For many homeowners, the biggest concern isn’t skill.
It’s trust.
You may have received a quote that surprised you, a builder who went silent, or a timeline that kept shifting. You felt like no one was sharing the whole story. Vivo Homes was built to offer a clearer way forward. We help you make an informed decision before we talk about construction.
Because building should feel exciting, not overwhelming.
Sandra and Bill are the people behind Vivo Homes. Together, they combine two critical parts of the building journey: approvals expertise and construction accountability.
Sandra and Bill met while tackling the same problem. She worked on fixing approval issues that had been lingering for months. Meanwhile, he dealt with builds where the numbers no longer matched the promise. Many “bad builder” stories they discussed focused on more than just construction — they were about no one being accountable for the whole picture, from the first sketch to the final coat of paint. So they decided to provide that accountability together.
“We made a rule early on: if we can’t explain a cost or a delay in one honest conversation, we haven’t done our job yet. Everything else at Vivo Homes is built around keeping that rule”
Oversees construction quality, site accountability, and project delivery from the first trade on site to the final inspection.
You are not handed off from person to person.
You work with people who know your project.
Meet Sandra
At the start of her career, Sandra saw a client’s dream design approved for construction. But the council later rejected it due to a site issue that should have been caught early on. The rework cost them four months and a redesign fee they never budgeted for. Sandra decided she would never let a client discover a problem again too late.
“Now I run the numbers before the concept gets exciting, not after. It’s a tough talk on day one, but it’s the only way to align a client’s budget with their vision.”
18 years navigating Sydney’s planning and approvals system.
Her role is to help homeowners understand the pathway before they commit. That includes:
The flood-prone block
A client’s block was flood-prone. Most builders would have missed it until it became someone else’s problem. Sandra noticed it during the assessment, recommended a survey and flood advice from the council, and ensured the design matched the actual site conditions before moving forward.
Fewer surprises. Fewer delays. More clarity before you commit.
Meet Bill
Bill once arrived at a site during a project where the original builder had vanished, leaving subcontractors unsupervised for weeks. They signed off on work that should not have passed, and now a family faces the costs of fixing it. He decided then that “accountable” couldn’t mean putting your name on a contract — it had to mean being there. That experience shaped how Bill runs every site today.
“I’m on site enough that the crew expects me there. If something’s not right, I want to catch it before it’s poured, framed, or covered up.”
1,000+ residential projects delivered.
Kirri Cook – Photographer
“I’ve photographed several of their properties. In this industry, many builders take shortcuts. Vivo Homes is the opposite. Nothing but the highest quality is good enough, and it shows in the finishes on every build. When I build my home, I’ll be looking nowhere else but Vivo Homes”
Clarity Creates Confidence.
“Vivo Homes was different from our first conversation. Sandra made the approval pathway clear. Bill stayed involved during the build. We always knew what was happening, who to speak to and what came next”

Different goals. Same standard.
Clear communication. Clear pricing. Full accountability.
HONEST.
Most builders tell you what you want to hear before you sign, then tell you the truth after. You’ll hear the hard numbers from us before you sign — budget, timeline, and approval steps — not after.
PRESENT.
Present is a decision Bill and Sandra make on every project: they stay involved after the contract is signed, not just before. The people you meet in the first chat are the ones who give you the keys.
PROUD.
Every project carries our name after we’ve moved on to the next one. We’d rather lose a job than compromise on quality.
