The right build

A NEW home building service has been established to assist clients find the builder most suited to their needs.

Working on the same philosophy as a mortgage broker, Tristan Kirkham has created New Home Building Brokers, after identifying the need for a tailored builder selection service and

“Typically, those looking to build need to work with sales representatives from a number of builders to get an understanding of how much their build or renovation would cost,” Mr Kirkham said.

“With us, there is one contact point, not three agents trying to secure a commission.”

He said NHBB would work with a range of clients across varying price points and situations.

“Our service is designed to find the best deal for the client, not the builder,” Mr Kirkham told WA Business News.

“Like a mortgage broker, our service is free. Our fees are collected from the commission normally paid to sales representatives working for a builder.”

Mr Kirkham has more than 10 years’ experience in building and construction, holding a range of high-level, management and sales positions with Lorimer Homes, Residential Attitudes and Exclusive Residence.

“For those who don’t have experience in the industry, building can be a very overwhelming and confusing experience,” Mr Kirkham said

Mr Kirkwham said his plan was to grow NHBB to provide its services across the state, including regional areas.
