Our Build Process
Five steps to building with Creation Homes
Step 1 — Select your design
Shape the look and feel of your new home. We will guide you in selecting the best layout, facade, colour-scheme, appliance package and finishes for your home. Our interior packages have been thoughtfully curated by our inhouse design team to align with relevant property trends and to suit your intrinsic style.
Step 2 — Secure your home
We provide a draft building contract that will include all schematic selections and any upgrade options. The developer will prepare a separate contract for the land. Within 7-10 days of initial deposit we will ask you to sign both of these contracts and pay a full land and home deposit.
Step 3 — Welcome to the family
After signing your build contract and paying your deposit you’ll be warmly welcomed into the Creation Homes family and introduced to your support network of building experts. Have peace of mind knowing your investment is secure and protected under our insurance policy.
Step 4 — Building your vision
It’s time to bring your new home to life! Once settlement of your land is approved, Creation Homes will commence construction. We will provide regular updates to keep you up to speed on progress and confirm quality at every checkpoint. Progress payments will commence with construction, as per your building contract.
Step 5 — Handing over the keys
Following our final in-depth settlement inspection you will be ready to move in. Creation Homes welcome new homeowners with a Handover Pack comprising keys, a three month maintenance warranty and a lifetime structural guarantee.

Commonly asked questions
How much deposit do I need to secure a Creation Home?
You can secure your new home build with a $3,000 build deposit. When purchasing as a house and land package you will also need to pay a land deposit, which is estate dependant. Normally, this can range between 5%- 10%.
What home types and floorplan options do you have?
Our in-house design team tailor a range of unique floorplan and facade options for each estate to cater to the character of the community and the demographics of it’s residents. For those who have their own land, we also have a range of modern 2 and 3 bedroom homes designed with new, growing and established families in mind.
How long will it take between signing a contract and moving in?
Our current guidance from signing a house and land contract to moving in is as follows:
- Contract of sale – issue, signing and execution, allow 14 days.
- Getting on site – Once your land has been titled we are able to start work on your new home. Allow 4 – 8 weeks for site and project preparations.
- Construction – As per your contract, please allow 370 days from site start to completion date.
This information is accurate as at May 2023 – please refer to your contract for timeline advice relating to your specific home. This can be different depending on the development or estate.
Townhomes will also be dependent on the development, but as a guide, we estimate a construction program of approximately 420 days.
Can I make changes along the way?
We want you to love your home, and for it to suit your family’s lifestyle and needs. Therefore we encourage you to take your time, consult our designers and decide on the perfect plans for your new home.
You are welcome to make any adjustments to your plan or selections prior to the building permit submission. However, to help us stay on track for our 4-8 week timeline from title to site start, it’s important to finalise any variations before signing the contract and having them included in the agreement.
Where do I find floorplans and pricing?
If you are an agent, you can view and download all our current packages and floorplans thought our dedicated agent portal. The button that will link you through to this is in the footer and the main menu on this site.
If you are a customer please reach out to us via our enquiry form and our sales consultant will be in contact to get an understanding of your needs, location and budget. They will then be able to supply you with a range of suitable options.
I have purchased land already, can Creation Homes still build my home?
Absolutely! We build homes on both existing or new land. Once you choose your favorite floorplan to suit your needs our internal drafting team can site the house on your block of land to make sure it’s exactly what you’re looking for.
I’ve never heard of Creation Homes before? Are you new?
We get this a lot! Actually we have been around for over a decade and have delivered over 7,000 places for people to call ‘home’. We are in the top 20 builders in Australia according to the HIA.
Because we are a wholesale builder, we usually work directly with developers and their sales teams to create packages for their estates.
But while the direct to public model is not our main channel, we are able to build for individual families, and because we don’t have the big operating, marketing and display village expenses that the other major Australian home builders have, we can offer better value.
What star-rating do your homes achieve?
Creation Homes is excited to announce the launch of our new Energy Smart home range. This collection has been thoughtfully crafted with a Whole-of-Home approach to sustainability and achieving a 7-star NaTHERS rating. Our new designs are specifically created to cater to modern families, incorporating the latest trends and contemporary styles and aesthetics, while lowering energy bills.
