Olivia Cleary

I had a wonderful experience with New Victorian Homes as a first-time homebuyer. The process was organized and clearly explained, which made such a big milestone feel less overwhelming. The team was communicative, kind, accommodating, and reliable throughout the build, and they were efficient in answering my questions along the way. They did a beautiful job, and I'm really enjoying my cozy, thoughtfully designed new home. Highly recommend! Thank you, New Victorian Homes!

From our initial meeting with the New Victorian Homes team we knew we made the right decision. Every member of the team is so knowledgeable, professional and accommodating. The entire process was seamless from beginning to end, including making decisions on flooring, plumbing, lighting, etc. The company has made it as easy as possible for the customer. We couldn’t be happier with our beautiful new home! Thank you New Victorian Homes!

I didn’t want to give any stars. This is a horrible company to deal with. I had a difficult time last year and decided to relocate back to my hometown. I was purchasing a duplex with an original completion date of June which changed to September and so on….The completion date changed so many times that I’m not sure where it ended up, I paid a $25,000 deposit, a decision based on emotion, anxiety and stress. I then I decided to go back to the west Coast and asked if I could get my deposit returned to me. The only work that had been done was preliminary drawings ( by that I mean sketch). I offered to pay for the time that was spent on these drawings etc but was told they would not return my hard earned money (that the deposit was non-refundable). Until now, I have never had the misfortune of dealing with such an unethical company in my entire life and I hope to never deal with a company like this again! So Buyer Beware

When we decided to build our new home with New Victorian Homes it was clear from the start that they wanted the best for us. From choosing one of their signature designs to our final walkthrough we were heavily involved in every step. Throughout our build we were given frequent updates and reminders to keep us on track. We are so in love with our new home and we have made great connections with our New Vic team. We are also proud to put the first Ferryland design into motion; we love the functionality and luxury that this home brings. Shout out to Lauren, Danielle, Allan, Ian, Jim, and all the members of our build team. You guys are the best of the best!! - Sam and Jamie

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do New Victorian Homes’ home builds take?

Spec homes may be ready to occupy in as little as 30 days or take up to six months, depending on construction stage. Pre-sale homes are typically completed within eight months of breaking ground, while bespoke homes are typically completed within 12 months of the initial consultation, depending on planning and project scale.

How are deposits and final payments handled?

The company says deposit options are flexible and final payment is due on closing day. Financing options may vary for bespoke homes or builds outside its locations.

What warranty coverage applies to a New Victorian Homes build?

New Victorian Homes says its builder coverage repairs defects in materials and labour it supplied during the first year after possession; after that, Atlantic Home Warranty provides two years of electrical and plumbing distribution coverage and 10 years of major-structural-defect coverage. Condominium coverage is limited to five years, and terms may vary by home-completion year.

Can New Victorian Homes build on customer-owned land?

For customer-owned land or an alternative location, the team schedules an on-site visit to assess whether the lot is suitable for the chosen plan.
