I had an excellent experience working with B1 when building my place in Yanchep. From my first meeting with Michael, he was professional, responsive, and genuinely interested in understanding what I was looking for. The process was explained very clearly, answered all my questions promptly, and made the whole process feel straightforward instead of stressful. Show details

Every stage has been clearly explained, which made the journey much easier for us as first-time builders. Communication has been great, and… Read more · 1
whenever we had questions the team responded quickly and guided us through the next steps. We especially appreciated the assistance during the pre-construction stage, where everything was organised efficiently and stress was kept to a minimum. So far we are very happy with our decision to build with B1 Homes and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable builder in Western Australia. We are excited to see our home continue to progress.

Building our first home with B1 Homes has been an absolutely incredible experience from start to finish. As first home buyers, the process felt exciting, smooth, and surprisingly fun — something we never expected when taking on such a big milestone! A huge standout for us was our amazing sales representative, Jai. He was incredibly professional,… Read more · 1
friendly, and knowledgeable, guiding us through every step with patience and honesty. Jai took the time to explain everything clearly, answered all our (many!) questions, and made sure we always felt confident and informed. His support truly turned a daunting process into a journey we could enjoy.
We couldn’t be happier with our new home or the service we received. If you're looking for a builder who keeps things professional, enjoyable, and stress-free — especially if you're a first home buyer — we can’t recommend B1 Homes and Jai enough.
B1 has gone above and beyond with the design of our home. I felt they have listened and got the best deal for us. I truly recommend B1 and the team. Show details · 1

As a first-home buyer, I ultimately decided not to proceed with B1 Homes after progressing through the preliminary works and PCQ stages. My concerns stemmed from what I considered to be significant inconsistencies between early discussions, written… Read more
assurances, PCQ documentation and the final contractual position presented. Matters relating to build time expectations, price hold understanding, fixed site costs and later variations became increasingly difficult to reconcile as the process progressed.
I ultimately lost confidence in proceeding with what would have been a major financial commitment. My request for consideration of a partial refund of the $3,000 preliminary works fee was also declined, despite my concerns being supported by email correspondence and documentation exchanged throughout the process.
My advice to future buyers is to avoid building with B1 homes as the initial verbal and written attractive assurances very quickly fade out when you get the inked document and that's when reality settles in! In my opinion, there are other builders worth considering before committing to B1 Homes.

much to ask. B1 were able to achieve everything we wanted in our floorplan while still keeping us within budget.
The slab was poured as soon as our land titles came through, and Charlotte made our Pre-Start meeting so easy and stress-free. The entire team at B1 Homes has been dedicated, supportive, and genuinely invested in bringing our vision to life. We’re also excited to now be working with our client liaison, Kaidee, as the build continues.
We know choosing B1 Homes to build our first home was the best decision we could have made, and the house isn't even built yet. Thank you to the whole team!

Hi Zeru,
Thank you for your email.
As outlined in Clause 3.1 of the Preliminary Works Agreement, the Preliminary Works Deposit is non refundable.
Your decision to cancel the Preliminary Works Agreement is based on a change in your building requirements and your intention to proceed with a double storey home through another builder. As such, no refund is payable from the $5,000 deposit.
As previously confirmed, your Preliminary Works Agreement has been cancelled and no further work will be undertaken on the project.
We wish you all the best with your future build plans.

always prioritized. We also appreciated their transparency, as they communicated openly and kept us well-informed every step of the way.
A special shout out to our land specialist, Maricelle Bautista, whose support made a huge difference for us. She showed exceptional patience and understanding, especially when we decided to change the location of our future home. Maricelle took the time to thoroughly explain each step of the home-building process. Her knowledge and expertise in the industry were evident, and she always made sure we fully understood our options. She answered all of our questions promptly and kept us informed throughout, which gave us peace of mind during such an important milestone.
Overall, we are incredibly grateful for the support and guidance we received. Thanks to Maricelle and the B1 Homes team, we are now one step closer to living in the home we’ve always envisioned.

Courtney was extremely helpful during my pre-start meeting. The process seemed very relaxed, with Courtney explaining everything very thoroughly. So far, my experience with B1 Homes has been relatively straightforward, and everyone is very professional, friendly and welcoming of any queries or concerns. I look forward to the next stage of the building process, hopefully soon! Show details · 1

We were excited to be building for the first time with B1 Homes after owning homes previously thought this was a good opportunity to downsize and we knew we exactly what we wanted with the build. Unfortunately our sales rep who was really good left not long after we signed up and we were left with a disappointing experience. Customer service and… Read more
communication was lacking, we were made to feel like we couldn’t ask any questions and they didnt respond to independent inspectors reports unless we continuously chased them up. The positive was that it was a quick build.
Bad experience – This is my experience with B1 Construction. Let me start by saying that [Name Removed] promised us a 6 month price hold, 9 month build guarantee, but it took a year and a half to finish due to many delays. He was unable to design the house, which led to multiple redesigns. Fortunately, I was able to read the drawings. Once we put down our deposit,… Read more
the price started to increase, and it continued to increase during construction. We eventually stopped communicating with him, but his replacement was no better. I'm aware that building issues can arise, but [Name Removed] assured us that there were no problems and that they could build on time. However, their favorite line was always "6-8 weeks" whenever we asked for an update. This led to a lot of delays. B1 Construction had many issues, including a lack of transparency, poor communication, and unprofessional staff. If you're thinking of building with them, I recommend that you learn to read engineering drawings, get a lawyer, or find another builder. I hope this review helps B1 homes to improve, rather than just focusing on making money.

Waste of time! – Very Unprofessional and somewhat deceitful. B1 Homes was a waste of time. Not only would they not design a home to my needs but they requested a copy of my bank statement showing my savings after I submitted my bank-issued pre-approval letter. Is that even legal? I asked this question from my broker and lawyer to which both confirmed that this is… Read more
neither legal nor required by any builder. Do your job of the builder not my banker please. They refused to refund my deposit after I told them that I would not be using their services. They were quick to demand my deposit after telling me that it was required for a "price-lock" in November. Other builders that I have now spoken to advise that December 15, 2023 is the last "price-lock" date. There are many other reputable builders in WA, thanks for nothing B1 Homes. You should not take advantage of people, you are not the only builder out there.
Thank you for bringing your concerns to our attention. … Read more

My experience with B1 Homes has been an easy, stress free experience from start to finish so far. Given my age and this being my first home, Amanda and Courtney have been amazing.

trouble-put up with our many changes of mind during planning stage :) We have been updated all through the build and happy with workmanship-our Site manager is very professional and informative-happy to answer any queries-give us time slots for advancing build. The only thing for us was not actually interpreting the actual product description on paper and during talks when making choices for internals-drawer fittings and sliding door into another room. Highly recommend this company-every one has been amazing-cant wait to move in-which won't be long!
