This report aimed to develop and market test specific targeted advice aimed at the interaction point between volume home builders and home buyers with the intention to highlight higher-performance options for typical volume home builders’ dwelling specifications.
Although the project failed to engage a volume home builder, the framework generated a series of information materials than can be adapted to different needs and in different ways. These were adapted for use when the project pivoted to open conversations with community housing providers about exceeding the minimum and to supporting the standards being set by KiwiBuild.
