We are spending twice as much on the house as on the land. We're building in Bundoora (about 18km from Melbourne CBD) and we'll be spending about $100k less on building the house than we paid for the land. And, our land was cheap in comparison. Land in the 3rd and 4th stages of the same estate are selling for at least $30k more than ours for smaller blocks that don't have the same view/placement (we're on a cul de sac next to a nature reserve).
