What’s Happening?
Husband-and-wife builders Anthony and Lynelle Wolff have launched ARW Homes, an independent, family-owned building business in Mackay.
The move ends the team’s association with a national franchise banner, while keeping its established staff and local operations. An open day at the Shoal Point display home marked the launch and introduced the new business name to locals.
Why It Matters
Operating independently gives ARW Homes greater flexibility when working with different home designs, suppliers and price points.
It also allows Anthony, Lynelle and their team to make local decisions based on the needs of Mackay families. While the business structure has changed, the people responsible for its homes and client relationships remain the same.
Local Impact
Anthony, Lynelle and their team will continue building for the same range of clients across the Mackay region. These include young couples, growing families and people seeking a home that better suits their next chapter of life.
The Wolffs have also confirmed that their approach to building will remain grounded in their connection to Mackay. It is where they live, raised their family and developed long-standing relationships with local clients.
By the Numbers
- 20 years: Anthony and Lynelle Wolff built homes across Mackay under a national franchise before establishing their independent business.
- More than 400 homes: The team reached this milestone across the Mackay region during its two decades of local building work.
- 8 August 2026: ARW Homes officially launched with an open day at the team’s Shoal Point display home.

Anthony Wolff, co-founder of ARW Homes, said the new name formally reflected the team’s record across the region.
“Over the past 20 years, we’ve built more than 400 homes in Mackay, and we’re proud of every one of them,” Anthony said. “This name finally puts that on paper.”
Co-founder Lynelle Wolff said the move to independence would not change the standards guiding the family business.
“Mackay is where we live and where we’ve raised our own family, so we’ve always built homes the way we’d want one built for us,” Lynelle said. “That hasn’t changed, and it never will.”
Zoom Out
ARW Homes is a family-owned home builder based in Mackay, Queensland, and led by Anthony and Lynelle Wolff.
The business became fully independent in August 2026 following two decades of building homes under a national franchise banner. Its continued focus is on local knowledge, family needs and long-standing client relationships.
What To Look For Next?
ARW Homes will continue working with established and new clients under its independent name. The change will allow the team to consider more designs, suppliers and price points for future home builds.
