Our History

The NEX Building Group has grown from early beginnings in 1987 as a family-owned new home building business based in the Hunter region of NSW, to become one of Australia’s most well-known and respected new project home, multi-residential and investment property building companies. 

Originally founded under McDonald Jones Homes, our continued focus on setting the benchmark in residential construction in Australia and providing our customers with a unique and exceptional building journey, has led to the evolution of our company and the development and establishment of new businesses within the NEX Building Group

In 2017, a strategic alliance was formed with Japan's Asahi Kasei Homes, and in 2021 Asahi Kasei Homes increased its shareholding, and today this is 80%. 

The NEX Building Group benefits from experienced leaders and a dedicated team of over 1,300 employees. Through our people's commitment, professionalism, knowledge, guidance and quality service, the Group is well-positioned to respond and overcome the challenges from the market and build on the solid foundations of the business

“We have the best job in the world, building new homes for Australian families.” - Andrew Helmers
