| 85 Landmark Homes Taupo and Hawke’s Bay Landmark Homes Taupo and Hawke’s Bay prides itself on ‘delivering a high-end, top-quality building experience,” says operations manager Steven Painter. BUILDING every year has given them the opportunity to showcase their skills and workmanship gives them a clear idea of current costs. “We buy a section, design the home, start building it, then look to sell it to an investor, it’s our number one marketing tool, hands down. “Plus, it’s on point for the fittings and fixtures we’re using for the next year,” says Steven. The new owner leases it back to them for a year as part of the agreement and reaps the benefit of any capital gains made before they take possession. The plans for their first Hawke’s Bay Showhome have already been submitted to council with their Taupo Showhome under construction and now sold, so Steven’s on the lookout for a section to get the next one started in November to be ready for Christmas 2023. Landmark Homes franchises are already monitored according to a number of criteria but Steven and Gerry are also aware of the need to back up their claims locally around the quality of their builds. “It’s easy for us to say we do a good job, but we challenge ourselves by entering the annual Registered Master Builder House of The Year Awards, and we’ve won 14 awards in the last eight years,” says Steven. Ask him what the future holds for Landmark Homes Taupo and Hawke’s Bay and Steven is clear that bigger doesn’t necessarily mean better. For now, they are happy to focus on efficiency, customer service and having a good team culture, and they wouldn’t be averse to adding 2023 to their Franchisee of the Year Awards!
