Shack Family - From start to finish – we couldn’t be happier.
“When we decided to build, we looked around and settled on Latitude Homes because we liked what they had to offer. By the end of the process we couldn’t have been happier. The house looks great and the level of customer service would be hard to match.
On top of that, our house won a bronze in the 2009 Registered Master Builder awards in the under $250K category. The awards recognise excellence, quality and innovation in building work. The judges don’t just focus on the quality of the fittings or the design, they also place a great deal of importance on the quality of the workmanship, looking for and recognising examples of the highest standard.
We had such a good relationship with Lynda and Stephen from Latitude Homes – they worked alongside us to make sure our finished home is really what we wanted without having to compromise on anything.
To be living in a home that is perfect for us is fantastic – to then win a nationally recognised award from within the industry was like the icing on the cake”.
Many thanks Simon & Liz, Elle & Jessica Shack
To Lynda and Stephen,
As novices, we had no idea where to start or how to go about building a home on our back section. Over many months we looked at other building institutes, GJ Homes and other kitset places, but gladly settled with Latitude Homes for a number of reasons: acknowledgement of our needs, expert knowledge of the building field, dedication to detail and the patience you had with us in making the right decision on which house to build.
The past year has not been without hitches, not of your making but the ongoing battle with the council took its toll. To your credit we came through this with heads held high… Thank you.
The outcome is a wonderfully finished four-bedroom home. It is to a very high standard and we couldn’t have asked for better craftsmanship. Not to mention that every tradesman that came onto our property did so with the utmost respect and professionalism. This is a credit to you both because it’s the people at the helm who dictate the workmanship protocol.
Patrick and I would like to acknowledge you both for the professional and very personal touches you provided in the building of our second home. We cannot speak more highly of your dedication to us and we would not hesitate in passing on your praises to others who are thinking of building.
Many thanks Lynda and Stephen, the mana you left behind will always be treasured.
Patrick and Raewyn Paea
Hi Everyone,
There aren’t enough words to express the last year’s experience with you all. A big thank you to Stephen and Lynda - you have both gone over and above the call of duty and I am so humbled by my dealings with you.
From start to finish I have had an awesome experience. Even when due to personal circumstances the build was delayed you were very supportive and the heartfelt well wishes from you both were very much appreciated. I never doubted for a minute that my house would be built – it was just a matter of when.
Then in June we got started and from that time onwards it just kept going. Every stage was fantastic to see – from watching the slab go down to the framing going up. I knew my house was in the right hands from the builders to the tradesmen.
Then the house was complete and we had our walk through on the 14th November. A day I will never forget. I can firmly say that I have gained 2 new friends whom I already feel I’ve known for a lifetime.
Now I have moved in and I love it. Without hesitation I would recommend Latitude Homes to anyone. You rock Latitude Homes – you have the best people – I can’t emphasis that enough.
My house is beautiful. Thank you so very very much!

To Marc, Noel & the team at Latitude Homes...
It's not often that we feel compelled to write a thank you letter when dealing with building companies but after our experiences with Latitude Homes we thought it only deserving to give credit where credit is due.
After much deliberation we finally settled on Latitude Homes to build our next project. Any fears we had prior to commencing our project were quickly dispelled once we began dealing with the Latitude team as their professionalism, understanding and dedication to realizing our dream was outstanding.
The whole process was made so much easier as they are a company that will listen to 'what the customer wants' and will do their upmost to deliver on this. Their communication is outstanding and even though some of our requests may have pushed the envelope a little they delivered 110%.
We would certainly have no hesitation in recommending Marc & his Latitude team for your building project however big it is.
A big thank you to Latitude Homes for our wonderful new house and a hassle free experience, we wish them all the best.
Kind Regards, Bryan, Corina & Mackenzie Keating.
Paul Couper - Housing Developer “ I had
done my homework and looked around at about 4 housing companies
in total. I chose to build with Latitude Homes for both of my investment
properties because I was most impressed with their designs, the
quality of the finished product, the price and the value for money
was the best.
As a property investor, finding a building company that could project manage
the entire process was critical as I’m really busy with my other businesses
and don’t have time to get involved in the day- to-day issues. Having said
that, the communication from the team on the progress of the house was excellent.
When I did run into a hold up with council compliance Latitude Homes was invaluable
in identifying the problem and resolving it on my behalf.
I would definitely recommend Latitude Homes to anyone who is interested
in building a house for an investment or to live in themselves – when
I build again I won’t be considering anyone else.”
Krista, Daniel and Zane- First Home Builders “We chose to build with Latitude Homes because of the
range of designs that we could choose from and the price. The
finishing products were important to us, so we’re really
pleased with the James Hardie Linea® weatherboards we used
on the outside. The house didn’t take that long to complete – deadlines
were met throughout the whole process and the level of service
from the team at Latitude homes was excellent.
We’ve already recommended Latitude Homes to a few friends
of ours who are thinking of building as we don’t really
think any other building company could provide better service
or offer better price, designs or quality. “
Carol Burton “Before
I built my house I looked at a number of building companies to
get a good comparison of prices, designs and to get an idea of
what level of service each was offering. I decided to go with Latitude
Homes because I felt they won out in all areas.
I have a bush section so had a number of difficulties with council
permits. Latitude Homes made these trying times much easier to
get through with excellent communication and support. Their full
build service was comprehensive and I found their level of service
both prior to and during building second to none.
I would easily recommend Latitude Homes to anyone who is wanting
to build their own home – I believe that they definitely
offer the best price, service and range of floorplans to choose
from.“
Mike Welsh "After considering a number of
other building companies I chose Latitude Homes to build my house
mainly because they were unbeatable on price. Then further down the
track I found that their service was great as well – everything
ran smoothly, timeframes were met, communication was fantastic and
the whole process didn’t cause me any stress! I would
definitely recommend LatitudeHomes to anyone who wants a quality
home built at a good price."
Bryan "We bought our kitset home off the
plans but we weren’t actually involved in the process of choosing
building companies. We did, however, have a great deal to do with
choosing the colour schemes, the bricks and roofing for our home.
We couldn’t be happier with the final result. We were also
very impressed with the level of service and help we received from
Latitude Homes and would definitely recommend them to anyone who
was wanting value for money and a supportive building partner. "
Steve Palmer “I chose to build a kitset
home with Latitude Homes because I had built with them previously
and I found them great to deal with. They kept the whole building
process nice and simple, and even when I was dealing with resource
consents etc they did what they could to help. I will definitely
go back to Latitude Homes when I’m ready to build again – and
yes, I’ve already recommended a Latitude Homes kitset home
to other friends looking for a stress free way of building a house”.
Treena Myers Testimonial "When we decided to build our own home we wanted to find a housing company that would be flexible in their designs and their approach. We found what we were looking for with Latitude Homes. The house was built to Shell stage and we finished it ourselves with the kitchen and bathrooms the way we wanted them. Dealing with Latitude Homes was really easy. They were very flexible and we were able to change the floorplan design without any extra costs.
Latitude Homes exceeded our expectations and we have a beautiful home we will treasure for many years to come."
