For those of you about to embark on your first building project homestar is a rating system for your new or existing home much like the energy star indicator on appliances.The new release of v3 brings some new evaluation tools and efficiencies in creating homestar ratings. The process is starting to gain traction in Christchurch and Auckland so it is a matter of time before Wellington consumers demand homestar ratings on homes. It is more rewarding and easier to have a rating done at the design stage rather than a retrospective assessment done which reduces the amount of points available.Talk to Peter, Jon, Alex, Denise or Hamish about the benefits of getting a homestar rating for your new home.
