Nestled between Sun City Country Club and Yanchep National Park, Yanchep Golf Estate by Peet Limited combines established greenery with coastal living. Planned to deliver approximately 2,400 lots, the community offers blocks from around 300m² to more than 500m², alongside pocket parks, nearby schools and easy beach access. Local residents share how friendly neighbours and everyday connections make it feel like home.

Around 20 kilometres north-east of Perth’s CBD, Brabham Estate by Peet Limited brings together urban convenience and access to the Swan Valley. The 220-hectare estate sets aside 15 per cent for green space, with varied lots catering to different buyers. Whiteman Park Station, major road connections and investment in shops and schools add to its appeal, while a resident shares the community’s strong sense of belonging.

Walt and Emmylou also catch up with WA Minister the Hon. John Carey about what draws people to Western Australia. He discusses Peet’s longstanding presence in the state and the importance of delivering new housing alongside liveable communities.

For buyers unsure where to begin, OpenLot.com.au brings land, house and land packages, townhomes and home designs together in one place. The hosts demonstrate how filters for price, land size, orientation and title status help buyers compare options suited to their budget and building plans.

Rounding out the episode, Simonds Homes shares its plans to enter Western Australia with complete house and land packages and single-storey designs. The builder aims to provide greater budget clarity and consistently build homes in under six months, with its official WA programme planned to begin in November 2026.
