Builder’s strong partnerships and simple process smooths your path to homeownership

Residential builder Forma Homes was established with the goal of delivering an improved building experience.

Rather than selling directly to consumers through display homes and internal sales teams, the company operates solely through a network of independent building brokers who help clients find the right home and land solutions while Forma Homes concentrates on the construction process.

“We recognised an opportunity in the Western Australian housing market for a builder that focused exclusively on supporting independent building brokers, property investors, developers and strategic partners,” Forma Homes Operations Manager Luke Ransted said.

“Instead of competing with our building broker partners for clients, we work alongside them.

“Our philosophy remains the same as when we started – build strong partnerships, keep the process simple and always deliver on our promises.”

For first homebuyers, Mr Ransted said the approach offered significant advantages.

“Rather than being limited to the products and advice of a single builder, they gain access to an independent professional who can help them investigate their options,” he said.

“The journey begins with an independent broker helping buyers understand their budget, explore home designs, find the right land, and create a house and land package that aligns with their lifestyle and financial goals.

“Once the buyer is ready, our team guides them through the contracts and approvals, and welcomes them to the Forma Design Studio to personalise their new home.

“We also coordinate the necessary construction documentation and preparation for site work.

“Once construction begins, we manage the build while providing progress updates and communicating key milestones.

“As the home nears completion, we conduct quality checks, arrange for the final handover and welcome the buyer into their brand new home.

“Their building broker remains an integral part of the relationship, providing additional support throughout the process.

“This partnership aims to provide first homebuyers with the best of both worlds – independent advice and personalised service from their broker, along with Forma Homes’ construction expertise, efficient processes and high-quality building experience from beginning to end.”

Before pursuing a new build, Mr Ransted said first homebuyers should conduct thorough research and ask plenty of questions.

“Take the time to understand your budget, identify what you’re looking for in your first home and look into the various options available to you,” he said.

“Instead of focusing solely on the advertised price, consider what is included in your home, the quality of construction, the builder’s experience and their ability to provide reliable pricing and construction timeframes.

“Choosing the right building broker is equally important.

“A good broker will help you navigate the process, understand your options and make informed decisions that align with your needs and financial situation.

“With the right guidance from the beginning, a clear understanding of the process and the support of an experienced building team, building your first home can be an exciting and rewarding experience rather than an overwhelming one.”

Mr Ransted said first homebuyers who chose Forma Homes benefited from a more connected building journey.

“By combining the personalised service of our building broker partners with our construction expertise, established systems and commitment to communication, we strive to provide every client with a building experience where they feel informed, supported and confident from start to finish,” he said.

Forma Homes empowers homebuyers with trusted guidance, genuine choice and expert knowledge, creating thoughtfully designed rare breed homes where exceptional craftsmanship and lasting quality come together.
