hidden surprises during the build and the design team was great to work with. Warren the project supervisor was fantastic to work with nothing was an issue consistently keeping me updated on the project as i was out of town a lot during the build. His attention to detail was excellent highlighting possible issues and a plan to resolve them. Warren's supervision of the trades seen the house completed well ahead of schedule and the trades were excellent great finish throughout the house with very few defects.

smooth and reassuring thanks to Mitchell Warne and Linda, who supported us every step of the way.
From the very beginning, Mitch was patient, transparent, and incredibly knowledgeable. He took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for, explained options clearly, and never made us feel rushed into decisions. His guidance during the planning and selection stages helped us feel confident that we were making the right choices for our home and budget.
Linda was equally fantastic throughout the process. She was always approachable and quick to address any questions or concerns we had, which made a huge difference during what can otherwise be a stressful experience.
What really stood out was how both Mitch and Linda worked together seamlessly. Their communication was consistent, and we always felt informed and supported at every stage, from initial discussions through to final decisions.
Thanks to their professionalism and genuine care, the entire journey felt far more manageable and enjoyable than we expected. We truly appreciate their dedication and would highly recommend McDonald Jones Homes, especially Mitch and Linda, to anyone looking to build their dream home.

the patient guidance and reassurance of my Contract Presenter, this feeling quickly disappeared. Contract information was explained in terms I could understand and was extremely thorough.

while my house failed inspections and failed quality inspections. Major issues and very poorly treated. Until the day finally came when I met Jim. He was absolutely incredible to work with with and fixed everything we had an issue with in a very timely manner. He was so professional and understanding of how we felt. He treated my house as his own. If you ever have to deal with maintenance and warranty make sure you request Jim. He definitely restored my faith in the company.

helped us navigate through a number of external challenges. He kept us up to date and was accommodating whenever we reached out to him. The build process is challenging, and can be frustrating when things don't go to plan and there are delays beyond anyone's control. Scott's follow up with outstanding items has been good also :)

James was great, we thought thats to be expected in sales and half expected / worried that quality and serive would deminish after the contract signing. To our pleasant suprise quality and service continued through every stage of our build right through to completion. Ryle Stoddart our Presite Coordinator Carnta Sanz our Building Coordinator Dean Gorsuch our On Site Manager were all fantastic.

initially felt very daunting, but Hallmark has made it an incredibly positive experience from start to finish. We’re now just a month away from handover and couldn’t be more excited.
Dylan from the sales team was fantastic. He took the time to clearly explain everything we needed to know, offered helpful tips, and guided us in making the right choices without ever making us feel overwhelmed. His support early on really set the tone for the rest of our journey.
Our site supervisor, Ian, has also been wonderful to work with. We received consistent weekly updates, and he has always been thorough, approachable, and easy to communicate with. It’s clear he genuinely cares about delivering a quality home.
We’ve also been impressed by the workmanship of the trades. On the few occasions we met them, they spoke very highly of Hallmark and shared how much they enjoy working with the company. That pride definitely shows in their attention to detail and the overall finish of our home.
We would highly recommend Hallmark to anyone looking to build. It has truly been an absolute pleasure dealing with the team, and we cannot wait to move into our new home.

No1 Property Guide
This time last year, we were sitting together having a conversation about how unrealistic it felt to even think about buying a home. Financially, we… Read more
simply were not in a position where home ownership seemed possible.
Fast forward just six months, and our situation has done a complete 180. We are now eagerly waiting for construction to commence on our brand-new home, and it honestly still feels surreal to say that!
From the very beginning of this journey, the team at No.1 Property Guide has been nothing short of incredible. Their support, guidance, patience, and genuine care have made all the difference. They believed in us when we weren’t even sure ourselves, and they worked tirelessly behind the scenes to help turn what felt impossible into reality.
A massive shoutout to Darren, Talor, Michael, Alarna, Lauren, Tammi, and everyone else we’ve had the pleasure of dealing with along the way. Every single person has gone above and beyond to support us, answer our questions, and keep us reassured throughout the entire process.
We can categorically say we would not be where we are today without No.1 Property Guide. They haven’t just helped us purchase a home, they’ve helped us bring our dream to life.
If you’re thinking about starting your property journey but feel unsure about your financial position, we highly encourage you to reach out to No1 Property Guide. We truly can’t recommend them enough.
Thank you so much for everything — we are beyond grateful!

first point of contact and helped us begin this journey, as well as Georgia, Stuart, and Tracy. Communication was consistently prompt and professional.
Overall, we are very pleased with the result. The finished terrace is beautiful, and we already feel at home.
It is worth noting that the construction process took the full duration outlined in the contract (building time : 1 year). We have only been living in the property for one week and remain within the 12-month warranty period, so we will continue engaging with Ausmar as needed. That said, we expect everything will continue to run smoothly.

The standard of tradespeople and workmanship was superb and anything that needed adjusting in our contract was dealt with promptly and professionally. We had friends building with a project company at the same time as us and they now have problems and unfinished items. We highly recommend PJ Burns Builders to build your dream home.

Thanks to Matt for initial consult and Rick and the two Dave's and all their tradespeople for a job well done. ***** Pam and Bill
McCarthy Homes
(Positive update) Don’t be lured into a building contract by their “everything is possible” front office salesman – We thought we can build our dream house with windows to embrace the pool and water view at the rear of our house. At their display homes at… Read more
Helensvale with gigantic ceiling height windows, we worked with their salesperson over several weeks to finalise the largest windows after several design drafts from head office. We have stated to the salesperson that not having these windows are deal breakers for us (even though they are only 1.2m height which are comparatively small compared to the 2.4m height windows at their display home). We were assured by the salesperson that once they are finalised in the contract, they should not change and if additional cost are required to build the house, the company will have to cover the additional cost because it should have been considered at the precontract phase.
Everything changed after signing the contract. Communication was painfully slow at the head office with gross lack of attention to details, including several variations that were discussed at the point of signing of the contract not being updated in the final working drawings 3 months thereafter.
The most infuriating issue is the very size of the 4 windows and 1 sliding doors were reduced by at least 20% of the size, with a sliding door losing almost a metre in length. They snakily made the changes in the drawings, without informing us or offer a credit for the reduced size (they did- only very eventually offering this when we showed our disapproval). We were utterly upset when we noticed the changes. When we queried about it, we were only given the reason as being “bracing issues”, “ building code” and “engineering requirements”, to brush us off, and if not, you will compromise on the structure of the house. That’s rude and they almost didn’t have the intention to credit us for these changes stating that extra material would be required to fill in the space where our big window should be in?? Yet they could happily charge us for these sized windows at contract?! Also if it is bracing issues, why are the window sizes not increased instead so that the windows brace more steadily to the main pillars and beams? We sent them an unhappy email and they claimed to have a meeting with the GM. We thought there was hope. Alas, this meeting resulted in even more issues- they have now decided that my splashback window in the kitchen needs to be reduced further as well!!!
We were misled to committing to the building contract after being shown our dream home in the drawing, only for this company to take it away again. This house that they have drawn for us is no longer our house we had in mind. It is their house. Now, we need to seek QBCC assistance.
We have lost confidence in this builder before we even started the council approval application.
Definitely not a dream home builder.
UPDATE: Even though we were unable to get the windows and doors to the original size stipulated in our contract, we were given time to discuss our grievances with N, the GM, and they have since then won us over with minimal delays in our build plus value added bonuses to our build, mostly at their cost. We have had the pleasure of having A as our site supervisor, with weekly updates to our build, and have not had a problem since. Definitely 5* for customer relations and management post issues.
