Project homes are the affordable new homes choice
Project homes are a popular choice amongst house builders with rectangular lots who are looking for a quick turnaround from construction to move in. Most project homes can be built within 12-13 weeks, meaning you can pack your bags sooner.
Benefits of building a Project Home with Sloane Homes
If a custom home design feels like too much choice and you’re wanting to stick a really tight budget, a project home might be the answer you’re looking for. It allows for an affordable new home solution with upfront knowledge of exactly how much it’s going to set you back.
Since you’re simply choosing a pre-designed home, you don’t have to stress about the design, the materials and the cost.
1.
Project builders construct a number of houses all at the same time, it allows them to negotiate better deals on materials since they’re buying in bulk, and this ultimately benefits you as the buyer.
2.
They’re sold at a base price and can include upgrade options, such as landscaping or the addition of a patio, if it’s something you’re looking for.
3.
While project homes do mean that there are a limited options of pre-designed homes, you’ll still get a say in whether you want bricks or render, metal roof or roof tiles, the size of the windows and the facades.
Don’t stress about the design, the materials & the cost
Since you’re choosing a pre-designed home, simply choose from the variety of options and let the project home builders do their work.
Most of the time there are even display homes that you can look around to get a feel whether you like a particular design. Project homes are for those looking for a no-fuss, convenient and cost-effective solution to building their new home. We’ve been in the business of building quality and affordable project homes for years and have a variety of designs you can choose from. We even have display home so you can see the end result before you commit.

Testimonials
Sloane was such a gentle guiding force that took us through the process. He is just such a good person. He is honest, he is reliable, he is always contactable, he makes time nearly ever day to meet with you for any discussion you feel you need to have, he returns phone calls, he is a most capable organiser. If he says the plasterers will be here on Tuesday, the electrician Thursday and the plumber Friday week, guess what? It happens! He works with you to ensure that you get the house that you wanted (we would like a nib wall instead of a full height wall – no problem etc.
And the build itself? Sloane’s motto is “Come Home to Quality”, and Sloane has delivered on that motto.
When we started the build many people said “Good luck with that”. Simply, if Sloane Porth is your builder you won’t need “Good Luck”. Instead you will get a quality house from a very capable builder and project manager. And from an honest, decent, obliging, quality person.
What a great well built home I have just purchased, after inspecting several exhibition homes with no suitable result my daughter found our Sloane home and insisted I view, reluctantly I succumbed and was immediately impressed with the quality of the build, the design is excellent with sensible features you don’t get with others. Sloane and his team have been great to deal with. I can recommend them to you.
We decided to build with Sloane Homes after meeting with Sloane. We found Sloane Homes on line and didn’t know Sloane before building.
At our first meeting we found Sloane to be friendly, open and flexible with our ideas.
We had discussions with the main project builders, but went ahead with Sloane.
Very glad we did. Our house was completed in 6 months and to a very high standard of workmanship.
Sloane was on site every working day, either working or supervising the work of the trades.
We made a number of small changes along the way and Sloane was always patiently ready to accommodate us.
We are really happy with the build.
Highly recommend including Sloane Homes in your quotes.
