First home costs?

Hi guys.

This is my first posts as we have just decided to build our first home.
We have found some awesome lands in Gainsborough Greens, Pimpama.

We will now start looking for some builders although we believe the Coral Homes has the best value for money.

As anyone built with them. Happy with the results ?
Also, what other costs I should take in considerations on top of their "home-design" costs advertised on their website ?

Thanks

Hi Ethan,

We built in Gainsborough 4 years ago and have recently sold to build again. First of all, congratulations on your land purchase. I haven’t built with Coral, but there are a number of Coral threads on here that you can read.

Things to be aware of will be site costs. Most of Gainsborough is H1/H2 soil classification. Then depending on where your block is you might be facing an N3 wind rating. You’ll then need to factor in covenant requirements. Things like facade render etc will add more costs. Then more money again for any of your upgrades eg electrical, flooring, air con... All depends on the finishes you’re looking for.

Thanks Kailie.

I love Gainsborough plus the blocks are totally flat. We are just going to have a chat with some builders tomorrow and try to have a quote from them.

Thanks for your time
