Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Home plan advice 21Jan 29, 2014 12:03 pm Thanks cupcakes... I am a bit confused about the sitecost now. Developer says the site is class A, builder says he knows the the site cause they are building on the next block to ours and it has A class soil with S footing. With soakwell, builder is asking 20ks. This sounds really high to me. I thought site cost would be the same across builders for a specific site characteristic and they just follow the norms. Now it feels for particular piece of land, site cost might vary across builders which is BS. I was wondering if there is any agency which deals with it and can protect customers. How come the builders can quote randomly without being transparent?
