In-depth reviews
I am extremely satisfied with my experience during the pre-construction phase with Rawson Homes. My customer care consultant, Merry-Anne, was always accessible by phone or email and worked hard to solve any issues I had. She kept me informed, notified me when each plan was completed, and ensured each step proceeded without delays. Her experience… Read more
and patience made me trust her and kept the process stress-free.
A highlight was when the CDC (Complying Development Certificate) was approved the same day it was submitted. Also, after my land was registered, it took only about three months to reach the construction stage—an impressive timeline.
Thanks to Merry-Anne’s coordination, my site started construction well before the contract price expired. I’m excited to see the next stages of the build.
Overall, my experience with Rawson Homes has been very positive, and Merry-Anne’s service played a key role in making the pre-construction phase a success. I highly recommend Rawson Homes to others looking for a smooth and efficient build.
After sales service – Our Rawson Home has been completed for a couple of years now and we are still happy with our choice of builder As other reviews have suggested all builds have challenges with things such as delays or material shortages and that’s just life Recently our stone bench top developed a crack on a joint On inspection the underside of the joint was not… Read more · 1
supported as per manufacturer specifications and although the fault was arguably outside the warranty period we contacted Rawson warranty for rectification Their warranty manager Gordon was responsive and negotiated with the stone company to fix the issue including installation of proper support under the joint Without Gordon’s ethos “what if this was my house “ I believe it may have been put in the too hard basket Additionally the stone tradesmen were polite and professional in their handling of the issue You hear plenty of criticism about after sales service Our experience with Rawson and in particular Gordon has been very positive Max Avalon
Exceptional Warranty Manager and Reliable Construction Company – I recently had the privilege of working with Fred, the warranty manager at Rawson Homes, and I am delighted to share my outstanding experience with both him and the construction company. In these challenging times marked by inflation and collapsing builders, I found Fred's prompt actions and Rawson Homes commitment to excellence truly commendable.… Read more · 1
From the moment we moved into our new home, Fred demonstrated unwavering dedication to ensuring our complete satisfaction. His attention to detail and proactive approach in addressing even the smallest defects were truly remarkable. It was evident that he took immense pride in his work and genuinely cared about the happiness of Rawson Homes customers.
In an industry where many warranty managers might prioritize bigger issues or overlook minor defects, Fred went above and beyond to promptly address every concern we raised. He exhibited a deep sense of professionalism, always keeping us informed about the progress of the repairs and ensuring that everything was resolved to our satisfaction.
Rawson Homes as a construction company also deserves special recognition for their commitment to delivering high-quality homes. Despite the challenging circumstances in the industry, they upheld their reputation as a reliable builder. The attention to detail and craftsmanship evident in the construction of our home exceeded our expectations. It is clear that Rawson Homes places great emphasis on ensuring durability and longevity.
In conclusion, my experience with Fred, the warranty manager at Rawson Homes, and the construction company itself has been nothing short of exceptional. Their promptness, attention to detail, and commitment to customer satisfaction in a challenging industry are truly commendable. I highly recommend Fred and Rawson Homes to anyone seeking a reliable builder and a warranty manager who goes above and beyond. Rest assured, with Fred and Rawson Homes, your home is in safe hands.

Negative reviews
Warranty service at Rawson Homes – Poor disappointing service and lack of ownership from the warranty team pushing out as much as possible. Warranty team has not been returning calls or emails and trying best to avoid. Show details
Highly NOT recommended if you have a budget and especially FHO – Like most users who come here for a recount of first hand experiences, I thought I'd share mine - given that I initially leaned towards Rawson Homes due to the positive reviews. I don't aim to discredit the other positive reviews here, but just to share my personal negative experience dealing with them. [Note that my negative experience is… Read more
limited to the first stage of builder-client process; the final tender was not signed due to lack of trust with Rawson Homes. I cannot comment on the building stage of the process.]
My partner and I met with a Rawson Home's sales representative 16th June, 2019 to go through initial designs and scope out what they can offer. Our needs were communicated across, highlighting a budget of $280k for a build. After going through a full build on the computer, it was relayed to us that a build within the budget is achievable. We were told that a build of $300k would be the maximum - this is INCLUDING overestimations on a lot of items. This gave us hope as a few thousand over/below the $300k would still be manageable.
Fast forward to two weeks later on 30th June, 2019 another meeting was held (during which other builders had been visited and draft quotes obtained). The contour plan of the map was provided to the sales representative. After the final details and inclusions were discussed, the total build of the house came to $303k. Provided this was still including the overestimations, it was acceptable despite exceeding initial budget of $280k. We double checked with the sales representative that our budget was priority (being FHO) and we were told that it would be fine. The "non-refundable" $950 on the tender was submitted paid based on this information and trust with the sales representative - which was our regrettable mistake.
On 09th August, 2019 we are presented with the tender by the tender presenter at their office in Homebush. We were utterly speechless when we received a tender of $324k which was $20k over the expected price. After going through this draft tender, we realised that the overestimations were the same - however several other items were underestimated. The most significant being a garage which was originally quoted to be $10k turned out to be $20k. Upon discussing these differences with the tender presenter, even she was surprised by what the sales representative estimated. The best course of action advised at this point was to go back to the sales representative and work out what other items to "cut out".
Over weeks of tedious discussion and plenty of time wasted, the only achievable house within the budget was not even close to the initial build which was promised. It was no longer a home that we wanted to build. The sales representative admitted fault to the miscalculations - but at this stage our trust was already severely broken and all we wanted was to get a refund on the $950 deposit. We were definitely not satisfied with the service; misled unfairly to place a tender deposit with underestimations. A few thousand is understandable, however in my eyes over $20k difference is unacceptable. This was the main reason why we did not end up accepting the tender with Rawson Homes.
Other reasons included poor attitude from the tender presenter (repeated emails with incorrect client name/contact details which represented overall bad customer service skills), continual pressure to sign the tender and pay the acceptance fee despite on-going discussions on the build. What hit the nail on the coffin was a request from the tender presenter for an ADDITIONAL $1000 due to delay of signing the tender. At this point, it was simply goodbye Rawson Homes - your service was not received well. My partner and I were just unfortunate to deal with different representatives to those whom were praised in the positive reviews.
[f you require information on the sales representative accountable, tender presenter or other information to back up the facts stated above - feel free to message me and I will provide them happily.]

Very bad service – I won’t suggest Rawson homes to anyone in my life. They say something else to sign the deal and after that they never listen to clients. First of all they must educate their front end staff , who gave false promises. We are spending nearly 700,000 in construction and now feeling so frustrated . All the excitement for our new home is gone because… Read more
they are taking it too long. For weeks and weeks they are not doing anything. In our case already 44 weeks passed and we don’t know when they are going to handover. They are just doing whatever they want. We spent 35,000 on staircase and they left roof access on top which I never saw in that place , it’s mainly in bedroom .

**Review of Rawson Homes – Leppington Office** We began our journey with Rawson Homes in November 2024 by visiting the Leppington display homes. The quality and design of the displays were impressive and ultimately inspired our selection of the Remi22 design. Our initial experience with the sales process, however, presented a significant area… Read more · 1
for improvement. Following our visit, engaging with the sales team to obtain a formal quote proved challenging. We encountered a consistent attitude that felt dismissive and unaccommodating, which was disappointing after a considerable effort to visit in person. As the first point of contact, a positive and professional sales experience is crucial for client confidence, and we found this stage difficult to navigate.
Fortunately, our experience improved markedly once we progressed. The initial soil analysis and subsequent drafting of plans were handled efficiently, providing a realistic and updated price based on their findings. Our case was then transferred to the wider Rawson office, where we were assigned to Mary-Anne. Her service was exceptional. She provided thorough explanations, listened attentively to our needs, and restored our confidence in the process. We are very grateful for her outstanding support.
We signed the contract in March 2025 and were extremely pleased to secure a $50,000 discount. Even after incorporating approximately $50,000 in upgrades, Rawson’s overall pricing remained highly competitive and unmatched by other builders we consulted.
After signing, Mary-Anne clearly outlined the construction timeline and process. A key piece of advice for future clients is that **patience during the pre-construction planning phase is essential**. While the preparatory work took time, it ultimately paid dividends by ensuring a smoother construction period. We also recommend carefully considering all upgrade choices before council approval, as changes afterward are difficult to implement.
Construction commenced with the slab poured in late July 2025, and we are now in the final stages. Overall, our experience has been very positive. What distinguishes Rawson Homes is their established office structure and the accountability of their staff. Once past the initial sales stage, the team demonstrated strong responsibility and professionalism in their respective roles, leading to a well-executed build.
“I’m extremely grateful for the assistance provided by Mary-Anne. She went above and beyond to help me, offering clear information, patience, and genuine care throughout the entire process. Her excellent communication and supportive attitude made a big difference. Thank you, Mary-Anne, for your remarkable service.” Show details · 1
Rawson Homes Warranty Service - Excellent – The best part about our build process was the Rawson Homes Warranty Service provided by Gordon Moustafa.

prompt with her replies and always super helpful. I feel like we got very lucky having her and picking Rawson after you hear so many horry stories about other builders. Hoping our construction phase is just as wonderful as pre-construction.
RAWSON HOMES, absolutely fantastic ! – Where do we start, from the initial time we walked into Rawson Homes at Leppington HomeWorld and had our first consultation with Sam it has been all positive from there. Then afterwards working with Gina and Vanessa with all our selections were outstanding and they were very knowledgeable . Can't wait for our build to start very soon. Show details

Good Experience building with RH – We didn't have the best of starts with RH as the sales team were average at best. Not disclosing enough information and having to chase them for items which we believe should have been suggested/advised by them. The sales to PCA process generally wasn't clear. We believe they need to work on this and provide a clear concise process/flowchart with… Read more
anticipated timeframes.
However the pre construction team were excellent and made up for the poor start. They were timely in responses, catered well to our needs and generally accommodating of our requests. The process was explained clearly with associated timelines. Though we had our PCA change mid way, both Maddison and Gina were awesome to deal with!
Construction went smoothly in general. 9 months build time for a double storeyed 30sq house is commendable. Shout out to Andy who has provided a generally quality house. He dealt with issues well and is assisting with the immediate critical defect rectification process. Will provide a further update post 13 week warranty period.
Overall, we'd recommend RH.

We had heard the pre-construction stage is quite frustrating and doing all the selections is quite tedious job, but the pre-construction administrators Gina and Venessa helped us a lot in every stages weather it was with any selections or documentations. They were very prompt in responding to all queries and made our pre-construction journey so comfortable and easy. Our best wishes with all the Rawson homes staff. Now desperately waiting for the construction to begin. I am sure we will enjoy the construction journey as well with our site supervisor.
Dream Come True – My family is grateful with the way our dream house was built. With the able management of Rawson and its building team headed by Andrew, the house was finished ahead of schedule.
