Trust in Trevet with a supported path that helps move you from renting to
owning sooner.
Pathway One
Entry Pathway
Secure your block with as little as $10,000.
You’re ready to buy — but the full deposit isn’t quite there yet. The Entry pathway lets
you exchange on your chosen block with just $10,000 upfront, then pay off the remaining
balance of your 5% deposit in manageable weekly instalments while your land settles.
No need to wait years to save.
Lock in your block at today’s price and start moving forward now.
Pathway Two
Build Pathway
Keep living your life while your home takes shape.
Paying rent or an existing mortgage while also taking on a new home loan during construction
is a lot to carry. The Build pathway removes that pressure entirely.
Access up to 30% more borrowing capacity and pause repayments for up to 12 months during construction. You won’t pay a cent on your new home until you receive your keys and move in — giving you the breathing room to keep living comfortably while your future takes shape.
Pathway Three
Signature Pathway
The complete pathway — maximum flexibility, from day one.
The Signature pathway brings together everything Own Sooner has to offer. Exchange
with just $10,000, pay your deposit in weekly instalments, access greater borrowing
capacity and pause repayments until you move in.
It’s the most flexible way to own — designed for buyers who want every advantage
working in their favour, with full support from start to finish.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Own Sooner?
A flexible buying pathway that lets people secure a block of land and their new home now with as little as $10,000 deposit, instead of waiting years to save a full deposit.
What if I already have my deposit saved?
That’s ok, you may just want to use the pause repayments while you build option. That’s the choice you have with Own Sooner – you can choose pathway 1 or pathway 2 or join them together for complete flexibility.
How does it work?
Buyers exchange with $10K and pay the rest of their 5% deposit in weekly instalments. That locks in today’s price. Once the land settles, repayments pause for up to 12 months during home construction, no payments until they move in.
Who's it for?
First home buyers, downsizers, single parents, upsizers – anyone ready to buy now but held up by deposit timing or juggling rent/mortgage payments during the building phase of the buyer journey.
What's the real benefit for a buyer?
They lock in today’s land price, get up to 30% more borrowing capacity, and don’t carry double payments (rent + new loan) while building.
What happens after someone enquires?
Chat with the sales team to find the right pathway → start application/ID + finance process → review approved options → exchange and secure the block → pick a builder, what for land to register and when it does start the build.
Is it your finance team doing the process?
No, we have an independent company that does the finance process and approval and gives you three options for review. There is no obligation to use them, however many clients have found them to be instrumental in helping them obtain a loan that wasn’t possible elsewhere.
Why is Trevet doing this?
The market is locking people out on timing, not affordability. This home ownership pathway removes that barrier and gets more buyers into their home sooner. This is why we’ve built this package, an assisted pathway to home ownership, from purchase of land, through the build until you move in.
