Hi there, I am looking to build my first home with my other half (his first home as well) so we would be eligible for the first home owners grant. A few questions: (May seem silly but I just want to know)
1. The $45,000 promotion going on at the moment - how does that fit into the costing of the house? Can it be used as part of the deposit?
2. I have bad credit history (Bad decisions made in the past) and my other half has a great credit history - has anyone have any experience dealing with WOW Homes in this situation and had much issues get a low deposit loan?
Thank you :)

Hi, Thank you for your question. Would you like me to get one of our sales reps to give you a call to answer all your questions and discuss your options?
Many thanks

Alanab, do your homework, the huge promo is an increase overall to the house price. Wow homes are actually one of the most expensive and only back their structural warranty with the bare minimum allowed. Not even close to the industry standard of 25 years.

How many weeks/months has it taken to build your WOw homes?
9 answers
It took longer then others because we had finansual issuse, with the issuse it took over a year but once we had everything we needed to qualify it took roughly 7 month, the house itself was built quickly,the paper work was a head ache but worth it.
Ours took 7-8 months for the build
8 monthsssss, I built with b1 homes my house was completed from brickwork stage in 15 weeks

Are Wow homes actually serious about all their legal comments? It is kind of put off as I was thinking to look at their designs and I see these standard comments in every post. Looks to me over protective and probably your customers were right.

An interesting insight into the business perhaps?
I don't think they'd put comments like that unless they really had to. People can write anything on these forums. Tall poppy syndrome.
I've built with them twice and been really happy. I'll build with them again as soon as I can afford to. Building in new development areas I've had chats with others building around me. Lots have had bad experiences. Same builders names come up. I haven't heard anything bad from people also building with Wow.
They have just included a ban on social media in their contracts with a 25k fee if broken looks like they have a lot to hide.

how to get DA approval
Melanyasked
I wanted to write a review but it asks for DA approval. Where can I get that? thank you
2 answers
Hi Melanie, did you work out how to get DA approval to submit a review?
Hi Melany, All major builds and renovations require a Development Approval or Building Permit number from the local council before construction can begin.
It should be located within your build’s official documents.
