What to Expect From Your First Conversation
Eryn Stannard explains why starting early makes all the difference — and what happens when you book a consultation with us.
Key takeaways:
- It usually takes around 6 months from first chat to site start — because of council approvals, design, and preparation.
- Starting early helps secure your build slot and keeps your project on track.
- You don’t need land or finance finalised to start the conversation — but having them ready makes the process smoother and faster.
- If you already have rough plans or design ideas, we can move even quicker into approvals and scheduling.
- We’ll focus on your family, your lifestyle, and your goals — no sales pitch, just guidance.
- Every home is designed to your budget and vision, avoiding nasty surprises later.

A Word From Ryan
“I started building on site with my dad at 15. I’ve seen too many families get let down by poor communication and false promises in this industry. That’s why our process is simple, honest, and transparent — so you know exactly what to expect at every step. Our first consultation is about listening to you and understanding your vision, not pushing a contract.”
— Ryan Stannard, Director
