Your New Build Advocate
Hi, I'm Luke, the founder of New Build Assist. With over 20 years of hands-on experience in Australia's building and property industry, I've seen it all. I've worked alongside every trade on both residential and commercial projects, gaining deep insight into what makes a build successful and, more importantly, where things often go wrong.
My passion for creating a better building experience is personal. In 2006, my own dream home build turned into a nightmare due to poor management, costly mistakes, and a lack of communication. This first-hand experience revealed a desperate need for a supportive service that was truly independent from building companies—a service that would advocate for the client.
That’s why I started New Build Assist. I wanted to use my extensive industry knowledge to ensure others could build with confidence, not complication. My goal is to help you build your dream home the right way, resulting in a quality-built home that perfectly matches your lifestyle and budget.
The New Build Assist Difference
What sets us apart is our unwavering commitment to you. We're not just a referral service; we are your dedicated partner throughout the entire building journey.
Truly Independent, Expert Guidance: Our support is completely independent. We leverage over two decades of industry experience to provide impartial advice tailored to your specific needs.
A Personalised Approach: We start by getting to know you. We dive deep to understand your vision, lifestyle, and budget to help you find the perfect combination of land, design, and builder. If the right design doesn't exist, we can even help you create a custom floor plan.
Vetted Network of Professionals: We connect you with a curated network of trusted and reliable builders who are suited for your specific project and budget. We also do the heavy lifting of conducting rigorous due diligence on builders to ensure they meet our high standards for quality, financial stability, and communication.
Unyielding Commitment to Quality: We believe you deserve a home built to the highest standards. That's why a core part of our service is arranging and paying for comprehensive, independent building inspections at every critical stage of construction. These third-party checks provide peace of mind and help catch any potential issues before they become major problems.
A Completely Free Service: Our expert guidance and inspection coordination are provided at absolutely no cost to you. We are paid a referral fee by the builder you select, which comes from their marketing budget and does not increase your build cost. We then invest a portion of this fee back into your project to cover the independent inspections.
