Build & Buy: New Home Build Cost Estimator

To deliver a fast, easy, hassle-free quality home while keeping costs to a minimum, we offer preselected options in our build & buy process. Once you have agreed to the inclusions on your quotation and formal contracts have been ordered, no further structural changes to your plan will be permitted. However, if you would like to upgrade your home's internal fixtures and fittings, such as tiles, tapware, lighting, and more, you can book an appointment in the Everyday Homes Design Hub. The Design Hub lets you view the same upgrade options as in our online builder, in person, with an experienced Interior Design Consultant. If you require more personalisation, we recommend purchasing from our Designer Series range, where one of our design consultants will personalise your home design and level of inclusion.

BASIX stands for ‘Building and Sustainability Index’ – it’s a NSW energy efficiency rating scheme. Each new build in NSW must meet the minimum energy-efficiency requirements set out by BASIX. Our Build & Buy tool lets you select from our BASIX packages to reduce household energy and water use and improve the well-being of home occupants.

You can purchase a home from Build & Buy where your land is in South-West Sydney growth region. Your block of land also needs to permit CDC (Complying Development compliance) so we can deliver your home in the shortest timeframe available.

Costs vary, which is why Build & Buy is designed to show your personalised price in real time.

Average costs vary by location, but you can typically expect to pay per square metre. Your level of personalisation and the inclusions you choose greatly influence the final quote. In Sydney, Everyday Homes' floor plans start at around $250,000, with additional costs and build options added as you use the tool.

Expenses may vary due to factors such as site conditions, material choices, labour rates, and local regulations. For a precise quote, use our Build and Buy tool to tailor your package options.

As an online purchase with automated systems, the process takes approximately 3 months shorter than purchasing from builders with only retail display homes. From when the building consent is obtained, single-storey homes normally take 30 weeks, and double-storey homes normally take 36 weeks to construct. Our client portal will provide you with live images at each critical stage, so you can visit the construction site at your leisure.

Everyday Homes engages an engineer to conduct a soil test and site classification to determine the type of footing system required.

The requirements for your individual block of land are initially determined by the builder during the site inspection (if applicable) and pre-planning assessment. As part of the building approval process, the building assessor will conduct compliance checks.

Yes, you can by reviewing the 10.7 certificate for your block of land, which you can order from the council. If you are building within an estate with developer guidelines, you can also determine the criteria.

The fee is for Everyday Homes to undertake a site inspection and produce your Tender documents, which will form part of your building contract. Should we determine that we are unable to build on your land, then we will refund your $500 payment in full.
