Building With Confidence from Day One
Building With Confidence from Day One
At Eight Homes, we know building your dream home should be an exciting and rewarding journey, not one filled with stress and uncertainty! Too often, hidden delays can creep into a build, stretching out timelines and testing patience. That’s why we’ve designed our process, and our 88 Build Days Promise, to help you move in sooner without compromising on quality.
By understanding the common causes of hidden delays, and how Eight Homes actively addresses them, you’ll see why more families are choosing to build with us.
Planning and Permits: Handled Upfront
One of the biggest causes of hidden delays is inadequate planning or unexpected issues with permits. At Eight Homes, we take this off your shoulders with a streamlined, transparent approach:
Clear Pathway to Site Start: Our easy selection process and locked-in site works mean no last-minute surprises.
- Fixed Price Transparency: What we quote you is what you pay, no unexpected extras along the way.
- Council & Permits: We manage the complexity for you, so you’re not left chasing paperwork that holds up your build.
Weather and Site Conditions: Minimised by Smart Scheduling
Australia’s weather can be unpredictable, but it doesn’t have to derail your build. While some external factors are outside of anyone’s control, our simplified processes and efficient planning help keep your home on track.
88 Build Days Promise: For standard single-storey homes under 25sq, we guarantee completion in just 88 build days in Zone 1 greenfield areas.
- Clarity on Larger Builds: For bigger or double-storey homes, you’ll know exactly what timeframe to expect, with our timelines clearly set out from day one.
- Site-Specific Guidance: Our team will walk you through how your unique site conditions may affect timing, giving you confidence to plan ahead.
Budget Management: No Nasty Surprises
Many homeowners experience delays due to budget blowouts. At Eight Homes, affordability and transparency are at the heart of what we do.
- Hand on Heart Fixed Price: No shifting goalposts. Your sales quote matches your contract.
- Locked in Site Costs: We fix these from acceptance of your quote, so there are no surprise charges later.
- Low Deposit Options: With as little as $888 upfront, you can secure your build date and lock in your price with confidence.
Bank Processing Delays
Each time your builder issues a stage claim (for example, after completing slab, frame, or lock-up), it needs to be sent to your bank for payment. Banks can often take a few business days to review and process these claims before releasing funds.
To avoid unnecessary hold-ups on site, make sure you forward stage claims to your bank as soon as you receive them. Acting quickly helps your builder keep moving and ensures your home progresses smoothly through each stage.
Communication: We Keep It Simple
Poor communication between builders and homeowners is one of the most frustrating causes of delays. That’s why we’ve built a process centred on clarity, trust, and collaboration.
Easy-to-Follow Process: We strip away the jargon and keep things simple.
- Regular Check-Ins: You’ll always know where your build is up to and what’s next.
- Collaborative Partnership: We welcome your involvement while giving you the reassurance of our expertise and proven process.
Innovative Solutions That Save Time
We don’t just talk about efficiency, we build it into every part of our process.
- Efficient Designs: Our homes are designed with simplicity in mind, loved by trades for their buildability and loved by families for their quality and features.
- Technology & Tracking: From sales through to handover, our streamlined systems keep your journey organised and on track.
Prefabrication Where It Counts: Using efficient build methods helps minimise delays while maintaining quality.
