Volume Builder vs Custom Builder for a New Home Build, with Michael

Volume Builder vs Custom Builder for a New Home Build, with Michael

Hello! This is Episode 324, and in it, I’m continuing my conversation with Michael about their new home project in Western Australia.

This is a home that Michael and his partner are building to retire to, in a beautiful location on an acreage site.

If you haven’t listened to the first part of my conversation with Michael, you can find Part 1 in Episode 323. Head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/323 to listen now or grab the full transcript. It’s a great introduction to Michael’s project, including the design process for their new home.

In this episode, Michael goes into more detail about how he weighed up volume builders and custom builders, so he could review the best solution for constructing their new home and make an informed choice.

And in investigating different types of builders, he also did a really good job of drilling into the detail of his project so he could compare apples with apples when reviewing their costing information as well.

He shares more about all of that with us in this episode.

If you’ve been assuming a volume builder will be a cheaper way to build, or trying to weigh up volume builder vs custom builder, you’ll definitely want to hear about how that research has gone for Michael.
