Going into this journey at the beginning myself and my cousin were scared of being knocked back again as we were many times before, all we needed was someone to give us a chance, when we first made contact we expected another "No sorry there is nothing we can do" but what we did get and have continued to get is so much support from Brooke Rachel and the Balfour Homes Team, we finally are given a chance. The team have been nothing short of amazing from support and talking us through everything throughout the whole process thus far, they take care of everything and what we want for our home and if ever there is a will Brooke will always find a way making what we always thought the impossible possible buying land and a home was only ever a dream now thanks to Balfour Homes we are making moves towards that dream.

Hi Guys, we just wanted to say a huge thank you. I remember when i first spoke to Brooke I told her we weren't ready to buy a house because everyone we had spoken to wanted us to be debt free and have the full deposit before they would even look at us. And it was because of Brooke and Rachel that we have even made it this far! We will be forever grateful to Balfour Homes, who stuck by us when nobody else did. We finally have our land, and we are so excited to go on our building adventure! We are so glad you will be with us until the end. 100% would recommend these guys to any family or couple just looking at getting their foot in the door of their new home. They really do make dreams come true.

Brooke and the team at Balfour homes has been with us every step of the way and have been nothing short of amazing. Balfour homes go above and beyond and have explained everything as we have approached each stage thus far. Will definitely be recommending these guys they're professional and very responsive with queries. Thank you for helping make our dreams a reality.

Brooke, Rachel, Rebecca and the rest of the teams did amazing to help us get a house in Brisbane. They guide us, give us all the information that we need to know, they even tried to find solutions to every problem that have occurred. Quality service, very optimistic and they will answer all your questions and needs. They are also very accessible even we live in North QLD, we can easily communicate with them and team through their apps that you can download in your phone. When you lr planning to get a house, I highly recommend Balfour Homes! Percent awesome team!

The whole process has been completely stress free and it all seems very streamlined. Cody is an absolute pleasure to deal with and always gets back to you with any query you have and I can tell he loves his job, good sign he's good at it.

Cody, Jimmy and the team at Balfour homes have been beyond amazing!
We didn't think we would ever be able to get into the property market - but Cody assured us and has been there every step of the way. We assumed it would be a long process - but before we knew it we had land and ready to build our very first home.
The team at Balfour are very knowledgeable and will answer any questions you have. They take you step by step through the process as fast or as slow you like to make sure you understand everything before signing. Balfour Homes do all the hard work for you, but consulting with you every step to get what you want in your home. Balfour have been an amazing company and we hope to use them again in the future.

This is the best Christmas present we could ever ask for! We have struggled to raise the full deposit amount to purchase/ build a home! Balfour homes walks you through every step! The process is not overnight, however the team are incredibly patient and understanding! Without them we wouldn’t be signing our contracts! The team are very knowledgeable about what they do! No question is too difficult, (and I was never snickered at for my stupid question!). Jimmy is so so patient! I highly recommend Balfour homes. Trust in the process to get you over the line and into your own home!

Balfour homes were absolutely amazing to work with! Cody contacted us about a month ago as we were scrolling on Facebook an advertisement came up and that’s were we put our details down. In about two weeks after the first phone call we were pre approved and choosing what type of house we would like to build! Honestly Cody is the most efficient person we have ever been in contact with, so professional as well! Every question was answered, he gave us all the information we needed it was super easy and quick. Thank you to Cody and Balfour homes for all the help you’ve been so amazing!

When my partner and I were told our rental property was being sold and we needed to find a new place to live it just so happened that an advertisement for Balfour came across my screen. We had no intention of starting to look into the property market but after looking at pricey rentals we thought why not just start looking into it. Within an hour of registering our interest Cody called and discussed with us what we were looking for in our first home build. Before we knew it we had designs ready to go and bank applications being progressed. We had always wanted to build a home however never thought we'd be doing it this soon. Cody progressed everything through swiftly and was able to do all the talking and discussions for us. Which as two full time workers who barely have any spare time really assisted in getting the process done as soon as possible. The use of their Balfour app means everything is in one spot and is a direct communication line to all involved. Buying a first house is always going to be a stressful situation and to add to it building our first home made everything a lot more complex but everyone at Balfour - Cody, Kailum and Jimmy ensured this process was as simple as it could be from finance, to liaising builders and lawyers to just comforting us when inevitable delays had occurred. I write this now just as we received settlement for our first home build yesterday and cannot be happier. Thanks to everyone again at Balfour for making this dream a reality!

Both Jessie and Kailum were very helpful and looked into everything I asked and came back to me with the outcome. Very efficient, personable and professional. I would definitely use this company again.

My partner and I took a leap of faith when we reached out to Balfour Homes in the hope of returning to the housing market. We are both close to 50, so in the grand scheme of buying again, time isn't necessarily on our side. Our dealings with the company, in particular Jimmy and Kailum were exceptional to say the very least. Our individual case provided some unique challenges for them, which many other companies would have put in the 'too hard basket' and told us it wasn't possible. As a result of their hard work, we are now excited to start building our dream home together. We are still pinching ourselves that it is really happening. The app used to complete the process was very easy to understand, making the process of the actual application streamlined. We have no concerns about the build because of the professionalism we have experienced first hand from the Balfour Homes team. We cannot recommend this company highly enough.
THANK YOU!
Lesley and Andrew

I contacted Balfour Homes through an ad via Facebook and the next day received a call from Jesse providing me all the information I could need to start the process of building my own home. As someone looking to get back into the property market it is daunting as most information available in the current climate is aimed at first home buyers, Jesse has helped me to feel positive about getting back into the property market, has answered every question I have had along the way and always found solutions to any obstacles every step of the way, no question has been too difficult and nothing too much trouble. I have really enjoyed working with Jesse throughout the ongoing process. Balfour's approach is personalised, modern and efficient - they really care about helping people get into their own homes! Looking forward to continuing the process as we move closer towards the building process with Balfour Homes. Thanks for all of your help Jesse!

We could not have reached the goal of building our own family home without the help of the team at Balfour Homes. Brenton and Kailum were with us the whole way. Every question answered. Every concern alleviated. They always took the time to talk you through each step. Incredible. Dream come true for us.

My wife and I were looked after by Ethan who has been amazing throughout our journey and we cannot commend him highly enough.
Ethan’s customer service and problem-solving is outstanding and no obstacle was too big to overcome.
I would definitely seek Ethan out again for any future endeavors.

Tiara from Balfour homes has been a pleasure to work with as I’m not good with computer stuff, but she helped me step by step through the process and can’t thank Tiara enough. Great team and nice homes on offers.

My husband and I have been using Balfour Homes to build our first ever home. As young couple home ownership is a daunting process; there's so much to learn about from choosing a builder to finding a mortgage broker to name just a few.

The beauty of Balfour Homes is they eliminate the stress of going it alone. Working closely with us they begun by asking us where we would like to live. We were then provided with a selection of packages in and around the areas we mentioned. The packages took into consideration what we could afford financially and how large of a block and property we wanted. Once this ball was rolling I expected communication to simmer down a bit.

This was not the case. Instead, Balfour Homes worked tirelessly to get our first home across the line. This included contacting a variety of builders and banks, liaising with mortgages brokers and breaking down what grants would be available for us. I was well and truly surprised at how personalised the experience was and how exceptional the level of communication was.

Ethan, the gentleman working with my husband and I, kept us regularly updated every week without fail; even when the update was 'There isn't an update'. He took the time to break down every step of the process, tutoring us on the steps and stages involved in building a house. This was essential for us being new to the property market. His transparency was astonishing and he made us feel confident.and comfortable going forward.

I cannot express how grateful we are to Ethan and the team at Balfour Homes. We are now a couple armed with information about the property market and building a house and cannot thank the team enough. I have already recommended Balfour to a close friend as I know that they will take good care and due diligence every step of the way.

My wife and I had the absolute pleasure of working with Ethan and the Balfour Homes team to secure our first home.
Never having been through the process before and hearing how stressful the process can be, we were very impressed with how smooth Ethan and the team made the process. Everything from working with the developer to find and negotiate on a block of land in our desired location to helping find a builder to suit our needs was seamless and stress free. If I had any questions or needed clarification, Ethan was available and responsive and nothing was ever an issue. If he didn't know the answer straightaway he would find out and comeback promptly.
I highly recommend Balfour Homes to anyone looking to purchase without all the stress. Definitely 5+ stars!
