What our clients say
Don’t just take our word for it, our clients say it better than we ever could.
★★★★★
I cannot recommend Audris at Locale Homes highly enough! From our very first meeting, she was incredibly friendly and approachable, making what could have been a stressful process feel exciting and manageable.
She went above and beyond to help me secure the perfect piece of land, but more importantly, she gave me the confidence I needed to actually start my building journey. I am so grateful for her expertise and genuine care.
★★★★★
Have had the most amazing experience with Locale and in particular Alistair who I just can’t thank enough for what he has done for us at an extremely difficult time. Securing our piece of land and building our new home is the most unbelievable venture we are so looking forward to and so excited! The journey so far has been smooth with everything explained to really put us in the picture of our dream becoming a reality in the not too distant future. Can’t thank you enough Alistair and Locale and really looking forward to our progress this year!

Thanks to Kristen and the team for finding me the perfect block of land and organising everything from working with developers and builders to finding the perfect house plan. The whole process has been fantastic, they always answer every question, keep me in the loop with updates and I would be so lost without all their work. Highly recommend Locale Homes.
★★★★★
I can’t recommend Josh Beardsall at Locale Homes enough. His help and guidance in choosing and securing the perfect block of land for my new home was amazing. Josh made what could have been a stressful process feel incredibly straightforward. If you are looking for a home advocate who truly has your back, Josh is your guy!!! Thanks mate 👌

Let’s get to know a little more about you:
There is a type of loan that is specifically designed for house and land packages. It’s called a construction home loan, and it works a bit differently than a loan for an established property.
When you settle on the land, the lender won’t give you all of the funds from the loan. Instead, they’ll partially draw your home loan and release some of the funds to purchase the land. The remaining funds will be held by the lender and used to pay the builder’s progress claims as you reach certain milestones during construction.
Because of this, during the construction phase, your repayments will be reduced as you’ll only be required to pay the interest. Once your home loan is fully drawn (meaning you’ve paid the builder in full and received your keys), you’ll start making principal and interest payments.
Building your first home from the ground up gives you so much choice – you are in control. And because everything is brand new, you won’t find yourself trying to love a bright red splashback or dealing with stained carpets. You can also be sure that it meets the latest building standards, meets sustainability requirements, is safe and secure for your family, and with appliances that are in warranty, you will have a home that needs a lot less care and maintenance. Plus, in WA, there are great incentives for first home buyers when building, which could mean significant savings or getting onto the property ladder sooner. When buying new, you are securing the land and the building as a wholesale product. Once built, often there is an uplift in value due to being a retail ‘ready built’ product. When you build, you get to create your perfect place from scratch.
Yes. Most of our packages can be personalised to suit your block orientation, lifestyle, and budget, from floorplan tweaks to finish selections.
The scheme, previously known as First Home Guarantee, has been expanded on earlier than initially planned, launched on 1 October 2025 instead of January 2026. Here’s what’s new:
- No more place limits
Previously capped at around 50,000 spots per year, the scheme will now have unlimited places, so any eligible first home buyer with a 5% deposit can apply. - No income caps
Income thresholds (previously $125,000 for individuals and $200,000 for couples) have been removed completely—high-income earners can now also qualify. - Significantly higher property price caps
The maximum property values eligible under the scheme are rising across all states to better reflect market conditions. Highlights include:
WA (Perth metro): from $600,000 → $850,000
Other states also see major increases (e.g., Sydney to $1.5M; Brisbane to $1M)
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.
We may look shiny and new, but we’re backed by industry-leading talent who have navigated the industry’s highs and lows, all while maintaining a customer-centric approach.
With decades of experience, we are in partnership with some of the industry’s biggest names. Why does this matter? It gives us the ability to connect you with the perfect home, land, and finance options at competitive prices, with no extra fees.
Our founder, Adam Schaal, started Locale Homes with one simple premise in mind. It was that West Australians deserved a better property buying experience – one that’s focused on the customer’s needs and aspirations, not those of big corporations.
With over 10+ years in the building industry, in successful Executive Leadership positions, Adam Schaal brings a strong understanding of the industry’s intricacies, customers’ needs, and pain points, and how these can be effectively addressed in an industry that is ready for disruption.
His commitment to customer satisfaction is at the core of everything we do, and we will always go the extra mile to ensure that you have a hassle-free and enjoyable experience.
