Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Apr 06, 2009 8:35 pm Hi All In the process of trying to build......have just about reached the end of our tether with a builder........who wouldn't have it any other way!......and looking at Hokin Prestige Homes. They seem really easy to deal with and are very helpful. Has anyone had experience or heard of experiences with these guys good or bad? cheers HM Re: Hokin Prestige Homes 2Aug 09, 2013 1:51 pm I used these builders recently, they seemed very friendly and efficient until they had me locked into a deposit. They completed the house within the specified time, but because of all the 'estimates' in the contract, it ended up costing more than I was comfortable with. An estimator from my bank told me after it was finished that the house is not worth what I paid for it. An expensive lesson!
