Why choose Locale as your building broker
Unbiased advice, tailored to you
We prioritise your best interests (not a big corporation’s). Unlike a traditional salesperson with a one-builder focus, we are unbiased advocates who help you find the best builder, block and home design to suit your needs.
Get insider knowledge
As partners of land agents and industry insiders, we offer you exclusive access to more options and critical insights into builder reputations, current build times, and practices. If a builder doesn’t meet our high standards, we won’t recommend them.
The most choice in one place
Access a huge range of designs from our panel of trusted builders, all in one place.
We are sure that we’ll find the perfect place for you – one that ticks all the boxes and fits your budget.
A partner through it all
We’ll work to secure competitive finance that suits you, secure your block, and select the right builder who can make your perfect place happen.
We’re by your side – if you want advice in your pre-start or want clarification during construction, we are here.
Backed by experience
As experts in the Perth property and building industry, we stay ahead of the latest regulations, trends, and materials—ensuring your home is built to last.
It means we know what hidden costs to look out for; what to include and what to leave out; and who to trust with your new home.

How it works
Got questions? We’ve got answers
Choosing to work with Locale Homes means you’ll have a property partner in your corner every step of the way. Advocating for you. We’ll take the time to understand your unique needs, so we can help guide you toward the perfect place for you, not what’s best for anyone else.
There are numerous factors to consider when building your dream home, such as design, land utilisation, and inclusions and our primary aim is to simplify the entire process, making it stress-free and easy. We’ll tell you everything you need to hear so you feel empowered to make the right decision.
You also get choice, choice without all of the hard work researching and speaking to different builders. That’s what we do.
Leveraging our industry experience, we also work on your behalf to negotiate the best deal.
At Locale Homes, we do not charge any additional upfront fees to our customers.
We get paid by the respective building company when we identify the right home for our clients. If you choose to work with our in-house finance team at Locale Finance, our in-house finance brokers get paid by the banks directly so there are no extra costs to you.
This model follows the same standard approach as other insurance or financial brokerages.
Our business is based on customer experience and advocacy, unlike individual corporations pushing their one product on you. We are all for choice and providing unbiased advice.
Your price will be comparable and often more affordable than other new home options, with the added value of having an advocate with you each step of the way to ensure your expectations are met and your purchasing experience is one to be celebrated.
We focus on providing true value for money for our customers. We ensure you’re aligned with a builder that can deliver on; customer experience, timeframes, quality construction, high-level finishes, proper aftercare, and a lifetime warranty. We carefully select and partner with builders who share our values and have a proven track record of working in the best interest of our customers.
This means you can have peace of mind knowing that you won’t find yourself in a horror story scenario with hidden costs, poor quality, and prolonged building times.
If you do not proceed, there is no cost to you. We’re here to advocate for our customers and if you choose to not proceed based on what is right for you, we are in support of your decision.
Yes, we work with all land developers, from the largest in Australia to smaller, boutique developments.
Our reputation in the industry has given us unparalleled access to a wide range of land estates. This allows us to offer our customers an extensive selection of land options that are tailored to their specific needs and preferences.
Additionally, as we work for you, we are here to advocate for the best lot of land and contract terms.
We are committed to helping anyone find their perfect place, regardless of whether it’s their first, second, or third home.
While we do offer a helping hand to first homebuyers in particular, we are here to support all buyers in their home-buying journey. Our focus is on providing a customer-centric experience that is personalised to your unique needs and aspirations.
Everyone.
Of course we would say that. But if you answer yes to any of these questions, a building broker could be a game-changer for you:
- First home buyer?
- Overwhelmed and not sure where to start?
- Too busy to shop around or even get started?
- Wasting time comparing builders and specs?
- Are you wasting time shopping around for a builder?
- Need advice on what builder to go with?
- New to WA and unsure about builders or finance options and government incentives?
- Looking for a full service solution to sorting your finance, finding land and the perfect home design from a builder that will deliver?
If any of these sound like you, we’re here to help simplify the process and guide you every step of the way. We’ll do that hard work for you.

In a way, yes – you could consider us to be a building broker platform with a finance arm. However, there’s a significant difference between Locale Homes and other building brokers out there. We’re proud to bring a level of scale and sophistication to the West Australian market (and eventually nationwide) that is unparalleled in the industry.
One of the ways we differentiate ourselves is through our ability to seamlessly integrate with builders using best-in-class processes, our dedicated support teams, and our ongoing investment in technology platforms. This means that we’re able to align with different builders’ processes and offer you a streamlined, hassle-free experience. You’ll have a singular point of contact throughout the entire buying journey, from attaining finance, selecting your land, to building your dream home. No need to worry about the confusion that comes when dealing with multiple people.
You can rest assured knowing that we will be by your side, offering guidance through the decision-making process and helping you steer clear of any costly mistakes.
No, we’re not a builder. We will work with you to identify what will make your home truly unique and meets your requirements. Once we have a clear understanding of your vision, we’ll help you find the perfect builder who can make your dreams a reality.
Throughout the process, we’ll be your singular point of contact and guide you every step of the way. We’ll provide you with a behind-the-scenes look at all the important considerations involved in designing and selecting your home. We want to make this process hassle-free so that you can focus on enjoying the exciting journey of creating your dream home.
Our Managing Director has led some of Australia’s most successful building brands, so we know exactly how the industry works and what you need to consider when making one of your largest life decisions.
This independence means we’ll tell you what you need to hear, not just what you want to hear to get you to sign on the dotted line. We vet our partners for financial stability, quality construction standards, and high customer satisfaction. We take care of the important details so you have peace of mind.
