RCQ Constructions is building the two-tower, 85 apartment complex at Pikki St. Mr Rafter said government grants boosted first homebuyer interest in the development, while others saw the complex as an opportunity to get their foot on the property investment ladder. Buyer Christopher de Vos said he was attracted to the complex because of its central location. Maroochydore was already a meeting spot on most weekends for me for a coffee with friends and family who live in the area or close by, so this was a great opportunity, he said. Mr de Vos purchased a unit with the help of the first-home buyers and home builder grants and looked forward to moving in when construction was completed toward the end of the year.
