Building Case Study: Absolute Beachfront House in Scarborough

Building Case Study – Noosa North Rise Corner Block

Hello Diane and Ben, I have been meaning to get this letter away to you since before Christmas, but we have been thoroughly enjoying…doing jobs around the home, or entertaining and showing off our home, or just loving living in the home you built for us. It was a great experience working with you from start to finish. We were very grateful for your suggestions and thank you for being patient with us when we were making suggestions and or changes. Our monthly meetings were always successful and productive and above all friendly and fun. We found your communication with us very reassuring during construction.

Suncity Homes built our waterfront property in Scarborough. It was designed to be low maintenance so we could lock it and leave it when we go travelling. They helped advise us on building materials that would suit the beachfront location and salty air. Ben was easy to work with. He always listened to what we had to say and came up with good advice. It’s a lovely spot and we’re very happy with it.

Judy B

I wasn’t keen to build as I’d heard too many horror stories but we wanted to live in a well-designed, modern home so building seemed to be the only way. I was totally reassured by Suncity Homes as they have an excellent reputation and promised us that they could build what we wanted within our budget. Everyone is easy to work with and they took care of everything including finding an architect and commissioning plans which saved time and money. The whole process was relatively easy. I’d definitely build with Suncity Homes again. I’d have no hesitation.

We have just moved into our dream beach house at Currimundi and could not be happier with having chosen Suncity Homes as our builders. Choosing the right builder is one of the hardest decisions when building a house since it is so important to select professionals who will really care about your project as much as you do. We found the team at Suncity Homes to be proactive and helpful every step of the way.

Communication was high at all stages and as a result we had no surprises along the way. The finish of our home was everything we hoped it would be and reflected the high level of care and attention by everyone who worked on our home. We highly recommend Suncity Builders to anyone looking to build their own dream home.

I am delighted to provide this testimonial for Suncity Homes. Building a new home is very stressful and fraught with many traps and unknowns even for the experienced let alone a first time builder. With our first meeting with Thene we felt comfortable and reassured at his professional manner. He took us through the various stages and even accompanied us, and made suggestions, whilst we discussed the design with the Design Consultant. It was a long journey and the good relationship we had with the team made it bearable.

It was a great experience from start to finish. We are delighted with our wonderful new home and in particular with the high standards of care taken, quality and finish. We much appreciate the various suggestions given which have made a difference. Ben is highly skilled and has been a wonderful project manager and supervised his tradespeople well and was always available for discussions and updates. So to Thene, Diane and Ben thank you for a highly professional and wonderful job. I am delighted to recommend you and also talk to any future clients if necessary.

Dear Ben, Both Janelle and I would sincerely like to thank you for building our dream home. You were so great to collaborate with during the construction of our build. Your expertise, calmness and patience made us feel very confident.

We were building “virgins” when we came across a house and land package with Suncity Homes in Noosa Northrise. When we enquired about the land we realised our mobile number had been written down wrong but Thene went above and beyond and dialed multiple numbers until he tracked us down.

Our journey then started, Diane and Thene gave us so much time in the design and concept stage that when we signed to build we had everything covered. We were then ushered into the hands of building manager Ben, who looked after us so well. Nothing was too much, even when we woke in the night panicking about something, an early morning call to him was greeted with calm and care.

The house we have created with them all is our dream home and has exceeded our expectations.

Thank you to you all for helping us get a dream home

SunCity Homes is Seymour Group’s preferred home builder having successfully completed 4 architect designed luxury homes and one renovation. We currently have another 2 architect-designed luxury homes under construction and we are very confident that they will be delivered within the building timeframe, on budget and to a very high standard. We would not hesitate to recommend SunCity Homes to anyone looking to build or renovate. Their professionalism and attention to detail is also shared by their loyal sub-contractors making the process very enjoyable and the finished product highly saleable and well received by our end buyers.

We wanted to give you some feedback on how we felt the journey of building our new home at Coondoo went from our perspective…. From the beginning, Graham’s being a registered builder could have presented a very different client. As well as that we were very experienced having built two quality new homes in the past ten years. From the outset though, we got the impression that your professional manner and approach was not in any way ‘phased’ by that. Initially, we were looking at (3) builders and after our meeting with you, we felt that you were our preferred builder from all the non-cost criteria, we really hoped you could at least meet our budget; which you did. We could both comfortably say that given that this was to be our final built house (hopefully) it was by far the best building experience for both of us.

A builder can only lay claim to being a great builder if they engage the services of great contractors, and without exception, they all did a quality job, were friendly to deal with and left the site clean and tidy…..and we would appreciate if you could pass on our thanks to them all. Ben your whole approach to changes was so easy; whilst there were not that many, the professional, matter of fact way you costed, presented and completed the variations made it so easy. At times you notified us of price reductions that we were not expecting and went out of your way to ensure you sourced the most appropriate product for our needs which you seemed to understand perfectly.

There was no time when we were any way disappointed by the quality. We really felt you listened and considered our needs. There was only one time Graham was concerned regarding the schedule. You really took the time to understand and give us the information that enabled us to see how you were managing the schedule. Ben your unflappable disposition working with the subcontractors and all the other dynamics made our relationship a pleasure.

We really feel we got exceptional value from the finish of the house and the way you managed the whole journey and our relationship. I would have no hesitation in recommending you guys and would be honoured if you used our house in any of your promotions. We would also be delighted to talk to any potential buyers and actually shower them our place, of which we are really proud. I think that about says it. We certainly are more than pleased that we were able to work together on what turned out to be a great project.

Graham & Kerry S

Our journey to design and build our dream retirement home with Suncity Homes at Noosa Springs is now complete and we have moved in. We acknowledge a very good design and specification process guided by Thene, Sales Manager, and Suncity’s deisgn consultants who perfected our initial design draft in accordance with the detailed covenants. The build resulted in a solid well built structure followed with Ben, Building Manager, showcasing his skills and fine tuning all the finishing touches required to achieve our exacting standards and provide a beautiful home to love.

Greville P

Building a new home seems to always be a very exciting, emotional, frustrating, rollercoaster ride but our experience with Sun City Homes took all this and more to another level and rolled it into an enjoyable experience. Even though we were living over 3 hours away from the building site we were kept up to date daily with what was happening and any queries were answered or attended to immediately. Absolutely nothing was a problem. The building was completed within the time frame and now four months into living in our beautiful home we have had the time to notice their attention to detail and fine workmanship. Sun City have a team of professionals who are just that – PROFESSIONAL!

We are thrilled with our beautiful new Suncity home! It has exceeded our expectations. It has been a pleasure dealing with the Suncity team every step of the way. We would like to thank everyone who helped build our home to such a high standard and within the agreed timeframe. It has everything we wanted and feel it represents exceptional value. This was our first experience with building a house. The Suncity team was incredibly patient and provided excellent advice along the way.

Our project manager Ben treated the house with great care – like it was his own. Suncity consistently went the extra mile for us – nothing was too much trouble. Their contacts for all aspects of the house and garden were excellent and we would highly recommend them to anyone looking to build a home on the Sunshine Coast.

Daniel D

I have just moved into my first Suncity Home. It was built in four months by Suncity’s own custom design team. Very simple, modern, everything has the touch of class. The finishes are just amazing. They have achieved a warm and inviting home with warm and instant aftersales service.

Anna M

Hi Diane, I think it’s time I updated my testimonial! Building homes for the Surf Life Saving Lottery is a little different to building a home for a couple or a family. We have to satisfy the many and varied features that most Queenslanders want in their dream home. This is a huge task but Suncity have been successfully doing this for us for over 20 years! Not only that, but Suncity continues to help drive Lottery ticket sales with constantly changing designs, excellent build quality and adherence to timetables. Diane and her team are brilliant to work with. There’s always one of their homes open for lottery ticket sales somewhere in S. E. Queensland. So drop by and take a look.

Steve W

We never imagined that building a house could be fun. But thanks to the Suncity team it has been most enjoyable. And they have built to an excellent standard. Minor issues were sorted without demur. We highly recommend!

Annette R

Hi Diane, All is going well at the house. I am very pleased with it, to say the least. I’ve built before, but the workmanship and quality of this place has exceeded my previous experience.

Melanie O

Thank you …very much! To Ben & everyone at Suncity We just wanted to say thank you for helping us build our dream home. We are really happy and just wanted to say thank you for all the help & support we got over the last 12 months. We are so happy how everything turned out & if we do ever build again we would definitely use you guys again.

Phil J

It was the quality of design, construction and finish that was important to us and Suncity Homes certainly delivered with our new home. We would like to take this opportunity to thank you and your fine team of builders and trades-persons who helped to make this home an outstanding success. Special mention is made of your Site Supervisor for his constant communication, attention to detail, getting the job completed in the stated time frame and ongoing support following completion. Our house continues to draw a ‘WOW’ from whoever walks through our front door. We have no hesitation in recommending SUNCITY HOMES to anyone considering building a new home.

Ross L

Without hesitation, I am honored to ‘highly’ recommend Sun City Homes. Every step of the way has been nothing short of professionalism, clarity on desired outcome. Nearly to the point of, maybe missing this whole process of team spirit, working together on achieving such a quality product.  I have no hesitation on recommending this team, from administration to hands on supervisory role. I thank you for this wonderful experience.

Debi J

It didn’t take us long before we realised the benefits of choosing Suncity Homes to build our new home. We started with a piece of land and a dream, and now have a fantastic home that we are so proud of. Job well done Suncity Homes.

Neil W

This is our second custom build and after seeing a few builders, we chose Suncity from recommendations and initial informative sales meetings.

Their customer and block specific approach appealed to us and the quality of the home is testament to the attention to detail throughout the build.

House building is a big commitment with potential pitfalls along the way, however any obstacles we came across were efficiently and mutually resolved.

We love our modern new home, totally worth the effort and we would certainly be giving Suncity a call for our next one! Thanks to everyone involved.

Tracy L

Suncity Homes built our beachfront home in Scarborough near Redcliffe and the whole experience was very easy. They were extremely accommodating about helping us modify house plans, even do things like cutting through the existing slab to move the stairwell. The building manager Ben was fantastic and nothing ever seemed to be a problem.

Terry M

After more than 12 months trying to find the right builder who was able to construct our part commercial and part residential Waterfront property on the Redcliffe Peninsula, we found Suncity Homes.

They saw this as a challenge and were prepared to take on the job. The old property was jammed between 2 properties and therefore the excitement was even greater to bring it to a success.

From day one Suncity Homes proved to be the builder that we were looking for. We have found each member of Suncity Homes to be courteous, enthusiastic, will think outside the box and pleasant to talk to.

They will assist you in anyway they can and that is the reason that we recommend with no hesitation Suncity Homes to anyone who is looking to have their dream home built.

Patrick H

As a property developer, there are multiple facets that make up any project, each with their own challenges & potential headaches. The relationship forged over nearly a decade with Suncity Homes, as our preferred construction company for our bespoke custom homes, has meant that we have complete comfort that the construction aspect is in good hands. Our relationship has only strengthened over this time. Our reputation is of critical importance to us and Suncity Homes has never let us down, always delivering a consistent high-quality product on time & on budget. The professionalism and attention to detail of Suncity Homes has ensured that our houses are highly saleable & well received by our end users. Without hesitation, we would highly recommend Suncity Homes to anyone looking for a quality build & experience with their own custom home.

B Amble Development Manager, Seymour Group

As a building inspector, I inspect many properties and appreciate quality workmanship. I have done many handover inspections and have seen some shockers. I have done 3 handover defects inspections of homes built by Suncity Homes and I would rate them as one of the best. High quality workmanship, attention to detail and pride of end result are obvious in the Suncity homes I have inspected. They make my job easy.

Wayne Steer Licensed Builder, Building & Timber Pest Inspector

Having built several times previously, we had a fairly good idea as to what we wanted. Armed with a set of plans from an architect who did an incredible job of putting all our wishes together, we only wanted to work with a builder who was prepared to invest the time & effort into making sure every last detail was considered & accounted for at the quoting stage, & who shared our same focus on quality – we had previously been burnt by cheap quotes & the variation game. Naturally the experience Suncity has with builds of similar detail & budget provided us with additional confidence, but it was the willingness to offer options that both added to the home & helped us to address budget concerns that had us happy with our decision before we even began construction.

All the Suncity trades treated our home with respect, & Ben could not have been more accommodating with any changes and communication. It is the little details that make the difference, and with the care given, you would have thought it was their home own home being built. The incredible comments we get from every visitor are nice, but it is the enjoyment we had throughout the build & now that we are living there, that has us pinching ourselves daily.

Thank you so much to everyone in the Suncity team & we look forward to singing your praises at every opportunity.

PW

As a developer, it is vital our builder of choice supports us by providing consistent communication, does what they say they will, and provides a quality product that is well received by the market.

Fresh off the back of enduring an experience with another builder we hope to never have to go through again, it has been a breath of fresh air to engage a building company who has our back & that we can trust not to let us down. Being kept up to date, meeting timeframes & attending to any of our concerns are key factors in our decision to continue our relationship with Suncity Homes, which is now on to our 4^th home.

Ben, the construction manager, is always attentive to our needs, providing excellent communication & support throughout our builds. He is well assisted by a loyal team of trades, and a supportive office that enables him to spend more time on site & provides us with a point of contact at all times.

We highly recommend Suncity Homes to anyone looking for an experienced builder that will provide personal service.
