We had ours today and they refused to lock in those items and my bank won't approve finance if those items are not finalised. Were your consultant's estimates close on allowances such as tiles and stormwater? Ours unfortunately were well out even though we chose standard tiles. Did you need sumps with your stormwater? Our colsultant didn't allow for any sumps so we are up for more $$.

Things have been going well, we are reasonably settled into our new home. Still got to put a few things on the walls, and we definitely need a garden! Part of our fence blew over last Thursday!
