Why FlexiHomes
Built for Wollongong buyers who want a fast, affordable housing solution without the delays and cost blow-outs of a traditional Illawarra build.
Built to Australian standards for permanent residential use, giving Wollongong buyers a genuinely certified home rather than a secondary structure with limited approval pathways.
Your home is delivered to your Wollongong property and professionally installed on site, so you are not left managing trades and logistics across the Illawarra on your own.
With Wollongong housing prices where they are, a complete certified home from $89,000 is not just appealing - it is a genuine solution for a lot of buyers in the region.
We work across the full Wollongong and Illawarra area, from the escarpment suburbs in the north down through Shellharbour and Kiama to Gerringong in the south.
We provide structural engineering and energy assessment documentation to support your application with Wollongong City Council and help you navigate the DA and building permit process.
Lead times of 8 to 12 weeks with installation in around two weeks is a lot faster than waiting through a traditional Wollongong construction process.
