Perry homes has been a great choice for us to build our first home. From the very beginning Michaela was very helpful with assisting us with any question we had.No request was any hassle to her and her guidance helped us pick the perfect floor plan for our first home.

was excellent.
Our supervisor Brandon was outstanding. Constantly keeping us updated with text and photos while we were overseas while the build commenced. Any questions we asked were replied to very quickly and were answered with great detail.
The build process was very smooth. Everything was well organised and completed well before completion date. Which we were very grateful for.
We recommend Brandon very highly to anyone looking at building their home. You are in very safe hands if he is your supervisor.
We had a wonderful experience with Perry Homes, and a big part of that was because of our New Home Consultant, Tracy, and our Site Supervisor, Lindsay. From the very beginning, Tracy was fantastic to work with. She was helpful, approachable, patient and genuinely supportive throughout the initial stages of our new home journey. She took the time… Read more · 1
to listen to what we wanted, patiently answered our many questions, and guided us through the many decisions involved in building a new home.
There are so many details and choices to make when building a home, and Tracy made the process much easier for us. She was always friendly, professional and willing to help whenever we needed clarification or assistance. We really appreciated her patience, understanding and willingness to make sure we were comfortable with each step of the process.
As we moved into the construction stage, we started working closely with Lindsay, and he was equally fantastic throughout the building process. Lindsay was always helpful, accommodating, patient and genuinely kind. I’m not from a construction or technical background, so I often found myself explaining questions and concerns without knowing the correct technical terms. Lindsay always took the time to understand what I was trying to explain and made sure my questions were properly addressed.
His patience, communication and willingness to listen made a huge difference to our experience. He was approachable, professional and always willing to help, explain things clearly and find a solution when we had questions or concerns. I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better Site Supervisor.
Both Tracy and Lindsay brought different strengths to different stages of our building journey, but they shared the same qualities that made such a difference to us, patience, professionalism, kindness and a genuine willingness to help.
We are very grateful to both Tracy and Lindsay for their support and guidance throughout the entire process. They both played an equally important part in making our experience with Perry Homes such a positive one. We are very happy with our new home and truly appreciate everything they did to help us along the way.
We would have no hesitation in recommending Perry Homes, Tracy and Lindsay to anyone considering building a new home. Thank you both for making our building journey such a positive and memorable experience!

I had a fantastic experience building my home with Perry Homes, especially with Stephen Wagstaff as my Project Manager. Stephen was professional, approachable, and always kept me updated throughout the entire build. What stood out most was how humble, kind, and genuine he was. Whenever an issue came up, he would always go above and beyond to find… Read more · 1
a solution and make sure everything worked out.
Building a home can be stressful, but Stephen made the whole experience so much smoother and gave me confidence throughout the process. He genuinely cares about his work and the people he works with. Stephen deserves all the flowers and recognition for the incredible work he does. He is by far the best Project Manager I’ve ever worked with. I’m extremely happy with my new home and truly grateful for everything he has done. I couldn’t recommend Stephen and Perry Homes highly enough.

We have had a great experience building with Perry Homes over the past six months. Our site supervisor, James, was extremely professional, organised and attentive to detail throughout the entire build. Communication was always clear, and he took pride in ensuring everything was completed to a high standard. There were only a couple of minor issues… Read more · 1
during the build, both of which were addressed and rectified within a matter of weeks. We also found the trades to be respectful of our home and to generally take great care while working on site. Overall, we are very happy with the build and the experience we had with Perry Homes. James was a major part of making the process run smoothly, and we would happily build with Perry Homes again, particularly if James was our site supervisor.
Fantastic, communicative and efficient work. Answered any questions quickly, always very helpful and informative, and made it easy to set up site visits when necessary. Loved our weekly updates. Thanks very much for building our dream, forever home. Show details · 1
Tracey was absolutely amazing from the very beginning.

home an exciting and stress-free experience. We’re so grateful for all of her help and highly recommend her to anyone considering building with Perry Homes.
We had a fantastic experience building our new home with Brandon from Perry Homes. Brandon was professional, knowledgeable, and always happy to answer our questions throughout the entire process, even as often as they were asked. His communication was excellent, and he made what could have been a stressful experience feel easy and enjoyable. We couldn’t be happier with our beautiful new home and highly recommend Brandon and the Perry Homes team to anyone looking to build.

Our build with Perry homes was an effortless experience. The completion date was well ahead of schedule with very little downtime.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ PERRY HOMES - FORSTER - I couldn’t be happier with my experience building with Perry Homes Forster. I was initially recommended to Perry Homes by one of their contractors, who spoke very highly of the site supervisor, Stephen Wagstaff—and he absolutely lived up to that recommendation. He is incredibly organised, detail-oriented, and… Read more · 1
always on top of everything happening on site.
As a single mum of two building for the first time on my own, I honestly expected the process to feel overwhelming. Instead, Stephen made it smooth and manageable from start to finish. His communication was outstanding—keeping me updated multiple times a week and always responding quickly to calls and messages.
He went above and beyond by coordinating access for window furnishing and fencing quotes, organising times for suppliers to meet onsite, which took a huge amount of stress off me. He also took the time to answer all my questions and explain things clearly so I could make confident, informed decisions.
What truly stood out was his dedication right at the end of the build. The day before handover, he was due to go on annual leave and leave for a holiday at 2am—but he delayed his plans to ensure my home was handed over on time, knowing I had turf, underlay, and help booked in for the Easter long weekend. That level of care and commitment meant so much to me.
I am beyond grateful for the support, professionalism, and genuine kindness shown throughout the entire process. Stephen is an incredible asset to Perry Homes, and I highly recommend building with the Forster team.
Thank you for making this such a positive experience!

Huge thank you to Perry Homes Armidale and specifically Lindsay Frizell for making our building journey such a pleasure! We just got the keys and couldn't be happier.

attention to detail. Also, a massive thank you to Tracey Lavelle for her incredible work during the initial sales process.

We can’t fault any part of our build. From the first meeting with Ben in sales at the Lochinvar office. He listened to what we needed and worked with us to draw the plans that suit our family.

that had been built under our eaves. He is an asset to the company as he always appeared calm and had every stage sorted.
Building a home was one of the best things I've ever done. I had heard horror stories, of the stress, of the things that would go wrong. I went in to this process thinking that's exactly what my experience would be. Then I met Ben at Perry Homes, who found me the perfect house. (conveniently his own house plans). Where I thought that was all my… Read more · 1
good luck gone, my some stroke of luck, Anthony became my site manager.
I have never felt so secure, informed, important, but most importantly - happy, and stress free through this entire build. Anthony called us once a week, replied to text messages and emails in a prompt time, and even gave me extra pictures when I wanted a cheeky sneak peak when my kitchen and bathroom tiles were installed. He even went as far as to open our house for us, so my family who was travelling from the UK could see it before they went back home. It made me so proud to have such an amazing person working with us, because I knew he didn't have to travel to do this for us, there wasn't anything on site he needed to do, or oversee, he did it just for that extra special customer service touch.
Anthony also came up with solutions to any problems that arose - I didn't review our tile order correctly, and he helped me find our special order tile, in the same batch, just to make sure I had the look I wanted. If we weren't able to secure those tiles, he went through each scenario to make sure I got the bathroom of my dreams. Never once did he make me feel like I was a pain, or nuisance in that process, or even when I asked a million questions, or the same question a million times, or when I changed my mind.
The finishes on our choices were amazing, the small issues that I didn't even notice Anthony picked up on, made sure we were informed of it, and that it was rectified prior to proceeding, with a promptness I very much appreciated, and while I know with every build and renovation there are going to be things that happen, it was awesome to know that I didn't have to stress over this, or stress over the nitty gritty things because Anthony had already done it.
I did not have any unexpected costs pop up throughout the build, there was no metaphorical monster rearing its ugly head, that too often is all people talk about with their experiences building. We went in knowing the earth we were working with would need to be special engineered, and all costs were only extra when we chose to upgrade to certain tiles. Otherwise the selection offered covered everything we wanted in our build. (Standard tiles throughout the home were covered in the overall build cost, I wanted a special bathroom tile for ensuite & main bathroom. Overall extra cost was approx $9,000.)
If I have to say one thing about Perry Homes, it would be how awesome they are to work with. I've loved this entire process, and I honestly would not hesitate to do it all over again... On one stipulation that Anthony is our site manager again. While I have no doubt every supervisor is great there, the rapport and relationship we have with Anthony from our experience, I would love to work with him again. (If your manager is reading this Anthony, you seriously deserve a raise!)
Perry Homes is by far the best company and people to go with.
They make your house a home before the walls are even up.
Thank you Anthony, for absolutely everything. I honestly could not ask for a better person to work with. :)

everything was completed to a very high standard without compromising on quality. A special thank you and appreciation goes to our Site Supervisor, Brandon. He was absolutely fantastic to work with—extremely cooperative, approachable, and accommodating throughout the entire build. He always made an effort to understand what we wanted and was very flexible in helping us achieve the home we had envisioned. Whenever we had questions or concerns, Brandon was always available to answer them and provide clear guidance. Even after we received our home, Brandon continued to be incredibly helpful. Whenever we had any requests or needed assistance, he was always willing to help and make sure everything was taken care of. His dedication, professionalism, and attention to detail made a huge difference in our building experience. We were also very impressed with the communication from Perry Homes. Whenever we had a question or query, the team responded promptly and kept us informed throughout the process. Another major highlight was the build time. Our home was completed significantly earlier than we expected, while still maintaining excellent workmanship and quality. This was something we truly appreciated. Overall, we are extremely happy with our new home and our experience with Perry Homes. We would highly recommend Perry Homes to anyone looking to build their dream home, especially because of their quality, communication, professionalism, and commitment to their customers. A very special thank you to Brandon Calder (site supervisor)and michaela Burt( new home sales consultant) for doing such an outstanding job and for making our first home-building experience such a positive and memorable one.

We are equally grateful to Brandon Calder, our Building Supervisor.

Our home was completed within the expected timeframe , and the quality of the construction and finishes has been outstanding. There were no hidden surprises, and the final cost aligned well with what we expected.
As first-home owners, this journey meant everything to us. Perry Homes didn’t just build a house—they helped bring our dream home to life. We are incredibly thankful to the entire team for their professionalism, honesty, attention to detail, and outstanding customer service.
We highly recommend Perry Homes to anyone looking for a quality builder that genuinely cares about its customers. Thank you for turning our dream into reality!

away. We truly appreciate his effort, suggestions, patience, and kindness, and the fact that he is always available whenever we need to check on the house.
Tony, the Home Consultant, is also very knowledgeable and provides practical, reasonable advice regarding upgrades. He understood our goal of staying within budget and did his best to help us achieve a beautiful design without compromising that.
From the beginning, the build cost was transparent. The price remained largely unchanged, except for rock excavation and removal of the site-scraped material, which was outlined in the contract as potentially variable.
We are currently on day four in the house, and so far we have only noticed minor, mostly cosmetic issues. Overall, the build experience has been stress-free. We may update this review after the 90-day maintenance period, depending on how any rectifications are handled. At this stage, we are very happy with the build and the experience.

Our Construction Manager, Brandon, was absolutely brilliant. His communication was excellent, he kept us informed every step of the way, and his attention to detail was second to none. Brandon’s professionalism, knowledge, and commitment to delivering a high-quality home made the whole experience smooth and stress-free. It was clear that he genuinely cared about achieving the best possible outcome for us. A special thank you to Brandon for promising delivery of our home in 26 weeks, giving us our keys in 15 weeks and 3 days. What a legend!
We also can’t speak highly enough of our Sales Consultant, Michaela. From our very first meeting, she was incredibly helpful & knowledgeable. Michaela took the time to answer all our questions, & nothing was ever too much trouble.
We are absolutely thrilled with our beautiful new home and are so grateful to the entire Perry Homes team. Build quality is exceptional, and the work was completed by highly qualified tradesmen. We came in right on budget and have been provided a 13 week window for any issues post completion. Not that we expect any!

project manager who sets the standard for the entire industry. He was always approachable, honest, organised, and completely committed to quality. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and he consistently went above and beyond to ensure every aspect of our home was completed to the highest possible standard. The quality of the trades working under his leadership reflected the pride and expectations he brings to his role.
Unfortunately, our experience with some key staff within Perry Homes was at times unprofessional and created unnecessary stress and drama throughout parts of the build process. This caused significant stress and anxiety for our family during what should have been an exciting time.
Perry Homes should be extremely grateful to have someone like [Name Removed] representing their company. People like him are rare. He brings professionalism, integrity, leadership, and genuine care to every part of the build process, and he was without doubt the reason we decided to continue building with Perry Homes.
