Try and talk to Eden Brae about it. We also signed early and went over our month limit by 1 month and ebh didn't even mention it.. Maybe talk to them, and If they want more money try and negotiate the value.. I don't think anyone should pay the total difference in the price differences. I also agree with the price hike tactics.. We had the same and signed up early. Looking at it now though, our house price has gone up 12k from the last price list I have seen... And we also got the bonus 8k builder bonus off the price.. so it worked out well for us in the end. Re: Who else is building with Eden Brae? 127Apr 19, 2012 10:51 pm Our sales consultant at EBH knows about the land issues and has said that when it comes to land rego issues they try to take on as much of the price increase as they can. We thought about settling early but both the bank and solicitor recommended against it since we might be stuck dealing with the removal of the easement. Just have to wait and see what happens... The four of us are ready for the next big step in our lives! Building with Eden Brae - Foxley 30 @ Gregory Hills Re: Who else is building with Eden Brae? 129Apr 30, 2012 12:08 pm Hi Guys, We are building Lincoln37 with EB in Beaumont Rise state, I have colour appointment on 14th, have narrowed down almost everything except the Garage Door. Do you know what will we get default garage door ? What Colour and design are standard? How much does they charge extra if you want something different colour like Deco colour? Thanks guys Farhan Re: Who else is building with Eden Brae? 130Apr 30, 2012 12:36 pm Hi Farhan, We were offered Colorbond colours for the garage door and there are a few patterns that you can pick from. We picked a plain pattern... Sorry - I can't help more than that with the info. Re: Who else is building with Eden Brae? 132May 05, 2012 6:28 pm Guys..something that I came accross this week (don't know how) but if you paid extra to get the additional 2sq, remember to consult with your aircon ppl so you can make sure you aircon has the capacity to cover the extra space =0 I had ended up upgrading mine, cost an extra 500 bucks for the bigger unit =] _________________ Building with EBH - Saville 30 @ The Ponds Building Blog - http://rabsndee.blogspot.com 22/08 - Slab Done 07/09 - Frames 16/09 - Roof 02/10 - Bricks 26/10 - Lockup 17/01 - Settlement Re: Who else is building with Eden Brae? 133May 05, 2012 10:57 pm That wasn't a problem for me - my house design didn't have an alfresco so I put the entire 2 squares into the alfresco plus added the standard alfresco option. Its great, it now about 4 x 8 metres - it's going to be so awesome. Dearheart Re: Who else is building with Eden Brae? 134May 07, 2012 11:05 am Does anyone else find that EBH is very difficult to deal with ?. My standard mantra (read: rant) at the moment is " this is the first, and possibly the only, house we'ver ever built. You build 600/yr ... can you please offer some guidance/advice". They are NOT very forthcoming with any information and most recently sent a PCV for the driveway which list "additional work , bob cat hire and one other item" for $15,000. My response was "you've got to be kidding, for 15 grand you can at least describe what you're doing in a bit more detail" .. I think it's going to be a slow and painful process. Re: Who else is building with Eden Brae? 135May 07, 2012 11:45 am I find that you definitely have to know your build inside and out. Things seem to slip in or out of the tender that if you're not vigilant can be missed easily. I agree about the advice - I'm not sure why they don't offer any guidance there... Re: Who else is building with Eden Brae? 136May 12, 2012 8:14 am Agree, its though cause you need to know some of your ins and outs...hence these forums should help you!! Where are you building? Who is your CSR at Eden Brae? In terms of driveway, i'd recommend getting it done after handover as it will be much cheaper then the 15k your talking about =] _________________ Building with EBH - Saville 30 @ The Ponds Building Blog - http://rabsndee.blogspot.com 22/08 - Slab Done 07/09 - Frames 16/09 - Roof 02/10 - Bricks 26/10 - Lockup 17/01 - Settlement Re: Who else is building with Eden Brae? 137May 12, 2012 2:34 pm And everything takes so VERY long to do. I have been waiting over a month to get all my post-contract variations from when I did my colour choices - there seems to be no reasons for it, things just don't happen. I have been waiting a week to get the drawings of my bathroom redone and all they need to do is move the position of the sink slightly. It is so frustrating.

Dearheart Yeah we had the same experience....I think the office staff at EBH are extremely busy, and seem to work off a priority system - i.e who even is closest to going out to construction gets looked at first. Dont worry guys, once you finally get out to construction it really does move along quite well...very organized, and there is something always happening on your site each day Re: Who else is building with Eden Brae? 139May 17, 2012 11:01 am Come on council!
