Frequently Asked Questions

What do I do to start the building process?

Just book an appointment with one of our experienced team members who can help you choose the perfect plan tailored to your block of land, lifestyle, and budget. Once you’ve selected the styling and colours for your new home with help from our in-house colour consultant, we’ll provide you with a fixed price quote and an HIA new home building contract. We will handle everything from there and make it a seamless experience for you.

How long will it take to build?

The build time varies depending on the size and complexity of the home, as well as site conditions and council approvals. Generally, from the time construction begins, most homes are completed within 10 months. We’ll provide you with a more accurate timeline once your plans are finalised.

How much will it cost to build my new home?

The cost of building your new home depends on the size, design, and specifications you choose.
