Frequently Asked Questions About Custom Home Builders
The process will vary a little depending on where you are. Generally, it proceeds through the steps outlined below. If you already have the design and concepts, we can proceed to step 3 or 4.
- The Consultation – We meet for an initial consultation to get your ideas and preferences down on paper.
- The Conceptualization – With the help of our designer, we prepare a concept plan and 3D walkthrough. We provide a preliminary budget estimate, independent site contour survey, soil classification, and DA approval (if necessary).
- The Design – Taking in the comments of you and the local authorities, we draw up designs and adjust the budget as required.
- The Engineering – At this stage, the engineering drawings are drafted.
- The Quotation – A quote is offered based on the drawings and adjustments.
- The Contract & Deposit – A HIA fixed agreement is signed and deposit is paid for us to commence work.
- The Council Submissions – The relevant files are sent to the councils.
- The Commencement – You are given an online portal to monitor and view all developments in the building process.
To provide a smooth communication process, we provide each of our clients with access to a secure website with all of the details of their new home.
The client login area provides information about your selections, upgrades, financial decisions, questions, documents, photos, and more.
Yes, custom houses do tend to be more expensive. This is the cost of getting the home that you really want and not just another prefabricated production design. The biggest difference between custom builds and production builds is the cost per square foot. The flexibility that comes with building a custom home affects the price, and you’ll ultimately be paying more for the customizations you plan with your new home.
However, there are still ways to reduce the cost – talk to Rob on (08) 9317 8941.
We can tweak the price as well as the design and we’re confident that we offer the best custom homes Perth.
