One of the fears people feel when thinking about building is the fear of making the big decisions. But the big decisions are really just lots of smaller decisions spinning around in our mind. With all this brain scramble going on it’s easy to let the fear of making the wrong decisions stop us from making any decisions at all and bail on the idea of building altogether. But that will only see you miss out on a whole bunch of awesome stuff so stick around.

So here you can take comfort that only three things really matter when you’re deciding what you really need in your home. Those 3 things are you needs, your wants and your desires. We’ve created a builders brief template and coming home checklist that make shaping your priorities super simple. And as for that budget you nailed in the previous step, we’re now going to see just how far that will take us.

Which brings me to sharing what I love most about building. Regardless of whether your budget is big or small building lets you direct your spending on the areas of your home that will bring you the most happiness. Now you can’t get better value that?

Plus, this step helps you avoid yet another big boo boo of building. Completing this step will ensure that the quotes you get back from builders later in the process are all comparing apples with apples.
