As Australia strides towards its 2050 net zero emissions target, various aspects of everyday life, including the construction industry, are adapting. Whether you're constructing a new home from the ground up or renovating an existing one, changes are underway.

As Australia’s leading home builder, we have an essential role to play in increasing women’s access to the industry and facilitating the flow on effect their inclusion on our sites has in improving whole-of-workplace culture. That’s why our Queensland office has teamed up with the Housing Industry Association (HIA) to forge a fantastic new opportunity empowering ten young women based in the Sunshine State, by connecting them to a 12-week pre-apprenticeship program with our trusted contractors.

Rather than settling for an existing property in Drouin, Kamran and his wife Aneela were impressed by the Metricon display homes in both Drouin and Traralgon. They were convinced that building a brand-new home was the best choice after seeing the quality and options available.

When folks were cooped up in their city pads during lockdowns, many longed for a tree change. For an abundance of fresh air and plenty of room to breathe. Loads of Australians followed through on that vision as soon as they could. There’s never been a more exciting time to join them in what we call the acreage living dream.

Some of us have switched on to the idea of hustling up some much-needed holiday funds by popping our homes on Airbnb to get paying guests in while we’re away. In fact, many of our Metricon customers have gone further, dedicating an investment property to the hosting game.
