Me & my wife have just secured our block of land 537m2! as soon as we got the email as we live 5minutes away we raced down to the office and signed up! $252,000
I've been visiting the site since the start of development back in January!
They have 47 blocks in total all mainly 500m2.
For the past 3 months as the time gets closer and closer I have been looking at different builders / display homes etc.. so many different companies to choose from and they all offer different pricing.. I myself am looking to build a house for <$200k out of the 5 different companies I was only able to find one that was able to offer a house for that price (4 Bedroom, 2 bathroom, double garage) heck even some houses did not include a drive way.. lots of extra's that other companies would hide from you until you saw the quote..
I thought I would create this thread to post updates / get some input into some of my thoughts and overall create a history for other new home buyers to see what I went through!
Costs I've been quoted for some things,
NBN Install $775
Temp fencing for site $560
I've just signed the forms and put the $5000 deposit down as of today, spoke to our bank manager whom I've been having regular meetings with prior to this day so I'm all setup! got a conveyancing person who is in the process of receiving all her paperwork from our property manager..
Now just waiting to setup a time to meet with our builder to go through there prelim paperwork.. I must say tho I've never had to sign so much paperwork!!
