NBN and the empty lot

Just can't help myself... I was looking to see then the NBN would be available in my area (due July 2014) and noticed a purple "NBN ready" area north of Adelaide... in fact there are a lot of them...

However, zooming in reveals them to be empty lots. I assume that homes will go in eventually, but honestly, should the NBN be wiring up existing homes first?

I understand the ease of installation sans homes, but this seems like they area laying a lot of fiber in empty lots just to say they've laid a lot of fiber. Note this years expansion to the south, I guess they'll have the empty lot done within 12 months (according to the NBN schedule).

Question: If it takes them 12 months to install in an empty lot, when will I "really" get service in my area
