Building wasn’t always the obvious choice. They’d heard the horror stories. No one in their immediate circles had done it before. And most homes they saw didn’t reflect the lifestyle they wanted: a couple with no kids (yet), who love entertaining, and aren’t afraid to get their hands dirty on the weekends.

But the more they looked into it, the more they realised building offered flexibility. Control. And a real shot at creating a space that fit their lives—not someone else’s.

They got serious. Jarod started researching builders. Ash mapped out priorities. Together, they landed on a plan.

That’s when they came across Boss Building Brokers.

It started with a quick Google search. Jarod typed in “building consultants Perth” and found a name that stood out—Boss Building Brokers. The word Boss wasn’t just a coincidence—it was an inside joke between them, and it felt like a sign. They booked a call that same day.

Their biggest challenge? Finance.

They were told “no” more than once.

But they didn’t stop there.

They asked questions. Got second opinions. Took control of their numbers. And proved everyone wrong.

Ash and Jarod were strategic about everything. From day one, they decided they’d be on top of it.
They read every document. Flagged concerns early. Made decisions quickly. And worked to make sure no one was waiting on them.

"If we’re ready, the builder will be ready too. We lead, they follow."

And that approach worked.
Within four months, they went from first meeting to slab down.

Their build hasn’t just started—it’s flying.

What They’d Tell Other First-Time Builders:

“Start before you think you’re ready.”

They nearly waited until they had the full deposit in savings. But starting earlier meant they could move through the pre-construction phase while saving—putting them months ahead.

“Don’t settle for someone who doesn’t listen.”

They spoke to sales reps, builders, and banks who didn’t take them seriously. And it nearly put them off the whole process.

What changed? Being able to talk to someone who got it—someone who treated them with respect, and helped them feel like they belonged in the building process.

“Ask every question—even the ones that sound dumb.”

That confidence came from owning the process, not pretending to know everything. They didn’t. But they were determined to learn.
