Building your dream home comes with many decisions, so knowing when the right time to start the process can be daunting.
We know the economy has some challenges, with interest rates and inflation having an impact on the housing industry. So you may be asking yourself, ‘is now the right time to build?’
With 2025 approaching sooner than you think, let’s explore some of the factors influencing costs, and why beginning your journey with Ramsay Builders could be the choice for you.
Post the COVID years, the main factor in driving the cost of building up so rapidly was a shortage to supply key materials and finding enough labour to complete the works. We have found that the market has now caught up. Supply of materials is easier to get hold of and trades are becoming more available, which in turn means less delays to the overall construction period.
Whilst interest rates are a factor, it now appears that they are not fluctuating as much as they were 12 months ago and there may be some better options for lending (disclaimer: please discuss your financial options with a professional).
A way to assist in remaining within your budget is to understand your full scope of work. When going through the planning and design phase, create two main lists: “Must have” and “Compromise”. This will get you started on setting a realistic budget that can shape your design to suit your lifestyle.
