For a typical single-storey home in Perth, expect the build to take 12 to 18 months from contract signing to handover. The pre-construction phase—which includes design, approvals, and finance—takes about 4 to 8 months, while the construction phase is another 6 to 10 months. Two-storey homes often require additional time due to their complexity.
