Only thing I regret is that I wish I would have pushed harder to have all my changes included before I signed up so I had a better idea on the cost. We spent 18k or so at prestart which was okay but it would have been nice to have these things thought of and included prior to this stage. It's our first time building too so you get to learn these things I guess! The prestart with Ventura was all really smooth and you get an appointment with a interior designer who helps you with colours which was helpful. I have heard good things from Ventura so hopefully everything goes smooth sailing - I think it's hugely dependent on the site team you get. We signed our PPA with Ventura in November so they have been pretty patient but I let them know titles were a long way off. I am not sure if it's been mentioned to you but in Providence I bought a block that has the BAL+12.5 requirements so that added 12k or so onto my price. Hopefully you got a block without the BAL rating! Main thing to remember when comparing builders is comparing apples for apples and obviously go for the one who you feel most comfortable with. We got a pack with Ventura which included aircon etc. Obviously I would have saved $$ doing floors, air con etc myself after handover but to be honest - we are slack and just wanted a near complete house! Look forward to your updates. I can't wait for this estate to start taking shape!
