Browse Forums Building A New House Re: How many SQM apx will 600-800k get me please? 3Jan 02, 2022 8:33 pm mamafox88 Hoping someone can give me some frame of reference before I start having appointments please. Our building budget is 600-800k, wanting a two story house with a likely mid level finish, LVP throughout (tiles in bathrooms), 3m ceilings, master on both ground floor and upstairs with three other bedrooms. I don’t know how many SQM is realistic if anyone could please give me some direction on either end of our budget please? I’m finding it difficult to know especially with the price increases, like is 530sqm way outside our budget, is 350 the max we’d be able to get or can we maybe get larger at that level finish etc as I have no clue. We’re in a large rural town in Victoria and likely be going with GJ Gardner due to limited builders here. HI mamafox88, I am working with the same budget as yours but Im in NSW and with Kurmond Homes plans. I manage to get the Glenleigh41 quoted (with added customisation to some parts of the house) about the 650k. I added a heap of allowances as well for "in case this or that needs upgrading" making the build price increase, but able to stay within 800k at the moment. Hope this helps.
