable housing solutions, and we are seeking to close the gap between the rental market and home ownership. We know that the price of home ownership is out of reach for many people.
Undertaking of these works not only helped to alleviate housing stress in the Tweed region but enabled further stages of the development to be brought forward including parks, community recreation areas and trunk infrastructure.
