Thank you Latitude Homes for building our first home! It was our first time to build a home and we were told that behind the excitement are stressful decisions and unexpected twists and turns. The section that we wanted our home to be built was not as steep as others in the Wellington region, but the wind factor is really strong here in our section. Latitude was willing to take on the project. Our home was a mix of standard and non-standard specs. They used good quality materials and they were transparent with the costs. The build wasn't without hiccups but Latitude made sure things get sorted. The actual physical build took roughly 9 months to complete; June 2018 until March 2019. I guess 8 months if we exclude the holiday break. We were told by friends and colleagues that it should only take 6 months to build but as Alix mentioned- “he doesn’t want to compromise the quality of the build”, which gave me confidence in Alix and Latitude. Latitude was already with us almost 3 years ago from the planning and paper works. Alix, Amanda and their project managers supported and guided us throughout the entire home building experience. When I signed the contract to build our home with Alix and Latitude, he mentioned to me that “the key to a successful project is communication” and I’m glad both of us are in the same page. Since we have someone from the Latitude team that communicates with us and for us, we were shielded from most of the stress of building our home. Overall, I highly recommend Latitude Homes giving them 4.5 stars. The Wellington team is a pleasure to deal with especially Alix and Amanda who are trustworthy and easy to talk to. If we get the chance to build another home, I would gladly ask Alix and the Latitude team to build our next one.
