Hi Ladybird DEFINITELY PHONE !!! I would email all the time with a question and get no answer for a week, then i would phone ( private number ) and tamara would answer straight away and say she'd been too busy to respond to emails. I do remember though after our driveway was in it still took a while...

Our sales consul...

JG KING wanted $32,560 for site costs so we are very very happy !!! Construction will begin early March,...

Hiya Were not. Its been a very stressfull week.

We told them in no uncertain terms where they could put there contract. Weve realised that b...

Hi Naf Haines is great. We've been in there 3mnths now, very handy we will be able to keep an eye on the whole build process. Very little traffic, and lovely and quiet. Lots of people doing xmas lights at the moment too which is nice. That must be exciting building with 2 friends as neighbours, did ...

Hi Nafiz, welcome ! I dont understand it at all, we currently already live on Haines Drive ( renting ) and have watched this stage go up from scratch. There hasnt been a huge amount of rocks/soil taken away at all. Certainly not enough to warrant $32,000 site costs. Were really disappointed, even mo...
