Like to build your dream home and pay up to 30% less?

“Is being an owner builder worth it?”

It’s a question we get asked a lot and the best way I can answer it is to put it in the words of a customer named Eric who completed his home last week after a nine month construction phase.

“Ever since I met my wife, we have spoken about our dream house. For years, we have been planning what it would be like. How many bedrooms, what kind of backyard it would have. But costs just keep going up faster than we could save and we were starting to think we were never going to be able to afford it,” he says.

“By going down the owner builder route, we were able to get more for our money and get the home we wanted.”

Of course saving money isn’t the only reason people choose to owner build. Many of our clients are tradies or project managers who have many years experience within the industry.

For them, the advantage of being an owner builder is that they get to be in control and to make sure they are getting exactly what they want. They figure they are the ones who will be living in the house and they want to know it is being done right.
