Eco Home

Wondering how much does it cost to build a house in Perth? With the dynamic construction market, understanding the price of building a custom home is crucial. Inflation pressures continue to increase the costs of labour and building materials, although we note price pressures are easing slightly. This article will explore how much it costs to build a house in Perth and what you can expect in terms of typical costs associated with various types of homes. Expenses can vary based on factors such as design, materials, and location.

We will take a closer look at four different types of home designs: passive solar homes, passive house, sustainable homes, and custom-designed & built 7+ star energy-efficient homes. We will compare each of these against a standard 6-star energy-rated custom home, which is currently the minimum standard. Please note that from May 2025, all new homes will need to meet a minimum 7-star energy rating under the NatHERS (Nationwide House Energy Rating Scheme).
