Thanks for the informative.. 3d views definitely are helpful and should be essential but good builds have happened without them for a long time. I am very happy with my choice YMMV.

Averna are a newer younger company, the positive is a lot of things that Riverstone is not interested in experimenting with, they are , the negative is lack of experience may lead to inaccurate cost projections. With Riverstone, their software is crap, they do not provide decent 3d views, they will ...

We are one month behind schedule and have been charged 60k more but barring that ..very happy with everything so far . Roof is going up now. Communication has been open and both supervisor and our liaison has been very helpful. Thanks Shai

Now since I am here may as well post an update, ground floor brick works was completed within 3 weeks and the site has been left clean as a whistle. I went and checked every single wall with a metre long level and found no problems anywhere. So far so good. The first floor slab goes down next week h...

Seriously if anyone is considering Building with any of the above mentioned builders Do Not Defamed any builders directly on this forum. But there is no reason why you can't send and reply to private messages.. use messaging wisely Cheers Chris The whole purpose out here I thought was to help peopl...

I had to sign up for this one since I wanted to comment. I am building with Riverstone, my second build with them. The first one where I stay was a Zorzi build. Riverstone are excellent at what they do which is why this is my second build. But what an excellent drama piece this one is. Well done to...

Yes very interesting..I gave a lot and got a lot ..I am in touch with AsxTradingGirl on PM.. hopefully I can help her out.. I am also now in touch with Anna Pearce so stay tuned folks. And btw to the guy who believes Burke is a big building company.. BGC is a big building company mate..I have met Mi...

I have since confirmed Anna does work in Riverstone. I was wrong and am deeply apologetic for my rude words AsxTradingGirl . I hope you can forgive me. Anna is in sales and I have never met her in the offices or in the display homes. I have spoken to her. I have also PMed you my number.. very happy ...

Hmm.. could well be true but I can pretty much guarantee that smaller companies do not have the resources to achieve what you are suggesting. Brian Burke Homes, Riverstone, West Style and the few others I had shortlisted are all small companies. I have never met or heard of Anna Pearce as surprising...

Nah Asx can still give me his/her name mate if not publicly then privately ..whats stopping her/him ? Riverstone will not disclose plans but they will definitely tell me if it is an active client. Well asxgirl why don't you send me your details on a pm and I shall walk you through everything if you ...

I shall ask and reply back tomorrow about the Anna Pearce mystery though who does that help I am not sure but since you asked "chippy" ..I shall enquire and confirm

No not sure mate.. maybe there is a Anna Pearce that works for Riverstone.. I do not know everyone who works there but I know the people who interact with the clients.. I may be wrong though.. I am known for that

May I also state given such deeply involved comments :-D .. Riverstone is a very small company, very small concurrent client base, Friday meetings every week for all projects, some under construction, some under design..so cross checking a client is not difficult. If anyone is engaging and wants par...

I'm a bit disappointed this loser hasn't bitten back. Must be doing more important things, cos you know, rich people don't use the internet much (though that's apparently changing). Here you go mate.. the loser is biting back. Not sure why I am a loser but if by biting back you mean replying.. ther...

Uh oh. Sorry folks .. been a bit busy.. so here I am the loser Tnuc, the doctor with the lost patient and the sad millionaire. Well first of all I am not a doctor, as someone else pointed out , I run an IT company. The doctor comment was a joke in reply to one of the replies here. Secondly to the pe...

Mate , there is no Anna in Riverstone. You are not a girl. You are just trying too hard .. everything comes with time. Stop struggling so hard and making a joke of yourself. Or keep trying.. your choice kid.

Well you had me going there for a second scamster. Most people building in the million plus range are not looking online but that is changing rapidly so hopefully this helps someone out and my effort in posting does not go to waste

You got that off their website aye ? Have you engaged with a sales consultant yet ? That blurb refers to post design stage. ONCE YOU ARE COMPLETELY HAPPY WITH THE CONCEPT PLANS. Have you got the concept plan sorted ? What is your name and which sales consultant are you engaged with ? If you are genu...

I would have thought that is obvious. This is a custom builder. Your house is not a cookie cutter design where the builder knows the costs beforehand because they have built a display home and 10s of the same design and layout. They will give you a cost before signing the contract. For that stage y...
