Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Lynden Views Estate Kembla Grange 2526. 443May 04, 2015 6:44 pm There will be more land for sale I would estimate around the start to mid next year ... Not all the land was sold but I think they will hang onto it until it's registered. All of us who have got blocks have house and land packages not just a piece of land. Alkira is very expensive I think but will be registered before lynden view .

I'm just beginning the building process so probably wouldn't be ready till end of year at the earliest but hard to get the ball rolling not knowing land sizes dimensions etc, oh we'll might prepare everything I can do and then get the plans drawn up when I've got a deposit on land. Why you say Alkira is expensive? You think Lynden will be cheaper? All land is bullsh!? expensive these days Re: Lynden Views Estate Kembla Grange 2526. 445May 04, 2015 8:02 pm Alkira is a lot more then any other estate even Brooks reach north . Lynden view prices we got were no where near what alkira is now but I'm sure next release prices will go up.

You won't be able to buy just land there for a while. Next stage is house and land packages too. There may be done builders like beechwood who haven't released their blocks as yet that you may find available. Smaller blocks than ours at alkira sold for $150k more.

Fingers crossed. Roads are looking good they've been carved out pretty well now MJH Havana one at Lynden views Kembla Grange Http://havanalyndenviews.blogspot.com.au/ 25/5/14 - $5000 Deposit paid 19/6/14- Colour walkthrough 16/7/14- Accepted tender 22/8/14- Colour selections Re: Lynden Views Estate Kembla Grange 2526. 450May 12, 2015 9:18 am led-zep Yeah the prices we all got are pretty great when comparing Brooks reach north and Alkira. I have no complaints there at all. Bar the delays things are going quite well now. Did they sell land seperately? or were they all house+land packages? Re: Lynden Views Estate Kembla Grange 2526. 451May 12, 2015 4:37 pm House + land packages. So they posted that bulk works are done and civil started this week. Maybe that September time frame is looking pretty good pending weather I guess we do need to get our loan sorted! Just a shame we had the delay otherwise we would be moving in December. Re: Lynden Views Estate Kembla Grange 2526. 452May 12, 2015 6:58 pm FINALLY its starting to take shape! Must admit we are starting to get a little excited and eager to get building! Has anyone completed there electrical appointment yet? I have read a few posts in other forums and was a little surprised to see how much people have spent on electrical additions, far more than we have allocated. Re: Lynden Views Estate Kembla Grange 2526. 454May 12, 2015 11:21 pm How much are you budgeting for electrical? Is $4000 realistic? I've already done TV data and alarm so this is just electrical. I've over budgeted for everything else so there is some $ still to go. I still need to lock in what doing with the air conditioning. That will add a bit. I did see the concrete storm water or sewer pipes on the lots 1013 area today. Come on boys and keep away rain. Someone may be stabbed before Christmas.

Did anyone get confirmation regarding natural gas? Still haven't seen this confirmed. Re: Lynden Views Estate Kembla Grange 2526. 456May 12, 2015 11:32 pm Yes natural gas has been confirmed by the sales guys. James and Andrew. Thanks for the electrical price. We were given the home hub as part of our package. I actually don't want it but they were not going to give me any credit for it so I kept it but put it where I wanted it to go but not in the garage. Re: Lynden Views Estate Kembla Grange 2526. 457May 16, 2015 9:42 am Can anyone recommend the following, we are looking at getting quotes to bundle within our loan - if possible - driveway and concreting - out door decking - floor tile installer - shutters and blinds We are buying tiles separately through masters (much cheaper) so just need someone to lay them I have heard varying prices for driveways up to $10,000! So would be interested in anyone's thoughts and quotes Regarding the blinds and shutters I know a few places do them in Wollongong has anyone had any good experience in the past or looking right now? We have budgeted our furniture already so this is the final step before we get the loan sorted (when we get the go ahead) Cheers Re: Lynden Views Estate Kembla Grange 2526. 458May 20, 2015 10:47 am As a house and land package a driveway would of been included as you need it for certificate of occupancy. Did you delete it from your tender? Have a look. I had two quotes both around $100/m2 for a driveway. A good tiler will charge a bit for laying tiles. Maybe more per square meter than the cost of the tiles. Re: Lynden Views Estate Kembla Grange 2526. 459May 20, 2015 3:39 pm Yeah we don't have a drive way included with MJH - looking to set this up privately. Will get quotes for it soon cheers Yeah the tiles are cheap just cost of a tiler is what we need Having a look around for quotes this week Re: Lynden Views Estate Kembla Grange 2526. 460May 25, 2015 10:36 am For those building with MJH have you received a more accurate measurements of your windows? We are looking at quotes for blinds and shutters and cannot get a more accurate idea of sizes etc We spent close to 2 years in a process with TA. It was horrible..... we got to tender, and the first cut was 50% over our budget which "they care such about meeting ". We… 18 27598 |
