You already know how to build. A David Reid Homes franchise gives you the brand, the plans, the systems and the buying power to win better projects, lift your margins, and run a custom-home business that doesn't depend on you holding every piece together.
The full overview of the opportunity, the model and the support, in your inbox today.
More volume doesn't equal a better business.
The volume builders chase numbers. Our franchisees don't. Every David Reid home is a signature piece, designed for its site, crafted for its owners, and remembered long after the trucks leave. That standard is a better business, and a better life.
Higher-value, custom homes, not race-to-the-bottom volume.
Unique, architectural work you'll put your name to.
A business that runs on systems, not on you alone.
The builders who thrive with us tend to share a profile.
You have an eye for detail and a hunger for custom, architectural work, and you want more creative control than volume building allows.
Inconsistent leads, no systems to manage several builds at once, too much riding on you alone. The exact constraints our model removes.
An accomplished builder from overseas or interstate who wants to establish quickly, with proven systems and a recognised brand.
You hold a current building licence (or have a business partner who does).
Leads, builds, plans and compliance, all in one purpose-built app. It's the backbone that lets you take on more work without losing control of any of it.
They share what works, mentor newcomers and pull in the same direction. The independence of your own business, with the backing of people who want you to succeed.
A premium national brand, a managed digital marketing system, a conversion-focused website and professionally produced sales collateral.
300+ standard and luxury working drawings, construction details and inclusions, plus the online plan library.
The DRH platform keeps leads, builds, plans and compliance in one place, plus approved estimating and construction management.
A full sales process and manual, letters and forms, colour & specification selection, and client reporting.
Intensive onboarding over 2.5 days, structured induction, ongoing mentoring and the annual network conference.
National supplier agreements and trade pricing negotiated across the network, on materials and the premium finishes your clients specify.
You operate at the high end with a royalty that sits well below what you'd expect for a franchise of this calibre, and it's capped. The royalty applies up to a build value of $2.2 million; on any build worth more than that, you pay nothing on the value above the cap.
In practice the cap sits comfortably above most builds, so for the bulk of your work the royalty is simply what you'd expect. It's on the occasional high-end home past $2.2M where the cap really pays: your largest projects reward you the most.
The exact royalty, the franchise fee and the working capital you'll need are set out in the information pack and discussed with you directly.
