Hudson Homes understands the challenges and has devised their Help Me Get Started Program, a unique initiative which  partners first home buyers with trusted professionals to assist with finance, land and home design.

The holistic approach takes the stress out, enabling first home buyers to navigate the red tape and make the dream  become reality.

With a deposit as little as $5000, eligible first home buyers can to link with Hudson’s network of hand-picked financiers.

“They will look at your situation, and the various grants, options and avenues available to get the ball rolling,” a company spokesperson said.

“Our consultants then help with finding land, and selecting home designs.

“Our  inclusion packages are affordable, hard-wearing but still stylish and quality.

“Ultimately, you want your first home to be practical but also something to be proud of. Hudson gets that and works hard with you every step of the way to achieve it.”

Nehemia Kamanda was a first home buyer looking to get into the market, but unsure where to start.

“They assisted us from beginning to end, and the result was good, especially on the financial aspects,” Nehemia said.

“I was wondering, ‘Where am I going to get 10 per cent for deposit?’ Hudson Homes said they could help and they did. They took my initial $5000 and tailored my finance to suit my needs.”

Marcelli Firlej and his wife  got started with Hudson.

“My wife visited Kotara Shopping Centre  in 2015 and saw the Hudson stand advertising  ‘Build your house for $5000’,” Marcelli recalls.

“My wife said, ‘I have $5000, build my home for me.’  A consultant came out to where we were living at the time, we played ping pong and that’s how it started.

“I would recommend anyone having trouble getting started as a first home buyer to use Hudson Homes.”

Daniel Harrison built on the Central Coast  and was also full of praise.

“I don’t think we would have got in the market if we tried to do it ourselves,” he said. “Other builders wouldn’t work with us, Hudson did and that takes a huge stress off – the  way they manage the process and guide you through.”
