TWO builders with a combined 40 years’ experience have launched Valcon Homes in the Redlands, with their first display home at Thornlands Waterline development.
They promise to help buyers with after-sale care.
Valcon directors - Tim Douglas and Jason Doerr - already have 20 single and double storey four bedroom, two bathroom designs available, with scope to tailor floor plans or contract a custom build.
Mr Douglas said Valcon would work to a guaranteed time frame and price and would deliver homes that were designed to offer versatility as owners moved through different stages of life.
“One of the biggest barriers for buyers considering building a new home is the concern that construction costs will increase before their home is complete,’’ he said.
“In some cases where builders do not offer a guaranteed fixed price, costs can unexpectedly increase by thousands of dollars and can wipe out the benefit of any government grants or incentives.
“By working to a fixed price and guaranteed time frame, purchasers can have confidence that they are in control and won’t need to dip into their savings or be inconvenienced by having to wait longer than expected to move into their new home.’’
Mr Douglas said the pair had designed homes that had versatile room spaces that could be transformed to suit changes in lifestyle, like the arrival of children.
Mr Doerr said the home builder market was also incredibly under serviced in terms of after-sale care, meaning purchasers often did not receive advice or follow up once they move into their new home.
“We will be there throughout the entire purchasing process to assist our buyers right from start to finish - and will continue the support even after the work is complete and the keys have been handed over,’’ he said.
