Great experience so far
We are currently at the pre-construction stage. Our experience so far has been great. Ray at the sales office and Charles at tender presentation have been very helpful and patient. Kayla from admin did a great job. She was well organised and prompt in responding to our emails. All our questions were answered in a timely manner and the process was fast and hassle free. We are now just about to commence construction. Hoping to have the same great experience with the construction.

Perfect first home with Eden Brae
Supervisors Mark & Ivo were outstanding at every stage of the build. Constantly on top of everything and the overall build was excellent. Construction even finished ahead of schedule.
Emily was great at communicating the entire admin process and anything that was required of me. She was very knowledgeable and transparent which provided me the peace of mind.
I'd like to thank the Eden Brae Team for delivering a great build and would highly recommend them.

Great team, happy first home building!
Georges was an amazing supervisor, very prompt and punctual.
Very organised and well communicated even though the reception was really poor(the house was built on a new street).
Also the admin team was great in communication throughout the construction, always available for us to call and clear communication both written and verbal.
Thank you Eden Brae Homes, I will see you again in my next home building.

Extremely poor after sales maintenance service
Built quality, Very poor & substandard in so many areas. Garage got quite big cracks even before handover & they aren’t ready to rectify it despite so many requests. Plumbing is par below standard. Hot water pipe burst inside the ceiling & maintenance manager said it happened due to rain. Front entry door misaligned by quite a significant margin, again they said it’s ok. En-suite door continuously rubbing & scratching, he is continuously sending painters to patch up the paint, instead of changing the door. Maintenance manager [name removed] a...Read more
lways try to cover up all repair issues & created lots of hassle for us. Now hot water system pressure valve is malfunctioned & he said its out of warranty, whereas he was the one who told us it’s normal & don’t need to worry (within warranty period). He is the most untrustworthy, unprofessional & unethical person we ever experienced at eden brae homes. At 13 weeks inspection, he argued in almost every repair job. After handover, they will treat you as they don’t know you. We are still struggling to get things done which started broken down towards the end of 2 yr period or immediately after that. No courtesy, no values, no after sales service promises kept.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

We went with Eden Brae as they ticked most of the boxes and were slightly better value than other major builders, they weren't the cheapest but seemed to offer fair value.
We had an OK experience throughout pre construction but unfortunately the end product just wasn't up to standard
Going into construct everything seemed OK, our first site supervisor [name removed] only ever called us once to complain that we had hired an external building inspector to do stage checks inspections.
I feel like he took this out on u...Read more

Outstanding Professional Service
My wife and I are extremely happy with the way Jay Dunstone, our building supervisor, dealt with us and the way he managed the construction. From start to finish we felt that we were in good hands. Whilst there were building issues along the way, Jay tackled them very satisfactorily.

Jay Dunstone is the Best SS - Thanks Eden Brae
We built Cremorne 30 MK2 with Eden Brae. Our experience with Eden Brae has been very good so far. Their staff is very professional and I would like to thank whole team of Eden Brae ( especially JAY DUNSTONE) who really works hard to look after their clients. I am so far very happy with the building of our new house in Marsden Park and I am extremely happy with our site supervisor JAY DUNSTONE who made this building journey quite easy for us. He is very professional and very easy to work with and always answered my calls and emails with any ques...Read more
tions or assistance I ever needed. Very calm and empathetic person and will always go extra mile to provide great service. He is managing our build very well. If you are building an Eden Brae home, ask for 'Jay - The Legend'. We have a lot of friends looking to build their dream homes. Will definitely recommend Eden Brae to all of them. Hoping that our settlement occurs soon and we can start living in our dream home.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Excellent experience. Very Professional!! Job # 0023747
Our first home experience, completed all of paper/contract work and construction has just commenced as I write this review.
We were lucky to have Joanne F, Customer Service Adminstrator helping us all the way from contract -> council approval -> variations -> home gallery selections -> Release for construction
Joanne is patient, professional, transparent, good knowledge of process and made it a pleasant journey. As a first timer, we had lots of question (many times dumb questions) but Joanne was very composed in addressing our queries. Also...Read more
, Joanne kept us informed on progress of each steps and anticipated turnaround times. Yes, felt EBH initial sales team could have done better being transparent in taking care of few of basic straightforward requirements rather than leaving it for variations later on costing us extra money, which was the only sad part. We have got Jay as supervisor and eagerly waiting to see good progress in terms of construction and see to settle in our new home soon.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Be careful with your sales rep and be careful with your variations and provisional allowance
We are finalising all PCVs before the build can start. My main grievance is the quote we received far exceeds the provisional allowance we put in. We put in the provisional allowance under the guidance of their sales rep, and we told her exactly what we wanted. A couple of examples, we told her we wanted wide engineered timber floor boards throughout except wet areas, and she told us $12k should cover the upgrade. The quote for the timber floors came back nearly $40k. We told her for the kitchen we wanted the most expensive stone top with wate...Read more
rfall ends (we've been to Home Options Gallery before we signed with them so we knew roughly what we like), and again she told us $12k should cover the upgrade. The quote came back $40k+. How could the sales rep be so ignorant? Or is this deliberate? It has thrown out all my numbers and I have to cut back on other things trying to make the build stick to a budget. People go down the road to build a new house so that they get what they wanted to a certain degree, I was realistic in knowing that I couldn't get everything I wanted because our budget is not infinite but I've told them at the very beginning the things that mattered with enough detail and double checked with them whether our allowance was enough. It makes me more than angry, this under quoting behaviour is either incompetent or misconduct, either is undesirable in someone you have entrusted with your lifetime savings with. We have chosen one of their most expensive houses in the prestige series, and we have paid for packaged upgrades. You would think this should have a reasonable amount of 'prestigious' or 'luxurious' inclusions. Truth is, if you stop here, what you get is a largely vanilla product with a few upgrades but nowhere near what normal people would call 'luxurious'. Recognising this, we have allowed another $200k for various variations and upgrades, and it turns out it still is not enough. The whole business model is also deeply questionable. Because their base product (even for a prestige series house) is so basic, you almost have to have variations and upgrades. With each category, they only have one supplier. No competition means high prices. Prices from those suppliers are dictated by Eden Brae. I understand most builders need to make a margin but some of their prices when comparing against the market make your eyes water. An example, to upgrade a standard MDF flush panel door to a high door (an additional 30cm in height), they charged $72 per door (this is just for the additional 30cm MDF) up until recently and now they are charging $97 per door. This is a whopping 35% increase. Who else in this low inflation world is having such steep increases? To rub insult in injury, the same standard door (same door from same brand) retails in Bunnings for $31. Please note the $31 is for the whole door, not just a little section of it. You know those seemingly attractive upgrade packages that appears to be good value? Some of those upgrades are just hooks for you to spend more money. One of their popular upgrade is increased ceiling height, our sales rep didn't even mention to me that we might need to increase the height of the doors to make the higher ceiling look good. They must have realised this, as in their latest promotion, they have included some higher doors (not all doors) with the increased ceiling height. I don't know exactly what relationship Home Options Gallery and Eden Brae have, the suppliers in the gallery might pay rent and/or a commission or rebate to Eden Brae. There is no doubt once you are signed with Eden Brae, you are a captive audience to those suppliers, it is hard to walk away without spending more money. Eden Brae may not be the only project home builder who does this. It seems they all operate on similar models. This sector reminds me of the financial services sector before the Royal Commission. I think it is high time for a Royal Commission on the building sector.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Great Experience!
We have had a great experience with Eden Brae. Their processes are very structured, transparent and organised. Our special thanks to Brittany (our CSA) for her patience and understanding with all the questions and enquires we had. The way she promptly responded every time is truly appreciable. Brittany’s replacement Kayla also proved herself as a friendly and helpful CSA who is still easy to reach to solve any build issues/ problems and always provides information in a professional and timely manner.

Jay was my supervisor building with Eden Brae. He is very friendly and assisted us with all our concerns throughout all stages of construction. He paid attention to details while tradies were working onsite and paid regular visits to ensure my house was built to high standards. Highly recommend him. Thanks Jay

Stress free, positive build experience.
Our experience with Eden Brae was extremely positive right from the start. Because this was our first home build the initial flow of information was overwhelming, but everyone we worked with at Eden Brae was really helpful and helped us with recommendations and guidance to make the right choices and decisions. Everyone had our best interest at heart.

peed up our loan application process, which was getting held up by the bank. She provided all the documentations they needed promptly, going above and beyond to help extend deadlines for our promotions, even though delays were by third parties - banks, Sydney water etc. She really knew her way around and explained the process and expectations in great detail, and guided us all the way through to build, with experienced recommendations on choices etc. Ivo Jajcevic, our Construction Supervisor, was extremely professional, knowledgeable and patient with us during the home building process. Working with him was such a pleasure! Even though Eden Brae provided build cameras that gave us eyes on how the build was progressing, Ivo took it a step further. He provided us with a weekly detailed report on the progress of our home, which was so helpful and gave us a lot of reassurance. What impressed me about Ivo, aside from his politeness and professionalism, was the fact that he really took pride in ensuring high quality output. During our inspections he pointed out defects which we missed out and got them promptly fixed out for us. Ivo was also very responsive, and provided prompt assistance and feedback, even during after hours, going above and beyond to help with the enquiries we had during the build phase. His typical response to us was always: "Don't worry, I'll take good care of you". The true litmus test was post handover. We found a few minor defects and reached out to Ivo. True to his word he responded promptly, arranged for tradies to come in and even personally came into the site to ensure things were done properly. We were extremely happy with the end result. Ivo had paid attention to detail and all the finishing were very professionally done. I know dealing with construction companies can be a gamble, but our experience with Eden Brae was very positive, especially when dealing with Ivo and Debbie. Would definitely highly recommend them, and would not hesitate to use Eden Brae if we decided to build in Sydney again.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

We got the Home we dreamed of
I had high expectations with Eden Brae after working for a home builder myself. As always the sales staff were professional and extremely helpful, showing flexibility and design to give us the home we love. Our Contract presenter was clear and concise, ensuring we knew all conditions and inclusions and defiantly highlighted somethings we missed. Through the whirlwind of selections the staff were pleasant and patient.
During the actual build, while we were subject to a few site manager and admin changes, I can honestly say they were seamless a...Read more
nd no delays occurred in these transitions. We were provided with numerous opportunities to few the build in progress and appreciated the transparency on inspections. While some little things still need to be completed on the home, I defiantly appreciate Eden Brae and their staff pushing forward to get us this early Christmas present, I have nothing but confidence that the extremely minor things like little fix ups will be completed (Bookings have already been made!) and overall has left me extremely happy and impressed!Similar opinion?

Awesome
First time building a house can be a nerve wracking experience. Thanks to Allysha Bennet, she has been very helpful and prompt in her reply whenever I have some issues with regards to the pre build of my home. Its a pleasure working with her. Shout out to the good team of consultants in the Home Option Department especially to Amy. I would recommend Eden Brae to my friends because of their excellent service.

Fantastic! -Eden Brae were really easy to deal with
Eden Brae were excellent from start to finish with Jamie (Sales Consultant), Charles (Contract presenter), Rhyannon (CSA) and Ryan (Site supervisor) all extremely professional, knowledgeable and patient with us during the home building process. We have now moved in for approximately 3 months and I am very impressed with the build quality and we have received numerous compliments on our house. The construction was completed ahead of schedule and we managed to stay under budget. Thanks again Eden Brae!

Kayla Griffin customers service
Kayla has been great through the admin stage of our build. She has been very thorough and informative. All Admin was organised promptly. This is the second time building with Eden Brae. Our last build was also very efficiently managed and I honestly didnt think that my experience could possibly live up to my last one. However Kayla has exceeded our expectations in a professional and prompt manner
