meet your builder broker
Who are we?
Let us introduce ourselves. We’re a national building broker that specialises in helping first and second home builders navigate the building process and achieve their dream homes.
While building your first home should be an exciting and enjoyable process, sadly this isn’t the reality for most people. Without someone to guide you, you might find yourself drowning in months of stressful and confusing phone calls filled with empty promises, piles of display brochures and promises that you can build the same house you’re in with just a “few” tweaks, and a bank account constantly screaming like that stock motor with 30psi shoved into it.
Our job is to prevent that scenario from happening.
We’ll help you to navigate the chaos, decipher the industry jargon, and avoid common mistakes so that you’re popping champagne instead of a tub of Ben & Jerry’s.
So, how do we do that? Let us break it down for you.
What is a building broker?
Building a home is an extensive, pricey, and often complicated process. Many first-time builders, unaware of the many procedures, paperwork, and other steps, find the process overwhelming.
Enter Mr Enthusiast
To clarify, we’re a building broker, not a builder.
Building brokers help people navigate the building process, providing the information and tools needed to achieve their dream homes. Very similar to what finance brokers are and how they help navigate the best deal with all the banks and always focus on your best interests at heart, we do the same but for the entire build component.
Importantly, we don’t report to banks, builders, mortgage brokers, or any other third parties. We’re completely independent and are committed solely to you. As your biggest advocate, we’ll always be transparent and realistic when discussing your options, keeping in mind your budget, wants schedule, and the nature of your block. We have a strict ‘no bullshit’ approach; and as we often say, we’re not here to fuck spiders. We’ll never compromise your wellbeing to get something over the line, so if you’re not happy, we’re not happy. Lastly, we’re not just here for the project; we’re investing in the relationship and hope to stay connected long after your build is complete.
Of course, it’s possible to build your house without engaging a building broker. However, there’s no guarantee that your home will meet your expectations, be built to high standards, that the builder will stay on schedule, or that any complications will be handled smoothly. Everyone’s heard the horror stories – discreet clauses that cost people thousands, missed deadlines that lead to unbearable delays, and arguments with builders only prioritising their own interests.
A building broker gives you the best chance of being truly happy with your home and the journey you went through to achieve it.

Building a Home is Big - We Make It Simple
Let’s face it - building a home is daunting, and it costs a shit ton of money. That’s why we’re here to simplify the process with our years of experience, giving you the honest truth while ensuring you can be confident that Mr Enthusiast always has your back. Like we always say, we’re in it for the whole journey - the good and the bad.
More Than Just Finding You a Builder
Building a home comes with a lot of decisions, a lot of moving parts and, unfortunately, a lot of opportunities to get it wrong.
That’s where we come in.
We’re here to help you make sense of the whole journey, from working out what and where you want to build, through to finding the right builder, getting the design right and supporting you throughout construction.
When you build with Mr Enthusiast, you get:
Because our job isn’t simply to help you choose a builder.
It’s to help you build smarter, feel supported and actually enjoy the experience of building your home.
our specialty?
Garages
Because sometimes a standard double garage just isn’t going to cut it.
Garages have always been a big part of the Mr Enthusiast story. We love our cars, we love our toys, and we understand that for some people, the garage is just as important as the kitchen.
Whether you need room for three, four or more cars, extra height for a hoist, space for the bikes or boat, a workshop area, additional storage, or simply enough room to comfortably open your car doors without performing some sort of sideways shuffle, we can help.
We’ll work with you and your builder to customise the garage design around what you actually need, considering things like size, access, ceiling heights, door widths, storage and how the space will be used now and into the future.
And you definitely don’t need to be a die-hard car enthusiast to want a good garage.
For tradies, growing families, adventurers, hobbyists or anyone who wants more practical space, getting the garage right from the beginning can make a huge difference to how your home works.
Your home should fit your lifestyle. Your garage should too.
start with a design
then make it yours
Four bedrooms, two bathrooms and a double garage? Easy.
But where’s the fun in stopping there?
We believe your home should actually work for you. Your lifestyle, your family, your hobbies, your toys and even the slightly unusual ideas you’ve been wondering whether you’re allowed to ask for.
Spoiler: you can ask us. We’ve probably heard worse.
We’ll help you find a design you love and work with you and the builder to customise it around what you actually want.
Over the years, that’s included:
These are just a few of the ideas we’ve helped bring to life.
So have a look through some of our popular designs, steal a few ideas, change a few things and make it completely your own.
Normal, unusual or somewhere in between. If it matters to you, let’s find a way to make it work.
