Why the 12 month price hold can give you extra peace of mind.

Building a new home is one of the most exciting milestones in life, but it can also come with a level of uncertainty, especially when it comes to pricing. With construction costs and market conditions constantly changing, knowing exactly what you’ll pay is more important now than ever before.

That’s where Weeks Homes’ 12-month price hold comes in, designed to give you certainty, confidence, and control from the moment you start your new home build journey.

What is a price hold in building?

A price hold means your home’s contract price is secured for a set period, in this case, 12 months. The hold commences from deposit paid and is held for 12 months from that date. What this means is there are no unexpected price increases due to rising material costs, labour shortages, or market fluctuations during this time.

For homebuyers, especially first home buyers or those building on a budget, this level of certainty makes all the difference.

Why a 12-month price hold matters

Protection against rising building costs: The construction industry can be unpredictable, with material and labour costs shifting frequently. A long-term price hold protects you from these increases, so your outlined price stays exactly that.

Budget with confidence: One of the most searched concerns for homebuyers is: “How do I avoid hidden building costs?” With a fixed price home contract, you can plan your finances with confidence – no surprises, no last-minute stress.

More time, less pressure: Delays can happen, whether it’s land registration, approvals or finance. A 12-month price hold gives you breathing room, ensuring your price remains secure even if timelines shift.

Peace of mind in a changing market: Search trends show buyers are increasingly looking for “price certainty when building a home”. A price hold removes the guesswork, so you can focus on what matters most – building your dream home.

Weeks Homes’ commitment to transparency

At Weeks we are committed to transparency in all stages of the building process. We don’t expect you to sign a contract until we are certain that we have done all that we can to investigate, anticipate & capture the costs that will go towards achieving your dream home.

Our pricing process is unique, utilising experts in estimating and taking the time to ensure we are transparent and thorough. It is this level of confidence that allows us to provide even more peace of mind, by holding our prices for 12 months!

It’s not just about holding a price – it’s about giving you the confidence to start your build journey knowing exactly where you stand.
