We are looking at a house and land package with Urban Homes (Waikato) having seen their show homes, but am seeking any feedback on their Hamilton operations; contracts; customer service, post construction engagement/maintenance etc etc.

Hi Abigale,
I personally have not used Urban at all but I have noticed a house they are currently building on my mum and dads road which is Horahora Rd in Putaruru (or Tirau depending on which end of the Rd you’re on) and it looks about 50% finished but if I can remember correctly, it seems to have been plodding along for a while now.
Might I suggest you go for a leisurely drive this weekend and perhaps check it out? You can’t miss it as it’s well signposted as being a Urban Homes construction and it is at the end of Horahora Rd that is closest to Cambridge or the Tauranga turn off (not the end that takes you to Arapuni)
Good luck, I hope I’ve helped a little?

cheers, thanks for that, certainly appreciate your response.
We are confident that they will build a quality home from what we have seen, my concern is that with all their builds going on that the service delivery (project management) and dealing with post-construction issues might not be up to standard…
