Re: Know any custom house builders that is not afraid of 2m 5Aug 31, 2010 10:23 am Yeeah i know LP Warren.... they are the one who are charging me 550k for a 32 sq house.... insanely priced. Its not very bad slop too, just 2m.... I will look up the others tho!! Re: Know any custom house builders that is not afraid of 2m 6Aug 31, 2010 11:01 am does it have to be a custom builder? I thought some project builders might build on 2m slopes? might be a cheaper option.

Re: Know any custom house builders that is not afraid of 2m 9Aug 31, 2010 8:11 pm National Builders Group actually have a number of designs specifically for sloping land- and were very reasonably priced last time I heard....and from memory, one of their brochures stated that they had a sloping block specialist you could talk to.

My brother recently bought a sloping block in Plenty, so I understand your conundrum. Good luck searching Re: Know any custom house builders that is not afraid of 2m 11Aug 31, 2010 10:05 pm i am currently getting Genjusho to build on my slope which is around 4m.... I looked at LP Warren but found them pricey.... Couldnt speak highly enough of our builder and we have had several issues.... Re: Know any custom house builders that is not afraid of 2m 13Sep 01, 2010 6:45 pm I know Hotondo do custom builds. They are building on our block that has a 2 metre cut at the front of the block and a further 1.5 from the top of the cut to the back of the block. We are building a 34 sp double storey split level home with the garage 1 metre below the rest of the house. Re: Know any custom house builders that is not afraid of 2m 14Sep 01, 2010 8:05 pm Quote: Know any custom house builders that is not afraid of 2m slop actually 2 metres is quite a bit of slop. I can see why ppl might not want to go near it maybe if it was SLOPE your land might have a better chance.

As for the slope. 2mt over what length/width? If its 2mt over the width of the block and your block is only 12mt wide, then it might be a hassle. If its a 2mt slope over the depth of the block and you block 45mt deep, then it won't be as big a problem. And what is OB pathway? Re: Know any custom house builders that is not afraid of 2m 17Sep 23, 2010 9:11 pm Benimarun Thanks! Keep em coming! I recently spoke to Latitude37, you guys who havent signed up, may wanna talk to them. Currently building on a sloping block with Latitude 37. Had many challenges with design / council, etc very happy with their performance.

Thanks Donuts. I'm such n00b Owner building has its ups and downs. But I think you need knowledge in one of the trades to make it truly cost effective.
