What our clients have to say

“Every challenge was met with a solution, and we now have our dream home, exactly as we imagined it when we first drew it on paper”

After an extensive journey visiting numerous display homes and speaking with several builders, we ultimately chose to engage Ownit Homes, and we’re so glad we did. From the outset, our sales consultant, Jason, was exceptional. He offered valuable insights and creative ideas that helped shape our vision, but what truly stood out was Ownit Homes’ willingness and ability to help us design and build a fully custom dream home at a great price, something many other builders were unwilling to do.

Daniel, Tanah Merah

“Ownit has exceeded all my expectations. They transformed my ideas into a home that was better than I could have ever imagined.”

Repeat customer and absolutely thrilled with my new Custom Built home!

Shelly, Hendra

“We can confidently say that the house is fantastic and we sincerely thank Ownit Homes for helping us achieve our dream home.”

Building a house is a long and challenging journey, especially after we experienced the bankruptcy of our previous builder.

Ben, Wishart

“I have built twice with Ownit Homes and never have let me down. The team is incredible, I have so many people to thank for.”

I would like to share my personal experience building with Ownit Homes, to somehow assist those of you considering building your dream home.

Tatiana, The Gap

“Ownit's commitment to value and customer satisfaction really stood out”

Our experience with Ownit Homes was truly rewarding. While the pre-site and contract stages were quite strict (understandably so, as it was a custom build), we appreciated the clarity and structure they provided from the outset. What stood out most was the building phase. It was smooth, efficient, and impressively fast. Our home was completed in under 5 months! Even during the wet season, work continued consistently without delays. We were also pleasantly surprised by a few thoughtful inclusions at no extra cost, which really showed Ownit's commitment to value and customer satisfaction. We’re so happy with our new home and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Ownit Homes to anyone wanting a quality custom build delivered with professionalism and speed.

Omogbolahan, Redbank

“This is the second home I’ve built with Ownit Homes, and I wouldn’t hesitate to build a third.”

This is the second home I’ve built with Ownit Homes, and I wouldn’t hesitate to build a third. The workmanship is excellent, and communication throughout the process has always been clear and timely. Ownit Homes is a long-established, financially secure family company, and I’ve found the whole experience both smooth and rewarding.

Gerard, Holland Park

“From clueless first-time builders to proud homeowners, Ownit Homes guided us every step of the way and 42 years later, our home is still part of our family story”

As first time builders, we literally had no clue of how to build our home. A recommendation led us to Ownit Homes. From the moment we stepped into their display homes, we knew we had found our forever home. Our naivety and lack of confidence quickly disappeared as the Ownit team, took us under their wing and guided us every step of the way as they constructed our home. It was completed on time and on budget!

Russell & Christine, Tarragindi

“Ownit Homes deserves to be recognised as a 7-star building company”

Nowadays, it’s hard to find a trustworthy building company that treats clients like mates. Here are some reasons why I highly recommend Ownit Homes to build your next home (not just a place to crash).

Louis, Regents Park

“Thank you all for your wonderful support in making our dreams a reality.”

I want to take this opportunity to say thank you to the team. You have a really good team who looks after the clients. I am personally impressed with their timely response to my email, and queries during the build of my house. If i do not say a few words about the following team members, I think it is not fair for them:

Chaminda, Regents Park

“It’s been 5 years since we got the keys, and I can tell you - it’s the best decision we’ve made”

I arranged a knock down and rebuild with Ownit Homes and after nearly a year of discussing with multiple builders and visiting every display village in SEQ, I went with Ownit. Building was about as stressful as anything I've ever done, given I know nothing about construction. The team at Ownit were genuinely kind and helpful through the process. It was 5 years ago we got the keys to our home and I can tell you it's the best decision we've made. Thank you for helping us to build our family home.

Scott, Tarragindi

“Amazing home design and very friendly team to work with”

We researched many brisbane builders and chose Ownit Homes. Very happy to have made that decision, amazing home design and very friendly team to work with. Will recommend to friends and family

Tim, Sunnybank

“Ownit Homes did a wonderful job at building our new home in Manly.”

“From the first time we looked at the display home at Rochedale and spoke with John we decided that Ownit was the one to build our forever home. The initial process to have plans finalised was slow however once construction started the build progressed smoothly. Construction supervisor Bob promised us he'd ensure we had a Display home quality build and true to his word we have a beautiful home that fills us with pride. Trades staff did a great job with excellent attention to detail. All of the team at Ownit need congratulating - if we had any questions / concerns they were dealt with promptly and professionally. All specifications / variations were explained to us and clearly documented including provisional sums for site works - unexpected bonus was for us to receive a lower final invoice to reflect unused provisional $'s. I'd strongly recommend Ownit Homes to anyone building.”

“They pay attention to detail and importantly – take pride in providing a favourable client outcome”

Planning to build a house - for the first time in our lives - is a big task!

Colette & Steffen, Tamborine Mountain

“Thank you, Ownit, for making me feel like one of the team, not just another client”

I would like to share my personal experience building with Ownit Homes, to somehow assist those of you considering building your dream home. It is a very scary decision to build, especially for people like me that doesn't know the difference from a tool to another. There is also the constant public fear of news about companies over promising and underdelivering. My personal experience is something worth sharing, because we tent to publish the bad but not the good, and there is real professionals that deserve the credit.

“We built with Ownit Homes a year ago and couldn't be happier!”

We built with Ownit Homes a year ago and couldn't be happier! From the moment we walk through their display home to the handover of our new home, everyone was so genuine and friendly, from our salesman, to our colour consultant, the head office staff and our supervisor. What I really liked was that everything was included in their homes, so I knew exactly what I was getting by walking through their display homes. Our salesman took a lot of time helping us design the best home for our family and from the many homes they have on display, this process was made a lot easier. Our home is everything we imagined and more and the quality of the workmanship is 10 out of 10. The home seemed to go up very quickly and anytime we had a question along the way, someone at Ownit Homes was very happy to help us. We are over the moon with our new home and highly recommend Ownit Homes to anyone wanting to build a home.

Leisa, Coorparoo

“This was our first build and we are so glad we did it through Ownit homes”

This was our first build and we are so glad we did it through Ownit homes. We were let down by another company and the Ownit team swooped in and went out of their way to make our dream a reality. From beginning to end the process was simple and fun. We felt like all of the team at Ownit were approachable and supportive and fantastic communicators. Ownit really understands the financial and emotional investment it takes to make a home and we felt that they were with us all the way. They understood our budget and worked with us to make sure that it was maintained. A year on and we are still impressed by the quality of products and workmanship throughout. Would recommend to anyone looking to make their dreams for a beautiful high quality home come true!

“We had a new home built by Ownit in 1990”

We had a new home built by Ownit in 1990. We saw the beautiful show home they had in Beams Rd so asked for exactly the same for us (tiles, paint colours, everything). We were told this is the standard you can expect of your home, just tell us and it will be fixed. We were told it be started on a certain date and finished on a date. It all happened like clockwork. A wonderful experience for us. 2 minor faults afterwards which were soon fixed. Told a certain price and not $1 more did it cost. Some people expect to much I feel?

James Donald

“Smooth construction. Great staff who were helpful along the whole process.”
