We are looking to change builders. We have had to change our land and now we are being slapped with a 5 k costs to travel 4 kilometres from the original site. We also will lose our construction grant of 8.5K because the builder refuses to make it a variation on our contracr and wants us to sign a new one. With the changes it was worth us looking in to a builder that is more local and we have been impressed by the improvement in quality and inclusions.
I know the deposit is non-refundable but of the 2K they have taken from us, all they did was open a file, sign the contracts and they did draw up some plans. I was wondering if anyone ever got any of this money back? We pretty much consider it gone but thought it was worth a shot
