Below is a newspaper advertisement from R. J. Realty dating from 1967. Home buyers were promised not just land but also a home on their chosen block. The homes were on sale mostly in the Greater West but also some homes could be bought at Asquith and Berowra on the Upper North Shore.
According to the RBA Inflation Calculator, the prices were equivalent to one spending as little as $100 000 or $150 000 at the upper end if converted to 2020 dollars.
