Hello everyone, just registered to this forum:
as I have land on macleay island - close to brisbane - after waiting for many years - I finally decided to go ahead and put a 2-3 bedroom cottage there, it seems that the living quality on the island finally got to the point where it is ok to invest - also soon the islands will be linked to translink and getting to / from island will finally be affordable, police, abulance, 3 supermarkets and lots of shops e.g. are now available on the island ...
does anyone have suggestions - what would be the best solution? ....
my budget so far is 100.000 - I know that I might need more -
found "ecocottages" - turnkey solution 70.000 but only about 30m2 .... would be great to have at least a 55-60m2 cottage and 2 seperate rooms for my weekender;
the southern moreton bay islands are developing since many years, i need a treatment plant and dont want to spend to much, but quality of home should still be acceptable; 2-3 beroom cottage would be fine;
recently I investigated modular homes, pre fabricated homes but it seems that at the end I pay almost the same as if I go for a builder / turnkey solution; builders dont respond, dont give much information and in general to me it seems more like a ripoff than a good alternative solution?
kit homes are not an option for me as I am not a builder myself and need the solution within 3-6 months, starting beginning 2013;
I would be very grateful for suggestions in regards to reliable builders / companies or if you have experiences with pre fabricated homes and how much you spent
cheers
