Hear from some of our builders and learn why they joined Green Homes New Zealand.
After operating a highly successful construction business in the Central Western parts of NSW, Shaun Stuart recognised the need to diversify his business offering.
Having missed out on the Green Homes Opportunity years before, Shaun knew that the recent retirement of a Green builder was his chance to make a difference.
Parting with his personal brand of twenty years wasn't an easy decision for Shaun, however, he realised that without a new and differential offering, he would become outdated and his business would ultimately suffer.
Take a listen to how Shaun rationalised the decision and why he will never look back
Purchasing the Franchise in 2018, Toby and Alice were ready to transform their lives as they began to grow their family!
Within three months of beginning as a Green Home Builder, they had realised that without the brand, they would never have been able to receive as many leads as they had.
"The systems that were in place were second to none, and allowed me to run my business more effectively, profitably and sustainably." Toby said in his 2021 Business Strategy Consult.
Within the first term of their franchise agreement, Toby's business had expanded nearly 340% compared to prior to joining the Green Homes Builders' group.
Sitting down recently with Toby & Alice, they had a few specific words to say to builders considering joining the group....
"Do it!"
Moving half way across the world to undertake a new business opportunity would be daunting for any well seasoned business-person. But this Scottish pair saw the future of construction being sustainable, green solutions, and there was nothing being offered that quite hit the mark.
Joining Green Homes Builders and becoming experts in the field, allowed Jamie & Lisa to grow their business beyond their wildest dreams.
Reflecting on their first showhome, they said that within a week or two of opening it, they had 6 contracts signed stating, "the home buyers had been to all the other homes, however the moment they stepped into ours, they knew they couldn't go backwards."

After observing poor outcomes for homeowners as a Surveyor due to the design, building methods employed and general lack of understanding of the science behind a building’s performance, the Green Homes Brand really struck a chord with Wal, our newest franchisee.
He chose to join Green Homes because our ethos focuses on design and performance for better outcomes for future generations in terms of sustainable materials, energy efficiency and healthy living for homeowners as a result.
Wal is proud that Green Homes New Zealand is a member of the Green Building Council plus he is looking forward to incorporating Universal Design principles into some of his new builds via their design partner Lifemark ®. Lifemark ® accredited homes are safer and more accessible, especially for people with mobility issues, or for those who want to future proof their home well into retirement and beyond.
Wal Dix, the Managing Director and Independent Franchisee of Green Homes Queenstown.
“For us, joining Green Homes wasn’t just about building houses — it was about building a future we believed in.
Matt had spent over 20 years in the construction industry, progressing from qualified builder through to project and operations management. We knew we had the experience, but stepping into business ownership felt like a big leap. What gave us confidence was knowing we wouldn’t be doing it alone.
The systems, support network, established processes, and buying power behind Green Homes gave us the confidence to take Matt from managing projects for someone else to building a business of our own.
We also genuinely believe in what Green Homes stands for. The future of housing is changing, and homeowners are looking for healthier, smarter and more energy-efficient homes. Being able to align ourselves with a brand that shares those values felt like the right fit for both our business and our community.
The strength of the Green Homes network also allows us to deliver an exceptional product at a highly competitive price point — something that benefits both our clients and our business.
Looking back, joining Green Homes gave us the confidence to back ourselves, knowing we had the right systems and people behind us. For us, it’s been the opportunity to build not only better homes — but a better future”.

The Green Homes brand will provide constant reliable traction, value proposition, systems, marketing, and everything in between!

The majority of builders dream of having a sustainable business that is of reasonable scale, but don’t quite know how to get there. The average builder doesn’t realise that with the right guidance, systems, brand and support they can achieve scaling their business goals! Most builders will do the same thing every year, hoping for better results but not taking action. We call this the ‘valley of fire’, which is when a builder is stuck building 5 homes per year when they could be building 10 to 20! We believe that residential builders need consistency and a reliable opportunity with a mass amount of clientele in order to make substantial a profit, which is exactly what we offer to each and every one of our franchisees.
Builders are generally good at building, but few are experts in all aspects required in growing and or sustaining a successful business operation such as – business management, marketing, systems and management, design, product procurement and development and client management.
By joining Green Homes, you will have access to a turnkey solution which is an immediate business ready to go. Everything has been tried and tested and is successful!

There are extremely limited builders operating in the Green space globally and no franchise business models that we are made aware of.
