The questions builders ask us.

We're selective, and that's deliberate. Our franchisees are capable builders already - craftspeople with an eye for detail and a hunger for custom, architectural work - whose growth has hit a ceiling, or accomplished builders relocating from interstate or overseas who want to establish quickly in a new market. If you're early in your building career, we're probably not the right fit yet. Is this you?

Yes - you hold, or have a business partner who holds, a current building licence. We'll confirm the details for your state on the qualifying call.

Running - or having run - a building business is a strong advantage, and most of our franchisees come in with one. What matters is that you're ready to operate as an owner: the systems, mentoring and training cover the rest.

Some of our strongest franchisees arrived exactly that way. You bring the craft and the ambition; a recognised brand, proven systems and a ready network help you establish in a new market far faster than starting alone.

Our royalty sits well below what you'd expect for a franchise of this calibre - and it's capped. It applies up to a build value of $2.2 million; on bigger builds you pay no royalty on the value above that, so the better you build, the more you keep. The exact rate, the franchise fee and the working capital you'll need are set out in the information pack and walked through with you directly. The Opportunity

Each franchisee operates their own territory - and franchisees never compete against each other. Territory availability changes as the network grows, so tell us your region when you enquire and we'll give you the current picture.

Yes. You keep full flexibility over your suppliers and subbies, backed by the buying power and relationships of a national network when you want them.

Custom and luxury homes - a deliberately select number, each designed for its site and crafted for its owners. More volume doesn't equal a better business; better homes do. Real Stories

A complete operating system: brand, managed marketing and premium sales collateral, the DRH platform, estimating software, the design and plan library, national supplier agreements and buying power, sales processes, construction and compliance systems, HR templates, and the annual network conference - plus a head-office team you can reach and a dedicated franchise growth mentor who's lived the journey himself. The Team

A structured induction and intensive onboarding over two and a half days at our Brisbane head office, then ongoing training and mentoring for as long as you're in the network.

Our purpose-built management system - leads and clients, build tracking stage by stage, compliance per build, a client progress portal, and connections to leading job-management and accounting tools. One place, every build. The DRH Edge

Your build sits under a premium national brand, with a managed digital marketing system and a kit of professionally produced sales collateral - brochures, proposals and selection guides - so you present as the high-end builder you are and convert more of the right clients. You keep and grow your own local relationships; we make sure you look the part and have the tools to win the work. The DRH Edge

A short qualifying call about your goals, licence and territory → a one-day overview meeting at head office in Capalaba, Brisbane → documents reviewed with your own advisors, in your own time → agreement → onboarding. Structured and unhurried; we encourage independent advice before you sign anything. The Opportunity
