Congratulations. It's time to move in to your new home!
A builder broker acts as an independent advisor who connects you with the right builder for your new home. Instead of visiting dozens of display homes, a builder broker assesses your budget, land, design preferences, and build goals to match you with trusted builders in South East Queensland. At Nesta, we partner with a panel of reputable, licensed builders, ensuring you get transparent quotes, accurate timelines, and a smooth journey from planning to construction.
A builder broker can save you thousands by comparing multiple builders and negotiating fair inclusions upfront. We understand where hidden costs and inflated margins can appear in contracts. By managing quotes, clarifying specifications, and leveraging our industry knowledge, Nesta helps you avoid costly mistakes and ensures your budget is spent where it adds the most value, not on unnecessary sales overheads.
No. Our service is completely free for clients. Nesta operates on a builder-paid commission model, meaning the builder compensates us as part of their standard marketing and sales budget. You get expert advice, builder matching, and full project guidance at no extra cost. It’s a transparent, win–win model where we only succeed when your build does.
Absolutely. We work with many first-home buyers across Brisbane, the Gold Coast, and surrounding areas. Nesta simplifies the entire building process from finance pre-approval and land selection to choosing the right home design. We help you understand government incentives, grants, and builder promotions, so you can make confident decisions and get the best value for your first build.
You absolutely can. Our relationship with our builder partners is critical to you getting the best experience, so we're not here to list the negatives of going direct. If you're an expert, go for it. If you feel like there's more to understand, working with a broker makes your life much, much easier. A builder broker like Nesta provides independent guidance, comparing multiple reputable builders side by side so you get competitive quotes. We ensure you receive transparent pricing, matched expectations, and an advocate who represents your interests throughout a fairly complicated process.
