We recently sat down with Mitch, TR Homes Senior Sales Consultant, to talk about the industry and advice for building in regional WA.
How long have you been a Sales Consultant with TR Homes?
Seven amazing years! Before I was in sales, I worked in the TR Homes construction yard which equipped me with an expert understanding of modular building.
What are the biggest misconceptions about modular homes that you frequently come across?
People still assume a modular home is a cheap, poor quality build. This is just not true. The quality of our homes rivals any brick and tile build. Our clients live in rural country WA which means that the availability of trades and the supply of materials are limited. We build homes in our Maddington yard and deliver throughout WA.
What advice do you give people beginning to look for a new home?
It’s a good idea to have your land already purchased! This helps us to provide an accurate quote for site works and it also informs which designs would best suit your block.
Definitely try and obtain finance pre-approval so that we can present the best home design for your budget. If budget is an issue, I suggest you consider which features could be added at a later date. For example – verandahs can have a larger price tag so consider putting these on further down the track. You want to make sure you concentrate on the features you can’t change down the line like high ceilings. Get those squared away up front.
What is your favourite TR Homes design?
The Pilbara. It’s a real entertainer’s house. The open plan living/dining area feels really spacious and is great for socialising – and if you want a bit of quiet time, it has a separate theatre room that can be closed off.
