STEP BY STEP Your Hunter Valley Homes journey should be pleasurable and exciting after all, it s not something you do every day and it s usually the culmination of lots of planning and dreaming. When you build with us, we take all the stress out of the process and there are no surprises. We ll tell you what to expect up front; and thanks to our modular building system, the weather and unexpected site delays that impact a conventionally built home are virtually eliminated. What s more, because we construct our homes on piers to suit the lay of the land, in most cases you will not be confronted with costs for site cut and soil removal. Our off-site building method delivers a professionally built product in a fraction of the time you d expect a brick and tile home to take. Here s how it works... 22 // Hunter Valley Homes
1 2 3 4 STEP 1 SELECT WHAT YOU LIKE STEP 2 QUOTE & PLANNING STEP 3 CONTRACT & BUILD STAGE STEP 4 TIME TO MOVE IN Once you have visited one of our display homes and you have decided on the style and design of your home we ask you to provide us with a Section 149/2 Planning and Zoning certificate. This piece of information allows us to investigate your piece of land in detail ruling out constraints on your land such as bushfire and flooding along with mine subsidence, heritage and other constraints that will alter your quoted price. We are then able to give you a quote based on this information. After signing off on the quote via a preliminary agreement, we ll start organising the planning stages, drawings and paperwork for your Development Application. Contracts are signed, a deposit is taken and we sight your ability-to-pay documents. Once plans and elevations are completed with the consultant we organise a time for you to come in and complete colour selections with us. With Council approval your home will be in the construction facility for 12 to 14 weeks and we allow a further 6 to 8 weeks for completion. Hunter Valley Homes can arrange additional works such as verandahs, fencing, concreting etc which may add to the build time frame and may also be at an additional cost. Your home arrives on site fully plumbed and wired, with kitchens and bathrooms fully appointed in the construction facility. It s manoeuvred into position and final on-site construction and service connection can be completed. The last stage of the process for your new home has arrived and your final payment before handover / practical completion is due. Once your account is settled we can then organize a time to hand you your handover pack and most importantly your keys to your new HUNTER VALLEY HOME. Build times are as a guide only. Even though we are building in a controlled environment, delays can still occur due to rain, supplier and contractor issues. Hunter Valley Homes will do all within its power to complete your home within the timeframes set. Hunter Valley Homes // 23
OTHER HUNTER VALLEY HOMES BUILDINGS VILLAGE LIVING Hunter Valley Homes are also your go to for granny flats, village living and commercial buildings with a difference. Village Living including over 55 s has become a popular alternative to traditional home ownership particularly at retirement age. You do not have to spend thousands of dollars to purchase your own block of land, you simply rent your site at a nominal weekly cost. This then allows you to buy the home you want and may provide funds to invest or have those much deserved holidays. Village living offers a low maintenance and secure environment and they are usually located close to all amenities in nice quiet areas. GRANNY FLATS Granny Flats are comfortable, self contained homes for loved ones on the same site as the family home. They are becoming increasingly popular and Hunter Valley Homes Granny Flats offer the security and reassurance of being close to caring family, whilst maintaining privacy and independence. DUAL OCCUPANCY Dual Occupancy offers an ideal investment opportunity where you can build two homes on one block of land. You may want to live in one and either rent for additional income, or use it to house a family member where they can live close at hand but in their own privacy. CARAVAN PARKS Cabins, Ensuites, Games Rooms etc: We have a range of 1,2 & 3 bedroom layouts available, some with 2 bathrooms, spas and other luxury options. Our cabins come fully furnished with lounge suites, dining tables, chairs, beds, wardrobes, window & floor coverings. We can also supply modern appliances such as washing machines, dishwashers, LCD TV s, cushions and even wall art.
