Where Sherridon Homes Builds

Sherridon builds in Melbourne’s north, west and south-east, Geelong and the Bellarine, Ballarat, Bendigo, Shepparton and Echuca, Gippsland and Bairnsdale.

 

Sherridon Homes House and Land Packages and Guarantees

Sherridon sells its Essence, New Living, Simplicity, Homestead and Promenade ranges, and its designs page showed 94 designs when we checked. Its designs and house and land pages didn’t show prices, so ask for a written quote.

Its website says land and build are on separate contracts, with the land bought from the developer. We didn’t find dual occupancy or dual key products.

Sherridon Homes promotes these guarantees, all with conditions:

  • Price lock: an 18-month price lock from the date the initial deposit is paid, which requires construction to start within 18 months. If conditions aren’t met, Sherridon may withdraw it and re-price
  • Structural: a lifetime structural warranty for original owners of Victorian homes who paid a deposit after 11 April 2025. It “cannot be transferred or passed on to any person including any subsequent owners”

We didn’t find a build-time guarantee. Its terms say its on-time completion rate and average build times are indicative only.

 

How Sherridon Homes Packages Are Sold

Sherridon sells directly. Its terms say it is “not in any way responsible for the provision of finance or credit assistance”, although the business name Sherridon Finance is registered to the same company. We found no information on its website about third-party marketers. Ask what Sherridon Finance is and whether anyone is paid a referral fee on your loan.

What it means for you: when a package is sold through a marketer or investment group, that seller is commonly paid a commission by the builder or developer. That commission is part of the package price, whether or not it’s shown on the contract. Builder commissions can run into tens of thousands of dollars. Here’s how hidden commissions in house and land packages work.
