Find and Compare Local Builders

Finding the right builder has never been easier

At Builder Brokers, we help homeowners compare builders in their area so you can choose the right one with confidence.

When you approach a builder on your own, you’re restricted to their set range of designs and packages.

With Builder Brokers, you get something far more powerful: multiple quality builders competing for your project – while you enjoy personal, start-to-finish support from our team.

We connect you with vetted, trusted local builders and provide free, no-obligation quotes, helping you save time, money, and unnecessary stress.

And you’re never on your own. We guide you through every stage of your build.

For over 10 years, we’ve made finding the right builder simple, transparent, and cost-effective.

Builder Brokers have been nothing but world class to deal with. Universal buyers agents act for the purchaser in the property transaction so we quite often come across people wanting to build or renovate. Knowing I can refer these clients onto the Builder Broker team has been fantastic. Highly recommended !!!!
Hayley
Buyers Agent
We highly recommend Builder Brokers in Brisbane. The new home builder that we had originally contracted to build our home went belly up. But Michael Shekell from Builder Brokers Brisbane went above and beyond to help us. Michael and the construction brokers team worked with us to find the right custom home builder so we could complete the build of our home. Thanks Michael and Builder Brokers 1800 1 BUILD - without you, I’m not sure where we’d be. Seriously, if you want the best and surest way to find the right custom home builder and the best custom home designers in Brisbane, you really can’t go past Builder Brokers.
