MAC Builders reviews
20 Jude is very professional, easy to deal with, friendly, approachable, and knowledgeable about the
building industry.
Their prices are on the high side with basic provisions only. My lawyer had been contacting them many times for several months but they didn’t respond at all! Finally the building contract was terminated but they failed to calculate the final costs and took away all my deposit! Be careful dealing with them!
Re.your reply below, the sales agent Ray White Hong Kong had been contacted but they told me that they would not follow up our building contracts after sales. My lawyer had talked to Matt and sent several emails to MAC in the past months but didn’t receive any response!
Unlike with some other builders, I was only told about part of the upgrade items on their marketing materials and display homes, so that I think I understand what are upgrades and what are included - only to find it wrong later on. Only after the contract, they would tell you some items you were shown were in fact also upgrades, and if you wanna keep them you pay extra.
They told you the plans in contract is merely a marketing plan to give a rough idea. To get the actual drawings works and making sense, they make alterations with extra costs. The additional ain't costing a lot - only less than 1% of contracted building price so far, but they keep making such hassle that created more discontent than the cash charged.
They will tell you some necessary alterations are unpredictable, but it is a matter of professionalism. For example they tell you the need to alter windows (and extra cost) for overlooking and natural lighting issues is unexpected, but the neighbors haved already moved in, and a more professional builder would know about the needs before, not after the build contract is signed. They also shouldn't tell you there is enough space across the neighbors that such issue won't happen when you're buying the land.
They make delays in building, such is common for the industry now. My house was said expected to be delivered this Christmas if contract signed on Jan. It was signed on mid Feb, and now they estimate delivery on Aug next year. ATM, they are working on drawing plans and energy rating calculation.
If they managed to make things clear upfront and without additional costs as they promise, or if my BDM can fix them, I would give it a higher rating. He does try to offer help, but it is unfortunate only part of these are mitigated.
Our investment was built by MAC and the process was amazing from the moment we walked through the display home until we received our keys.
Extremely happy with my new home! Second time building and by far this has been the best
experience.
My friends choose the one cheaper but cannot be delivered at last. MAC’s price is
reasonable and can be finished on time. I am very happy about that.
Have my house built by MAC for 2 years with the fence not fully completed for 2 years. No solution, no updates, no catch up and full excuse.
We decided to build with MAC after visiting their display homes. The team's communication and timing was spot on throughout the building process. The experience was very enjoyable, and we love our new house.
They built a top-quality house at a very reasonable price and if I build another house MAC will be top of my list.
Been in my property for over 2 years now and the house is still in perfect situation. Any issues or faults I’ve had have been fixed promptly.
We have just had our beautiful home completed and couldn't be any happier with the outcome.
Great help and assistance from all MAC staff. Chanel in the display home has been excellent assistance with home plan and design
After my home cannot been built from other builder, I walked into MAC to find hope. So far, I am quite happy with the service that MAC provided.
The construction of my new home was managed exceptionally well. The communication was clear, regular, and very prompt.
Our home took 7 months from start to finish during the serious situation of the Covid 19 pandemic. MAC did a wonderful job and always professional to details.
Great to choose MAC as our first home builder. We have lived in home for about 2 years, everything is beyond my expectations.
I cannot believe that in the most challenging time for the building industry, MAC team built my house smoothly, efficiently, quickly and beyond my expectation.
MAC made our family life come true. The experience was amazing. Been to their display homes in Point Cook and Tarneit. The inclusions are better than average and what I see is what I got.
The quality of the build was excellent, and the building supervisor had an eye for detail, picking up all the imperfections and rectifying them immediately.
I was looking for the perfect investment opportunity and found MAC Builders, MAC offer us a best choice! Look forward to more investment builds in the future.
