Whether you are an investor or homebuyer, you will want to consider Northcrest for your next property purchase. 

Introducing Solis Real Estate 

With extensive knowledge of the area, Solis Real Estate has been appointed as the official sales and marketing agent for Northcrest, with Licensee Kristy Millar supporting both home buyers and investors. 

Ms Millar believes Northcrest represents one of the Territory’s most compelling combinations of location, scale and infrastructure. 

“Northcrest is no longer an emerging project. Since construction started in 2017, it has progressed to the point where buyers can see, touch and measure what is happening within the area. That matters when people are making serious investment decisions,” she said. 

“The Northcrest community is really starting to take shape, and our buyers are responding to the carefully Masterplanned nature of the subdivision. Retail is opening. Offices are under construction. Services are confirmed. We are seeing buyers’ confidence increase with that.” 

It’s all about location 

Any real estate expert will tell you that location is everything, and according to Ms Millar, investors are increasingly drawn to Northcrest because of its position within the Territory’s growth corridor. 

“People understand this location straight away. At the midpoint between Darwin and Palmerston, Northcrest sits where employment centres, Defence, schooling and services meet. That drives rental demand and supports capital growth.” 

Darwin continues to attract investors due to its rental performance and Northcrest is becoming one of the standout options for investors seeking reliable income with strong growth potential. 

“We are speaking to investors from interstate as well as locally. They recognise Darwin as undervalued and Northcrest as a low-risk investment with clear development momentum.” 

Investing in Defence 

Solis Real Estate is experiencing strong demand from investors for Defence-leased property within Northcrest, offering long-term, structured leases. 

“These purpose-built homes come with fixed-term leases already in place, with options to extend further. That provides an income profile most residential investments simply cannot match,” Ms Millar said. 

She said Defence housing remains popular among investors seeking long term tenure and security. 

“When clients want certainty in income and occupancy, Defence investment consistently comes up as the preferred option.” 

Retail and commercial opportunities 

Retail and commercial investment continues to gain momentum across Northcrest, supported by new development commitments. 

“With McDonald’s already trading and a Hungry Jack’s, an On the Run service station and a childcare centre all set to open for business in 2026, we are seeing genuine interest from operators and investors who understand the benefits Northcrest offers. We are currently in talks with both national chains and specialty retailers who see the advantages in securing a site in this easily accessible, extremely visible location on a highly trafficked highway used daily by commuters,” Ms Millar said. 

And it’s not only retailers seeing the benefits of this central location. It would be hard to miss the Northern Land Council’s soon to be completed offices as you drive past the development. Add to this a future bus service to the area and Northcrest becomes an easy commute for employees from both Darwin and Palmerston. 

Stepping up to the property ladder 

Never before has there been more financial support for Territory buyers to secure their first home. Ms Millar said these buyers continue to play a strong role in Northcrest’s growth. 

“Grants and stamp duty assistance are helping buyers step into home ownership sooner than they thought possible. Many people are surprised by how achievable building here truly is,” she said. 

Affordable land and access to incentives are encouraging renters to make the move. 

“We are seeing people realise that they can stop renting and start building without compromising on location.”

Ms Millar said interest in Northcrest continues to grow as more of the community takes shape.
