Another chance for locals in Kununurra land sale

The State Government has offered locals who missed out on the recent release of lots at Kununurra's Lakeside Park estate another opportunity to purchase land this month.

Lands Minister Brendon Grylls said 18 lots were being made available for sale as house and land packages and a further five lots would be offered for sale by registration of interest.

"Given the high demand for residential land shown recently in Kununurra, the State Government is re-introducing preferences to ensure local owner-occupiers and business owners are given the first chance to buy in this release," Mr Grylls said.

"In addition, we're selling the land via a registration of interest system to ensure fair access to these five lots."

The online registration of interest would offer four lots from Stage 4 and one from Stage 5 of the development, with first preference given to local owner-occupiers and business owners.

The Minister said he anticipated the sale of the blocks, combined with the upcoming house and land package release at the end of the month, would satisfy local short-term demand.

The lots were priced from $137,000 and ranged from 537 to 621sqm.

Potential purchasers would be required to register their details online at http://www.landcorp.com.au/lakesidepark from 9am this Friday to 2pm on February 11.

Registrations would be entered into a draw to be held on February 16.

Another 18 house and land packages will be released at Lakeside Park from 9am on February 26.
