Before proceeding with your preferred location and house design, it's vital to secure financing. This involves having an initial deposit and collaborating with a trusted bank or finance broker to navigate the process successfully.
All our packages are situated in estates where we have established partnerships with developers. This means you're acquiring more than just a house and land; you're becoming part of a thriving community.
Once you have identified your desired location and secured financing, it's time to explore our diverse range of pre-packaged houses and land options. If you can't find precisely what you're seeking, our expert team can curate personalised options that align with your goals.
This step allows you to personalize your new home. To simplify the process, we offer on-trend colour packages. Simply choose the look you prefer, and that's it!
Rest assured our team takes care of all the necessary engineering and approvals to ensure a smooth progression.
Once we have received building approval, we proceed to the construction phase. At this stage, you would have made all your selections. Sit back, relax, and let us build your home.
Once your home is ready, you or your representative will have the opportunity to walk through the property with our construction manager before making your final payment.
