Find your nearest display home, and review our inclusions before you visit.
Know your budget
The first thing to check off your list is a budget for the overall project. Price range underpins all your decisions, so come to terms with exactly how much you can afford before visiting. This helps you avoid wasting time, and a lot of disappointment, on something beyond your means.
Do your research and identify your needs
Spend time researching builders to find one that matches your needs. Browse company websites, photos and 3D virtual tours to narrow in on a design before visiting in person, and ask friends and family for recommendations. Make sure you understand what you need, whether that is outdoor areas, a study, multiple bathrooms or room for a growing family. A basic list of what is important to you is crucial when visiting.
Pack some essentials and ask questions
Do not arrive empty handed. Bring a pen, notepad and your phone or a camera. Taking notes and photos of designs and layouts that catch your eye will be handy when making decisions later. Spend plenty of time at each display home and investigate every nook and cranny. Finally, ask as many questions as you can. Find out what tiles are used in the kitchen, ask about paint finishes, and never feel self-conscious about it. The sales team are there to help.
