What does Landmark Homes build, and where?

Landmark Homes builds in 9 of the 10 New Zealand regions this directory covers, and offers 3 build types: house and land, design and build, build on your section. In one line: franchise group builder founded in Tauranga in 1977, design-led, with the Master Build 10-Year Guarantee in its build timeline.

Founded in Tauranga in 1977 by Paul and Debbie Clarke, according to its own story page, and now run as a franchise network with 17 franchises around the country and a national office still in Tauranga. It leans on design more than most group builders: it calls itself New Zealand's premium new home builder and sells customisable Ready to Build plans, full custom design-and-build, and house-and-land packages where a section has been matched with a design. Its franchise list runs from Northland through four Auckland areas, Coromandel, Waikato, Bay of Plenty, Rotorua, Taupō, Gisborne, Taranaki, Hawke's Bay, Manawatū, Wellington and Canterbury to Central Otago. Its own build timeline lists a 10-Year Master Build Guarantee as a step after handover, with optional aftercare on top. Because each franchise is locally owned, ask which franchise will hold your contract and confirm the guarantee is on it.
