Keith Hay Homes BUILDING Evolving housing needs and market challenges has seen Keith Hay Homes well positioned to continue to offer Kiwis the homes they need. With a rich history spanning over 85 years, the family-owned company has always innovated to meet the changing demands of Kiwi homeowners. “We’ve recognised that one size doesn’t fit all in today’s housing market,” explains Mark Squire, Keith Hay Homes’ head of sales and marketing. “That’s why we’ve developed a range of options to cater to different needs, budgets, and timelines.” At the forefront of Keith Hay Homes’ innovative approach are its prebuilt houses. These homes are constructed in a controlled environment, offering numerous advantages over traditional on-site builds. “Because our prebuilt homes allow for a more controlled build process, this results in less wastage and increased efficiency. This method not only ensures consistent quality but also significantly reduces build times,” says Mark. One of the unique selling points of these prebuilt homes is their immediate availability. “We always hold stock and can offer a fixed price, delivering around New Zealand. This approach provides a solution for those seeking rapid housing options, whether due to urgent relocation needs or simply a desire to move into a new home quickly.” For those looking for a middle ground between prebuilt and fully custom homes, Keith Hay Homes offers pre-consented houses. This option provides the benefits of a pre-approved design, while still allowing for some customisation, streamlining the often lengthy consent process. Keith Hay Homes also offers traditional bespoke builds. “We understand that some homeowners have specific visions for their dream homes,” Mark says. “Our bespoke build option allows us to work closely with clients to bring their unique ideas to life.” Keith Hay Homes has ventured into larger-scale developments, offering houseand- land packages in various markets. From urban residences to rural retreats, and from standalone homes to townhouses, the company has broadened its scope to meet diverse market demands. Two of its current developments include the Walton Street Development in Bulls, Rangitikei, offering 21 lots in a community-focused setting, while the Green Hills Development in Ranui, West Auckland, provides 35 lots targeted at first-time homebuyers in an up-andcoming suburb. “Whether it’s a prebuilt home or a bespoke design, we use quality products from reputable providers. Our customers can expect the same high standard of workmanship they see in our show homes,” Mark says. The company’s expansion into different markets hasn’t come at the cost of their core values. Keith Hay Homes remains proudly New Zealand owned and operated, supporting local communities and using locally sourced products. “We’re New Zealanders too,” Mark says, “and we understand the unique needs and aspirations of Kiwi homeowners.” This local focus extends to its supply chain, with the company owning Roskill Timber and Hardware, which supplies all the timber framing. This vertical integration not only ensures quality control, but also creates cost savings that can be passed on to customers, says Mark. Keith Hay Homes also offers comprehensive services to support homeowners throughout their journey. From initial feasibility assessments, to dealing with council requirements and project management, the company provides end-toend solutions. “We’re experts, so our customers don’t need to be,” says Mark. “Our team works with each client to address all important considerations, making the process as stress-free as possible. “Our business is built on values of honesty, integrity, trustworthiness, and innovation. These principles, combined with our diverse range of housing solutions, position us to meet the needs of New Zealanders for generations to come.” WE CAN BUILD YOUR HOME OR HELP YOU BUILD YOUR INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO 9JGVJGT KVoU [QWT HCOKN[ JQOG ƂTUV KPXGUVOGPV OKPQT FYGNNKPI QT UWDFKXKUKQP YG ECP JGNR [QW 1WT GZRGTKGPEGF VGCO YKNN YQTM YKVJ [QW VQ OCMG UWTG [QW OCMG VJG TKIJV EJQKEGU HQT [QWT JQOG QT VQ OCZKOKUG [QWT RTQƂVU 9G QHHGT C ƂZGF RTKEG EQPVTCEV CPF IWCTCPVGG EQORNGVKQP 9G ECP OCPCIG VJG YJQNG RTQLGEV HQT [QW 5GNGEV HTQO QPG QH QWT RTG DWKNV JQOGU CXCKNCDNG VQ GPUWTG HCUVGT RTQLGEV EQORNGVKQP %CNN WU VQFC[ VQ ƂPF QWV OQTG 0800 KEITH HAY www.keithhayhomes.co.nz
