Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Pulling out just before contract signing 7Mar 30, 2009 10:52 am Built with Bentley homes in Doreen All moved in Dec 2009 Now for the garden! Our stuff so far viewtopic.php?f=31&t=16532 Re: Pulling out just before contract signing 8Mar 30, 2009 11:08 am I had given our first builder the flick after constant stuff ups (wrong house, incorrect changes, too many issues to list), terrible customer service (lowest point was being told to ring back another time as we weren't as important as other customers who were building sooner than us!) and price rises that were just not reasonable (it was like dealing with a lawyer - every time we spoke/met with them our price jumped $5k!!!). So basically, I agree with everything Jo wrote, they get you to a point where you are so emotionally involved in the house you just suck it up and put up with it. We are giving a company a $200k + project to work on, they need to treat us with some respect. We are so excited about our build now, were are spending the same amount that we were going to yet have a much larger, custom designed house where our builder actually cares about their product going out there so much they have made so many changes to our house for no extra cost because it will look better. Sure, it created more stress and we didn't really want to start over, but I have completely no regrets about it and every time we talk about our house - we are so positive and our house has a great feeling about it now, built with love and all that c*** so its now an enjoyable experience. ICK So glad the building is over, never again. Loooove our house, but still not quite sure it was worth all of the stress they put us through! Unless there is something in special conditions the builder does not have to give you timeline.
