Meet Umme Merchant

How long have you been in the building industry?
I've spent the past 12 years in the building and construction industry, including the last eight years with Carlisle Homes. Starting as a Sales Assistant gave me a strong foundation and an understanding of every stage of the building process. Over the years, I've worked alongside some of the best in the industry, and I love helping clients turn their ideas into homes they'll enjoy for years to come.


What types of clients do you specialise in helping?
I work closely with first home buyers, investors and clients planning knockdown rebuilds. My goal is to make the building process exciting, straightforward and rewarding by providing honest advice, clear communication and support from our first conversation through to handover.

What do you love most about Carlisle's home designs? 
Carlisle home designs are perfect for entertainers and multigenerational families, offering the perfect balance of comfort and functionality. Double storey designs that feature a void offer a true sense of luxury while remaining practical for modern family living.


Have you received any industry recognition?
Being recognised with an Excellence in Sales Award in 2025 was a meaningful milestone in my career and reinforces my belief that honest advice and genuine relationships are the foundation of a great building experience.
