CommBank’s Latest Home Loan Video Filmed at Saltair

Saltair was proud to recently welcome the Commonwealth Bank of Australia team to our Sunshine Coast Display Village, where they filmed their latest prefabricated home loan video.

The video was shot inside our Hamilton 112 – a popular, compact one-bedroom design that showcases how smart prefabricated homes can feel spacious, light-filled and highly liveable, even on a smaller footprint. As a pre-approved manufacturer for CommBank’s prefab home loans, it was a natural fit to host the shoot and help bring the story of prefab finance and construction to life.
Showcasing Prefab in a Real Home Setting

Rather than filming in a studio, CommBank chose to shoot on location at our display village so viewers could see a real prefabricated home up close. The Hamilton 112 provided the perfect backdrop:

  • A compact one-bedroom layout that still feels generous and well-planned
  • Thoughtful design that reflects how prefab can work for downsizers, singles, couples or secondary dwellings
  • The quality, finishes and detailing that many people are surprised to discover in modern prefab homes

By walking through the space on camera, the video helps demystify prefabrication – showing that it’s not a compromise, but a design-led, future-ready way to build.

Explaining Prefab, From Construction to Finance

In the video, Amanda, a CommBank Home Lending Specialist, explains what a prefabricated home is and how the process differs from a traditional build.

Prefab homes are:

  • Partially built offsite in a factory
  • Transported to site as completed modules
  • Permanently affixed to your land, just like a conventional home

The video steps through both:

  • The construction journey – from choosing a design and signing a fixed-price contract through to delivery and installation
  • The financing process – including how CommBank’s prefab home loan product is structured to better align with offsite manufacturing milestones

For anyone considering prefab, it’s a clear, accessible overview of how it all works in practice.
