Nick’s top building tips:
1. Ascertain your budget for the home, land, and finishes. Work out your must-haves as well as things that could possibly be done at a later stage if required.
2. Location, location, location! Decide on which area you would like to live in. Consider the things that are important to you and what you would like to live close to.
3. What size block do you need? Think about the size of home you require and get advice from an expert.
4. Choose your builder. Research before you decide on your builder and be clear on your requirements for your home design, inclusions, siteworks and building time frames.
5. Your consultant is crucial. Look for an experienced consultant who understands your requirements and the potential of your block, and will be available through all stages of the building journey.
6. Decide on what features you may want to include in your home design and think about the style of home you would like. Do you prefer a modern look, Hamptons style, contemporary, or traditional?
7. Lastly – enjoy the building journey!
