how is coral homes in terms of pricing are they expensive or price competitive ?
3 answers
Coral Homes, to me they are not expensive in price. I got the best out of my budget and quality things in our house.
My experience with Coral homes was not the cheapest quote but very competitive with other quotes. I wanted a steel construction. Coral came out in front.
We compared prices of lots of builders in SE QLD, Coral Homes was one of the most affordable and we found they also had very welcoming Sales Consultants after visiting around 4-5 showhomes of theirs.

Hi there,
If you'd like to provide your job number I can have the QLD State Sales Manager give you a call to discuss your options in more detail. Thanks
You could look at shaving a metre through the centre smaller hall and bring the garage in could be an option if the garage is offset

Hi just wondering if a coral home is approx 250k to build what would you say we should budget for in terms of hidden costs that’s not included. Thanks Kate
1 answer
60-70k from almost every builder. It’s not ‘hidden cost’ it’s just not included in the base plan as building is very custom.
Things to consider no matter the builder.
Slab, lighting(downlights), cooking/AC driveway, curtains, size appliances, bench tops. Vanities, carpet, tiles, vinyl. Ceiling fans. Phase power to house, solar, turf, fence. The facade can range from 0-20k as well. My suggestion would be if you know your end budget talk to Coral homes tell them that’s your limit and what your needs are and work with them on a plan to suit.

I have decided to build with coral homes how they are in costing they stick to it or so many hidden costs?
2 answers
They had a fixed price contract with us, only changed costs were ones we asked for and one for engineering once they were able to access the land.
They are really good. Cost came in almost exactly what we were quoted. Only changes were from us, and maybe one extra smoke alarm that had to be installed!!!

The building process was fantastic from start to finish. You will not be disappointed

Hi Frankie - we built in mid north coast NSW with Coral and we can highly recommend them. From start to finish our home has run smoothly and is everything we were hoping for. Our SS was fabulous and this is the answer to a perfect building process.
All the best

Shane S.asked
Hi all,
Did anyone build with Coral homes in Sydney recently (particularly Gledswood hills/Emerald hills area). I'm in love with the Noosa 23 design. By looking at overall reviews, reviews with regards to builds in NSW are not that good. Theres, your comments are highly appreciated.
3 answers
We loved the Noosa 23 as a display home so we went to Coral Homes to have one built for us. How perfect it was in the display village. Nothing like what we had built for us.
Hi Koala - Thank you for your response. What were the issues you had, if you could name a few. Thanks again for the response.
Some of the issues are on my review titled The Long Journey published 4 days ago
Amandaasked
Any feedback on recent builds in the Hunter area?
1 answer
Hi Amanda,
We are in Port Macquarie so I can’t answer that for you. However I’m sure the process is just the same in the Hunter as it is up here.
Best of luck,
Shelley
Cenz11asked
We have been comparing builders of late and Coral Homes prices and designs really caught our attention. We are looking to build in an older established area of the Hills District and wondering if anyone has any experience and feedback of their NSW builders, particularly around the Hills area. Noticing some vast discrepancies around QLD vs NSW reviews, therefore presuming higher NSW trade costs may be the cause of poorer finishes?
4 answers
Thanks Rohit, will definitely take you up on your offer. Will PM you.
Not sure how Coral homes NSW compares to Queensland Gold Coast but we were very happy with the quality of the build and found their prices to be very competitive
We’re looking at Coral homes, Domaine and Simonds. I am aware of some really concerning bad reviews for Coral but have also found positive ones especially for the one in Marsden Park which we will be dealing with. It really comes down to the tradesmen on the job and site supervisor
Elly Aasked
We have recently visited to Marsden Park display home & I am wondering if anyone can provide some feedback about their building process. We are thinking to build double story home and interested to know about their product range for upgrades.
