Just wanted to thank Paul from the Aura office.
He has been a great help, very patient and not pushy at all for a Salesperson. Very helpful with answering all of our questions and getting things in order. My wife and I are very excited for the next step of our build process.
Thanks Homes by CMA

Thanks to the very professional team from CMA we have a beautiful home.

published

Being a registered builder myself we initially thought of building the house ourselves and looking at the prices of 12 project home builders they were 20% cheaper. Thanks to Greg Farmer we decided to go with CMA due to all their standard inclusions.
Can’t fault the workmanship and the very professional approach of all CMA’s staff and subcontractors extremely well coordinated.
Thanks to our supervisor Tim and all the office staff Amanda, Joelene, Heleanor and Steph we have ended up with a great home and the build time was amazing in before Christmas.

building with CMA was great. I did not have any major hiccups the entire build. and the small hiccup that did happen was promptly rectified by my building manager Tim who did an amazing job of organising the entire build. I would build with CMA again in a heart beat

Excellent help and guidance during planning

published

Simon gave us first class service during selection and planning for our upcoming new home. He is very patient and made good plain sensible suggestions. This is not the first home we have had built, but up to now it has been the easiest to plan and the final cost is close to our estimate. We are looking forward to when the building commences

Questions & Answers

Rasari N.

Rasari N.asked

Was considering to use them as builder for our 1st home, got excited after reading many 5 start reviews, but my heart sank after reading horrible experiences. Seems like there is no middle ground with this builder. They are either 5 star or 1 start. Confused which one to believe.

6 answers

Hi Rasari N,

I can only vouch for our experience, which surely was 5 stars.
We build our very first home through Plantation Homes, which was also good, however homes by CMA provided us customised solutions at very good prices and quality

Hope this helps:-)

Homes by CMA
Chris B.Homes by CMA

Hi Rasari,
Out of all the Product Reviews we only have 1 x 1 star review, which I think is pretty impressive.
There is one thing that I've learnt, and that is: we cannot please everyone.
It is simply impossible.
And if you do find a Builder that only has 5 stars (assuming 30 reviews+) I would be a worried in regards to how "real" those reviews are to be honest.
Regards,
Chris Baptista - Director

What concerns me is you have not responded to negative feedbacks and only to positive ones.

Hi Chris, I am planning to build an investment property, I visited one of your display homes and found your iEndeavour plans interesting and economical. I was told that we cannot make any changes, however I want few changes, nothing with structural but with the available colour schemes, can you let me know if that is a possibility, also want to know your referral fees? I was referred by a friend and I was told your referral fee is $2000 by one consultant and $1000 by one consultant, so want to check what is the correct referral fee? Can you let me know about both the above questions and I will be happy to proceed.

Hi Raj,
I spoke to Vince about the garage door colour change and I am happy to allow that for you :) but any other colour will be very hard. The iEndeavour is an unbeatable product, and to have such incredible low prices we have everything pre-done and we have worked very hard with supplier based on those specific colour scheme to get the absolute best price.
In regards to the referral fees, again being an iEndeavour the maximum we will allow is $1,000.
I hope that answers your questions and we look forward to building a beautiful home for you !
Regards,
Chris Baptista - Director

Thanks for your response Chris, I think we are pretty much interested in iEndeavour, however is that possible for an appointment with your colour selection consultant this week, want to make sure that we decide on the colour scheme. I already visited your office in north lakes and I was already shown few options but want to check if an hour appointment can be booked.

I have already spoken to Clare and put in couple of requests with only one change as per below

Option 1 - If we decide to go for modern iEndeavour option we want to change the colour of garage door as discussed to surfmist.

Option 2 - If we decide to go with contemporary iEndeavour option we want the front entry door from the other option.

We want only one change depending on what option we decide, Hope the above makes sense and you are happy with the changes.

I have one more final question - if I decide to install ducted aircon in future after handover, do I need to have three phase power? Sorry for asking all these questions, we don’t want to delay things and want to finalise things this week. Thanks for your assistance.

Hello Chris B,

I am a first home buyer and was homes by CMA was recommended by one of my mates.
So looked yall up online and was impressed with the feedback past clients have posted. Also have 90% of business from word of mouth is extremely impressive!!

I reached out to one of your sales team member few days back however, I am finding working with him a bit challenging. I have provided him all my requirements and emphasized that time is of essence as i have to close out financial clause asap. I have also given him my budget.
I understand he must be a busy man dealing with other customers. I would appreciate if we could chat about my requirements as a first home buyer and how you could add me to your tally of happy customers . I am optimist that the way i am treated is an anomaly.

We dealt with Simon at Newport and found him fantastic. The guy at North Harbour was also extremely helpful when we went to look at the display home.
