Working on a owner builder project as opposed to working on a new build is an exciting and life-changing moment; and when you make the decision to build a new house rather than buying an established property, you’ll have the added joy of designing a space that’s perfect for you.

Building a new house gives you extra security and the assurance of quality workmanship and suitable materials. And by incorporating smart and sustainable design elements, you can save money on electricity in the long term and reduce the ongoing running costs of living in your home.

By building with the latest materials and designs, you can be rest assured that your brand new home meets today’s high building standards for structure, safety and sustainability. Modern homes are fitted with the latest technology that makes it easy to maintain the comfortable lifestyle and living environment you want. You’ll also get the opportunity to design the house that perfectly suits your needs instead of purchasing somebody else’s problems.

Building a new house empowers you with choice. Instead of trying to cram your lifestyle into a predefined space, you can tailor a design that matches with the way you and your family want to live. Need a cosy nook for reading all of your favourite books? Or maybe an extra room for the gym equipment? Or how about a rumpus room with the latest technology for the kids – the choice is yours!

A modern home is much easier to maintain and is more energy and water efficient than most existing homes.

Contemporary homes now have to be much stricter when it comes to water and energy ratings. Studies show savings on average energy bills of just over $2,000* per year when comparing brand new homes with homes that were built in the eighties.

A new home can also save you thousands long-term.
