Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Jun 08, 2014 10:03 pm The journey begins January 2014, Land purchased (Deposit) February 2014, Met with Wisdom Homes (Colt), We were looking at Wisdom and Eden Brae. Eden Brae had set build months which we did not like. This was a good thing as we really like the Wisdom home quality and designs. February 2014, Decided on a Wisdom home (wife loved the Manhattan 52), We were tossing up between the Ambassador and the Manhattan. Met with Colt again and decided on the Manhattan, party due to the size of the Manhattan and the cost of changes needed to increase the Ambassador to over 50sq. Colt drew up all the adjustments to windows and doors etc. We also added the additional estimated costs of the extras we knew we wanted at the time. May 2014, Signed Wisdom Tender May 2014, Land Registered June 2014, Land Settled We are now working through all the choices we have to make for each of the meetings we go to once the plans come back and we sign build contracts. We are looking forward to seeing what the additional costs will be based on our upgrades at each of the meetings. Now we wait for the next phone call to advise that the plans are ready!

The Manhattan is a good design, we almost went that way too. The best advice I can give you is to get one of these chairs ASAP. You'll sitting around and waiting for your build to start for a long, long time based on my experience. You will want to be comfortable.

Would have to agree with kidsbuggingme it is a very long slow process. We finished bricking a couple weeks ago which took forever and have just had the air con ducts installed. Good luck Re: Building Manhattan 52 Wisdom Home at Kellyville 4Jun 09, 2014 4:17 pm Good luck JaMel and all the best with your build Like the others have stated,the admin is very slow and painful,but the build goes pretty quick and the finished product is quite good.
