At Buildi, we specialise in those details, leveraging our expertise in finance, contracts, and the technical aspects of construction to guide you every step of the way.
We help you navigate decisions and negotiations, ensuring you avoid costly mistakes and unnecessary delays throughout your building journey.
Before you commit, we assess your land and project viability, examining zoning, site conditions, costs, and potential risks. This early insight helps you make informed decisions and lays a strong foundation for your build.
We match you with a curated shortlist of vetted builders tailored to your project. We manage the tender process, compare quotes, and assist with contract negotiations to secure the best value and quality.

We can review them, attend virtual builder meetings, and discuss contract terms on your behalf to ensure you’re getting the best deal.

When Nelvin and Chantelle undertook their first home build, they were full of excitement and optimism. Nelvin had spent his teens and twenties helping his father to renovate and flip houses, so he thought he knew what to expect. And with Nelvin’s career in finance and Chantelle’s in business management, they felt confident on the numbers.
But nothing prepared this Brisbane couple for the maze of conflicting quotes and hidden costs they encountered while trying to build their own dream home.
As they tried to find the right suppliers, they were baffled by wildly different quotes, which sometimes varied by tens of thousands of dollars for no apparent reason. Even after scrutinizing over the details, they couldn’t tell if they’d be sacrificing quality for a lower price, or simply overpaying for peace of mind.
Once they finally chose a builder, they thought the hardest part was behind them. Instead, they found themselves constantly clarifying their requirements, discovering that crucial items weren’t included in the original quote, and watching their budget spiral out of control.
The stress took its toll, especially as they juggled demanding jobs and small children. The need for a service like Buildi was clear, but at the time there was no one to help customers navigate the process of choosing a trustworthy builder and making sure they did their job properly.
Nelvin’s experience working in the banking and finance industry had shown him how common it was for the building process to be completely overwhelming for everyday Australians. He regularly saw customers struggle with misleading display homes, vague contracts, and unexpected cost-patterns that echoed his own frustrating experience.
It was clear the construction industry lacked the customer-centric approach that mortgage brokers had brought to banking. There was a real need for an independent advocate – someone to help people make sense of the process, hold builders accountable, and keep projects on track.
Buildi was created to put the power back into the hands of homeowners, arming them with the right information, vetted builder options, advocacy, and expert guidance at every stage.
Buildi provides rigorous due diligence, transparent builder brokering, and ongoing advocacy so that clients can build with confidence, avoiding the pitfalls Nelvin and Chantelle know too well.
This is much more than a business for this couple.
Whether you’re just starting your journey or already knee-deep in quotes, we’re here to help you make the right moves — not just the easy ones.
