42 | CONTRACTING Prestige Building Removals / Advantage Designer Homes T T Kelly Deeks Affordable homes delivered to order Advantage Designer Homes is a transportable housing company which manufactures and relocates one to six-bedroom homes in one piece moves. “We have everything we need in-house to get the job done, with no middle men required. Our highly skilled team and state of the art equipment ensure that your valuable building is transported in a professional manner.” Waikato property developer Jason Barnes is providing an eclectic range of affordable homes to locations across the upper to mid North Island, with his companies Prestige Building Removals and Advantage Designer Homes setting up families in old or new homes for a fraction of the cost of traditional housing. Jason says the current economic climate is pricing Kiwi families out of the housing market. “The past 18 months have been challenging,” he says. “We’ve got another recession and it has hurt a lot of people, especially people who bought houses in peak times with low interest rates. I believe we’ve hit rock bottom and we’re on our way out, but we have got to concentrate on building economical homes.” Difficulties in accessing lending from banks are now alleviated in the pre-built sector with Westpac recently becoming the first New Zealand bank to offer a dedicated mortgage product to help get Kiwis into prefabricated homes. Advantage Designer Homes has already seen its sales starting to take off as this mortgage product gains momentum in the marketplace. Whether a new home from Advantage Designer Homes or a pre-loved home from Prestige Building Removals, Kiwi families can get into warm, healthy, liveable homes without the burden of huge debt. With a highly skilled team and state of the art equipment, Prestige Building Removals has a wide range of pre-loved homes ready for immediate delivery. All types of family homes are available to suit the tastes and requirements of Kiwi families both large and small, from bungalows to villas, minor dwellings to granny flats, and architecturally designed homes to state houses, and the stock changes rapidly. These well-built homes with their high quality materials and features are given a second chance and a new lease of life and can be on site within three days of being sold. Meanwhile, Advantage Designer Homes is a transportable housing company which manufactures and relocates one to six-bedroom homes in one piece moves. Jason says that the efficiencies of off-site construction are many and varied and they all result in substantial cost, time, and stress savings over on-site builds. With Advantage Designer Homes built in volume at the purpose-designed yard in Horotiu, production is streamlined, subcontractors are responsive, quality is controlled from start to finish, and bulk buying power keeps the cost of materials down. Advantage Designer Homes’ expert team has more than 30 years of experience at providing an enjoyable building experience and producing high-quality homes tailored to individual budgets and timeframes. Advantage Designer Homes are of course delivered to site by Prestige Building Removals and with more than 30 years of building removal experience, the company assures the best possible transportation with expert advice and a wrap around service to ensure clients are well supported from consents approved to insurance in place. “We have everything we need in-house to get the job done, with no middle men required. “Our highly skilled team and state of the art equipment ensure that your valuable building is transported in a professional manner.” WHATEVER YOU NEED IN DRAINAGE, WE'VE GOT THE SYSTEM FOR YOU.
