Review your options

* Choose where you want to live. How important is it to you and your family to be close to services, schools and employment.
* For those with an existing home it is easier than you think to stay where you are and build a new home.
* Establish a budget for your house and land, speak to a bank or mortgage broker.
* Find your land or we can help and advise you on a suitable block.
* Select your solicitor.

Select your builder

* Initial Meeting
At the initial meeting we ask that you provide us with information on the type of home you are looking for, the approximate size of the house you want, any special features, requirements you require. We ask that you provide us with as much information as you can which will allow us to get an understanding of your requirements. We will make comments and suggestions and then we will give you our fee proposal.
