Just moved into our new home with La Vida and couldn’t be happier with the result. The whole build was smooth, stress-free and ran efficiently from start to finish.

We have just moved into our new home with La Vida Homes and we are absolutely obsessed! From start to finish, the entire build process was stress-free, enjoyable and such a positive experience.

and they went above and beyond to accommodate us wherever possible. We always felt listened to, supported and valued throughout the entire journey.

A special mention to Bodie and Kaidee, who were an absolutely amazing team to work with. Their dedication, professionalism and willingness to help made the whole experience even better.

We couldn’t be happier with our beautiful new home and would wholeheartedly recommend La Vida Homes to anyone looking to build.

We will 100% be using La Vida for our next build, although we might need to enjoy this one for a little while first! ❤️

La Vida Homes and ‘Damo’ are the picture-perfect story of an enjoyable positive and worthwhile building experience in Perth. It truly has been a wonderful journey that I’ve shared with family, friends & colleagues who all have said the same thing, “you picked the right builder”. It started in 2024 with a land purchase, a small dream and nothing… Read more ·  1

known about building a house, titles or what a floorplan is supposed to look like! I first met Damo after consulting with other builders and was impressed and assured by his ‘what would you like’ approach to drafting a plan. Not the sales pitch of inclusions, or “what package we offer is best”, a people first approach the felt Genine and reflected in his patience and thoroughness getting the floorplan right for the build.

Next we moved onto waiting for titles and making selections for prestart. This was an important step in seeing how the designed house would look, feel and come together from the original inspirations to the finishing touches. All of the recommendations from the La Vida team of showrooms to visit as well as Home Base in Subiaco to physically see in person, obtain samples and request some free advice was invaluable.

Now that titles were issued and selections were made, the La Vida Portal came to life! This is a standout feature of this builder (later supported by the App) that everyone I showed was amazed by the inclusiveness of the builder to show you the journey. Pictures, updates, what’s coming next were all a click away as well as contacting the team with questions on all of this. We also got to participate in building the home by laying a brick (although I still haven’t found the exact unit even after moving in) and signing the slab, genuinely ‘making our mark’. This then moved onto roofing, waterproofing, walls, electrical and so on with regular updates coming through.

At every stage the builder was responsive to my 3rd party inspector, rectifying defects and workmanship items, sending through the remedied works showing a sense of pride in their craft. There wasn’t a debate or reflection that “you don’t know what you’re talking about” once from La Vida, it was the same care and dedication to making everything right that we enjoyed from day one.

Lastly the PCI and Key handover ceremony. The first time I walked through the house feeling that ‘home’ emotion reflecting on the tile choices, undertones of wall colour and visions of new furniture fit out and first meal. The key handover was booked early in the morning but felt like every other step of important and ours. This was a lovely touch by the team and hopefully inspired others that your home building journey matters, your preferences will be listened to and you will get a house that is built by a team that really cares about its clients beyond getting paid.

As I said to our site supervisor Jason, everyone has a bad mechanic or bad builder story, but it’s wonderful to share a great builder story that others can read, view and hopefully enquire about.

La Vida’s product is not the flashy ads with celebrities promoting ‘inclusions’ or 5 story Mcmansions covered in gold, it’s the personable caring and professionally delivered home that you and they will be proud of. I’d like to say a special thanks to all those involved including Damo the tradie, Laura (prestart consultant), Kaisha, Alicia and Shauna for making this a special journey worth remembering and sharing!

We are pleased to provide this letter of recommendation for La Vida Homes, with whom we have had the privilege of working with to build our new home. From the outset, La Vida Homes demonstrated exceptional professionalism, clear communication, and a strong commitment to delivering high-quality results. Their team consistently met deadlines,… Read more ·  1

adhered to budget requirements, and maintained the highest standards of workmanship.

We purchased a block in the Shorehaven development at Alkimos just 500 metres from the beach. La Vida Homes makes sure they give their full attention to detail at every stage and their approach ensured a smooth process from planning to completion.

Their ability to coordinate with all trades was seamless, and their dedication to safety and compliance was evident at every stage.

Beyond their technical expertise, the team’s integrity, reliability, and customer-focused attitude make them a pleasure to work with. We have full confidence in recommending La Vida Homes for any construction projects, knowing they will deliver outstanding results.

The cost of the build did not change, and there was no charge for having our own building inspector, Dudley Staples from duncraig@jimsbuildinginspections.com.au Dudley mentioned to me at the end of the build that the standard of the home was one of the best built homes he had seen, you have to love La Vida Homes for that.

Living in another state has its difficulties as you can imagine, but by having a portal that allowed us to communicate with our own consultant and site manager and following the progress of the build at every stage with detailed photos, allowed us to have a very enjoyable building experience.

A big shout out to our design consultant Vinzi Carcione (0411 095 509) give him a ring to start your journey.

A big shout out to our site manager Corey York - Many thanks for a beautiful home.

Our son is now starting his journey with La Vida Homes.

Thank you La Vida Homes.

Kind regards

The professionalism, transparency, and genuine care shown by the entire La Vida team have made this journey a positive one from the very beginning. We are incredibly grateful and can’t wait to see our first home come to life.

Thank you, Ben, Sophie, Robyn, and the entire La Vida Homes team. ✨

the Pre‑Start phase, and communicating seamlessly with Jade and Laurence—through to the final Key Handover. In comparison to my previous home construction with Summit Homes, I found that this build required significantly less oversight on my part, which reflects the exceptional standard of service and coordination provided by La Vida Homes team. I would particularly like to acknowledge Laurence, who has demonstrated outstanding performance in his role as Site Supervisor. His diligence, communication, and attention to detail have been exemplary, and I believe his efforts deserve formal recognition. I would not hesitate to recommend La Vida Homes to anyone considering building a new home. Once again, thank you very much for your professionalism, support, and commitment to ensuring this construction process was as smooth and efficient as possible.

 Follow-up  · The handover process went very smoothly, happened 2 weeks later than expected but the reason was justified due to the Christmas shut down. What really stood out was the clear communication. Prompt responses on queries, weekly/fortnightly updates on the portal about completed and upcoming tasks. Unexpected challenge - getting Dowell windows to fix some of the windows.

An amazing team of people who make this unpopular journey a pleasant experience through their communication, care, customer service, and support at each stage. We are so obsessed that we have started our second home build journey with them as well. Show details ·  1

 Follow-up  · Handover was smooth and even a minor paint mark detail was taken into account. The handover eventually happened a week or so in advance. Our first build and new house journey can all be followed on seingers_home_journey instagram page. No unexpected cost but certainly a complementary porcelain splashback (because overhead cupboard length was 2cm short from marked plans to meet regulatikns).

After the prestart meeting, whenever I had questions or wanted to make changes, Michelle was always very responsive and explained everything clearly and promptly. I really appreciated her patience, professionalism and communication throughout the process.

With Michelle’s help, I have now completed all of my prestart selections and final documents, and I feel very satisfied and reassured with how everything has been handled so far.

Thank you, Michelle, for all your help and support. I hope the next construction stage goes just as smoothly!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Dream Home Journey We’ll Always Remember Building our first home was a huge milestone for us, and choosing the right builder was one of the biggest decisions we had to make. Looking back, we honestly feel that choosing La Vida Homes WA was one of the best decisions we made. What impressed us most was how different La Vida was from the… Read more ·  1

very beginning. They didn’t just try to sell us a house — they took the time to understand what we wanted, what we needed and what we could afford, and worked with us to achieve the best possible outcome within our budget.

The customer portal was another fantastic part of the experience. It gave us peace of mind knowing exactly where our build was up to without needing to constantly visit the site. Being able to follow the progress and receive updates throughout the build made the whole process so much easier.

Another thing that really impressed us was the build timeframe. We were initially promised a 10-month build, but La Vida exceeded our expectations by reaching the key handover stage in less than 9 months! That was something we truly appreciated.

A massive THANK YOU to the entire La Vida Homes management and construction team for turning our plans into our beautiful first home. ❤️

And a very special thank you to Jay Mingi from Perth Home Brokers. Jay was our go-to person throughout the entire journey. Whenever we had questions, needed advice or simply wanted some reassurance, Jay was always there to support us. Having someone so helpful and reliable made a huge difference.

Our first home-building experience has been an incredibly memorable journey, and we are so happy to finally see our dream become a reality.

Thank you, La Vida Homes WA and Perth Home Brokers, for helping us turn a dream into a home. We couldn’t be happier! ❤️
