Browse Forums General Discussion 1 Jun 20, 2018 11:22 am Hi, I have just recently decided to change my house type post contract. We are about sign the estimate/design change for the new tender. Currenlty 2740 ceiling but the total house price is beyond our budget based on the estimate. Is it possible to wait for the tender to be presented to us, and change back the ceiling to standard should it go beyond our budget? I am not sure if we will be charged with a re-tender fee. Of course, we dont want to make the same mistakes again from previous. Thank you and appreciate your thoughts. Re: Building with Wisdom Homes - Re tender 2Jun 26, 2018 5:03 pm Have they already indicated how much it will cost to have higher ceilings? The preliminary estimate should have a figure on there already. If so, you can work out how much it will save you to go back to standard ceilings and you can decide whether it's worth it, and to change it before the tender is presented. If I remember right, one builder quoted me around $3-4k to have ground floor ceiling heights raised to 2740. So in the grand scheme of things for the whole house quote, it's not a lot, and may not help you substantially get back to budget.

Yes you can make structural changes until you sign the contract, after that you get charged a fee to redraw the plans. Building Monte Carlo 40- Wisdom homes Can someone please offer some advice?
