Thanks so much to the Jennian team, it’s been an amazing journey with a fantastic team (very patient, very kind & helpful).
We were lucky enough to catch a house and land package before the plans went into council and make a few changes that suited our lifestyle and future needs, which Lynesse patiently worked through with us at all hours of the day, (and night). We felt the team went out of their way for us right from the start and had a good understanding of what we needed to achieve in the way the house worked and making all that fit into our budget.
Nikki was a marvel at helping us through the interior décor decision-making process and took so much pressure off by just being able to guide us smoothly around options that would work… and they do! Loads of ‘glamour’ comments from people that come through, we actually hand them on to you Nikki – thanks again. Tarsha, Natasha, Kelly/Murray & Kirsty we owe you all a huge THANK YOU!
If you are considering a new build…. GO JENNIAN! You’ll love the journey too. You hear of people talking about how stressful their builds were… Not with Jennian. We could sit back and enjoy the process.
Richard & Sarah
Tarsha and her team have been fantastic in accommodating all of our needs and wants in building our very first dream home in NZ!!
I can’t speak highly enough of everyone in the team who has been professional and willing to go above and beyond to get us there.
I would certainly recommend anyone who is looking at building to give it a go with Jennian!!
Again we couldn’t have done better without Jennian !!
Nathan & Sheela
All we started with was a dream to build a quality 4-bedroom family home within our budget. From here the Jennian team helped us to find a section, create a floor plan that suited our family and guided us with all design aspects. Their professionalism, friendliness and nothing ever a problem attitude made the whole building process exciting and stress-free!
We are a family business and it was great to work with a like-minded family business too. Words will never be able to express our gratitude to Tarsha and the rest of the Jennian Manawatu team for bringing our dream to life.
Craig & Jaclyn Turner
Recently I had the great pleasure of buying a Jennian show home in Feilding. I can’t speak highly enough of Jennian and in particular Lynese and Tasha. Nothing was too much trouble for them and they were only too happy to accommodate my wishes. They have continued to keep in regular contact since I moved in to make sure everything is still OK. I have no hesitation in recommending Jennian and would be more than happy to build with them again.
Brenda Hawkins
We can’t thank the team enough at Jennian for helping us move into our brand new home! We were impressed right from the outset with their professionalism, friendliness and willingness to go the extra mile. The range of products used are of a very high quality which we liked. They made the whole process stress free and it all just ran to plan. It’s a real family business and we are so thankful for all they have done to help make this happen for our family.

When it comes to building there are many choices to make – one of the most important being who to choose to build your home. Jennian Homes ticked all the boxes for us. They are a company who truly practice their slogan, “Your personality, Our expertise”. From our first consultation to the finished product we can say with confidence that our home has been built by a quality building company.
Grant and Rachel Bell
Building with Jennian homes was a no brainer. Tim and I had seen previous homes that Jennian had built and liked their style and quality. After meeting with Tarsha we knew that Jennian could build us the house of our dreams and most importantly build within our budget.
Right from the start Tarsha and her team worked alongside us meticulously to help design and create a home that matched our brief – which was a 2 stories with 4 bedrooms and a study plus 2 living areas – all on a small back section. During the building process the team that were involved in the build exceeded our expectations and at the end we were presented with a home that fulfilled our families needs.
We would not hesitate to recommend Jennian to anyone wanting to build a home with an excellent standard of workmanship.
Tim & Anita Foss
To Lynese,
A message of thanks and appreciation for the highly professional and diligent manner as a New Home Consultant, you gave to us both during our recent purchase of our new Jennian Home. Jennian Homes must be very proud to have you working in their business and we are sure you will give a new dimension to their valued team.
Many thanks,
Lindsay & Lyn Moyes
From the start – from one on one consultations in my own home before and during the build right through to follow up visits after I moved in. Taking note of my requirements, Tarsha was able to modify one of her standard plans so that I was able to get everything I needed in my new home. Everything was taken care of for me and the house was completed on time and on budget.
Shirley Summers
Maureen and I had a dream… to build a house that would be our home for life. The Isles team involved us in all aspects of the building and our suggestions were always warmly received and given consideration. We felt that we were part of the team building our home. Thanks to the team for doing us so proud, you’re simply the best!
John and Maureen Doolan (Palmerston North)
We are really enjoying our new home.
We fully recommend building with Jennian Homes. They took all the hassle out of the build. From planning stage to decorating. Lynese had a clear understanding of what we wanted, Kelly was very professional in his approach and was easy to talk to as project manager and Nikki understood my taste and helped achieved the style I was wanting. Most of all, the team helped us to keep to budget while using products with guarantees to last an acceptable time.
With a 10-year master builders guarantee how could we go wrong.
We would be happy to recommend a Jennian home to future homebuilders.
Oslo & Jenny
Me and my wife are glad to share our gratitude to Jennian team.
We had a sketch of how our dream house should look like, that was introduced to more than three companies. Each proposed what is feasible and not what we wanted, not to mention the delay in responding. The Jennian homes team was the only company that responded promptly with our sketch put on a house plan!
We were amazed of the enormous support, dedication, attention to detail, and consultation provided by all members of Jennian homes’ team. We were overseas while we built our house so good communication was very important. You guys helped us throughout the whole process to build what is now HOME.
We appreciate all the efforts put in building our home.
Maher & Areej
From our first contact the friendly Jennian team at Palmerston North were fantastic. Their guidance, options and recommendations made the building of our dream home an enjoyable experience. Their expertise in helping us plan down to the last detail meant it was stress-free for us.
Thanks Jennian!
