Highly recommended
We tried meeting different builders and after meeting Jai Thomas we know that we are in good hands. His professionalism and knowledge of the industry was incredible.
With regards of building the house
The timeframe and quality are on the spot.
The liaison officer and the supervisor are really helpful and were able to attend all our queries.
I would highly recommend Jai Thomas and Aussie living homes.
We really had an awesome experience.

Excellent Quality
I was impressed with Aussie Living as a builder, the build was quick and efficient and the quality of the finished product was excellent.
The final cost came in lower than expected and I feel the value for money is very good, updates were consistent, and liaisons polite and willing to help anyway they could.
Ben the salesman was also very nice to deal with when discussing the initial plans.
All in all, a very nice experience building with Aussie Living Homes and I would certainly recommend them in the future to anybody looking to get into a home.

Easy & Smooth First Home Experience
I had such a great experience with Aussie Living Homes. From the beginning my sales consultant Andrew was so genuine, helpful and managed to find me land in a suburb I wanted to be in and a house design that suited my budget. As a first home buyer I had a lot of questions (some that may have seemed quite silly) but he always had the answers for me. I appreciated the progress photos they sent to my email every week, as due to my work I was not able to visit the site as often - I never felt like I missed out on anything and always knew what was h...Read more
appening with the house that week. There were no hidden costs, that I didnt know about and I was very impressed with how fast the build was, and the quality of it too. If I were to ever build again I would definitely do it with Aussie Living Homes as it was such an easy and smooth experience.1 comment

Making dreams reality!
I cannot thank Aussie Living Homes and the wonderful staff enough for making what I thought would be impossible, a reality! I never thought I would be able to own my own home and they made it happen. From organising finance and throughout the entire build they were so supportive and helpful along the way, which was something I greatly appreciated, being my first home. They were more than happy to accommodate desired plan changes and fantastic at communication throughout the process. I was blown away with how fast construction went as I had anticipated another few months before completion. Thank you Aussie Living Homes for my beautiful first home, I look forward to the next one knowing I am in the best hands!

My experience
The build went smooth and easy. I had weekly updates. The team was very understanding.They were there all the way, quick to respond to emails and nice and patient. Time frame was earlier then expected. The quality is great, more then I anticipated. I recommend these as a first home builder.

My sales man Ben was amazing. The company stepped up to fix issues when they arose without hesitation. Quality of the house finishes are awesome and the site supervisor made the build run like clockwork. Came in under budget with some awesome inclusions. And all completed in an amazing timeframe of just 4 months from slab down. Highly recommend.

Building with Aussie Living
From start to finish building with Aussie Living homes was a great and very exciting experience. I would not have been able to to build my home if it was not for the excellent help and work from the sales rep and mortgage broker. Once the slab was down the build went very well with great quality, the office staff also done a great job keeping me updated and helped me with all of my queries. I would highly recommend Aussie Living if you are looking at building your first home.

Fantastic building experience
Whole process was efficient and well organized. Communication was frequent and informative. No issues with the build, supervisor was very helpful and on the ball. Anything that was brought up was handled quickly and to a satisfactory standard. We found costs to be very reasonable. Would build with them again based on our experience.

Best builders in Perth
Every one from Geoff at the very start to Lauren in pre-start Rob in finance, Natalie as our client liaison and Simon as the BEST site supervisor you could ask for, I dont think there has been a week where we have not been updated in what stage our paperwork/build was at. The home is quality and have not been able to fault it at all. The final cost came in as per what we where given. We have been extremely happy with everything we will definitely be recommended Aussie living to friends and family who which to build. Thank you again it was the best / stress free build I could ask for.

Amazing and friendly build and service!
We have built our home through Aussie Living and can not fault them or be happier. From our initial consultation/sales pitch with Samh, to our key handover with Natalie, the whole process has been amazing and run very smoothly on our end because of all their hard work. Our fantastic site supervisor, Phil, has been ahead of schedule, maintained the highest quality workmanship and kept clear communication pathways open. We couldn't be happier with Aussie and will definitely recommend to friends and family. We very much look forward to building with them again in the future! Final cost compared to quote, we came in under quoted budget. Thanks again, Team.

My partner and I were so very happy with all aspects of the build. It was very well managed and the building was of the highest quality. All our questions were answered timely. Any costs we were told upfront and it matched with the final cost. We cannot wait to move in and will recommend Aussie Living Homes to all of our friends and family who are thinking of building.

Great first home build experience.
My sister and I are young first home buyers with no experience so everything was very daunting. But from the beginning we knew we were in the hands of very professional people and it was then easy to trust them. There was regular communication and if we had any questions it was dealt with swiftly. We are both really happy with the team and the final product.
Thank you Aussie Livings.

Great and easy process
Building was managed easily. No issues that they could have prevented and the issue that happened during building the house (a window being smashed) was dealt with swiftly and sharply and was all resolved in under a week. Im very happy with the final product, as for a 4 bedroom 2 bathroom theatre and living space house should have costed twice the amount we paid for it. Overall very happy and would love to work with them again in the future.

Hi, just wondering. When you order some materials like for example roofing materials, do you supposed to know when it will be delivered on-site? And what’s the standard time frame for you to start the job to install that materials? Thank you

Hi Babeth! I believe we have been in contact recently regarding your roofing materials. Your Client Liaison will keep you regularly updated with all the information about time frames for delivery and installation. Each home is unique and so the time varies but you will always be kept informed if there are any delays.

Can anyone suggest how long they do take to start building after shire approval. I am aware of some other builders who do start works in 2-3 weeks from shire approval. I am building with Aussie living, more than 1 month already gone from shire approval date. Initially they say its around month. Now they say its another month. when I ask why so late they say they have million things to do. I am not sure how many millions thing one need to do to start building. obviously I feel its rude response. Probably its not appropriate response to any client you work for. Now I am struggling to trust what they say. Can any one have experience with them in this regard.

Hi durga,
It took about 3 months after approval, I was very happy with the pace way they proceeded from there on ... I dont know how much it will cost but if its your new home I would recommend a independent building inspector .
Well you must get used to the rude responses and blatant lies . Everything said the quality of the building is the hands of the site supervisor . The office staffs are mere puppets .
Make sure you do include the soakwells in the contract . I wasnot happy with the way they did the drainage or the provisions that they were supposed to do as per contract .
Take photos of something you are in doubt of, while the construction is happening, so that you some evidence to talk to the office . You will not get a chance to have a direct communication with site supervisor.
Cheers hope this helps
To be honest I think it depends entirely on the individual members that u deal with. We had the opposite experience of the poster above. Our build was super fast, our building supervisor had a few meetings with us and was available anytime we had questions. Weekly emails outlining exactly what was going to happen. 25wk build from site works - key handover. And our building supervisor even popped over 2wks after we were in to make sure everything was ok. Everybody we dealt with were great, no negative experiences at all. In comparison to other people in our estate who built with other builders, we are the lucky ones living in our home while they are still waiting

How long does it take for pad down after settlement?? we have waited over a month and a half after settlement already, and were just told that it may take another two months, thus being almost three and a half months until anything happens.. We had been patiently waiting as it was for the title of our property which took a year already (which is not aussie livings fault) but I just don't understand why on earth it is taking so long?! feels like we have been waiting an eternity and we didnt even get an estimated date on when the pad will go down till I asked 50x, then when I asked them why it will take so long I got no response.... what do I do to get it rolling a tad faster????

Hi bmth,
I will give an indication of the steps in an approval process;
1. Final construction plans (structural variations are finalized).
2. Obtain Engineers Structural Certification of plans.
3. Obtain Energy Efficiency Compliance.
4. Obtain Home Indemnity Insurance
5. Obtain Developers Design Guideline approval.
6. Obtain Certified Design Compliance.
7. Obtain MRA approval (if required).
8. Obtain Town Planning approval (if required).
9. Obtain Building Licence approval.
10. Obtain Water Authority approval.
Occasionally this process can't begin until settlement has occurred. I know that I haven't given a firm answer to your question (I only have 1000 characters) but if Settlement is the last approval then you would generally be onsite fairly soon but if it is the first approval then you could be 2 to 4 months away.
Please call me on 9241 4911 to discuss your specific home.
Regards,
Anthony Oldershaw
Brand Manager
It took over 7 months from our settlement to our slab down. Then over a month for the brick work to start. They have been onsite for 5 weeks now and still our walls are not even half way done. I hope you won't have to wait as long as we have at it has been very stressful on our young family.
We waited roughly 5 months till construction, now the ball is thankfully rolling, we have the walls up and we are waiting for roof timbers. Hopefully it will go faster for you :)
