How much approx for site costs am I up for you think? I guess I need drop edge beams and retaining walls? I budgeted for $40000 for site costs is this fair? Cheers, K. Clarendon won't do retaining walls in Queensland so they will be an extra you have to organise yourself potentially. We had a one metre fall on our block and what the retaining walls were on the plan versus what we needed after the site cut were two different things. Unfortunately this means more work now after handover for us. I can't remember what our site costs were. They don't do retaining walls in NSW either, so your retaining walls will be an extra cost on you above the site costs... And what MirandB said is sooo true - what retaining wall heights are with survey vs what they end up being once the land has been cut are 2 very different things.... Clarendon over cut out land, which meant more bloody work for us post handover...
