We have just got our Tender docs for the Manhattan 44 Ens after signing up in Oct 2017. Our land has just been registered and are keen to get moving. We wanted to know how much is the average spend on upgrades etc. We really have no idea how much to allow ourselves for Kitchen, electrical and whatever else. So before we accept tender wanted to see if we should cut anything to allow more on upgrades at selections. Also it will depend on what you need from the bank. If you need the full amounts from the bank, then put in as much as possible in the tender so you can get the full loan amount, but if you don't need all of it, then it's not so important. Also wondering if anyone has used Wisdom for pools? Thanks The question about upgrades are "how deep are your pockets". What i've noticed is Wisdom are expensive ! so upgrades will cost you a fair bit and depends what you want to do yourself. Just to give you an example of my situation, we're about 230k above the base price of our house (not including any site costs) and i'm doing driveway and flooring after handover. Also if u dont need to borrow the full amount from the bank then u really dont need to list all upgrades but if you do then it's good to put as much as possible I'm also going through Wisdom for a concrete pool. Roughly will cost us about 65-70k extra. This is pool, fence and about 28sqm of concrete. I'm tiling myself but probably would have cost 70k if I did tiling through them. They charge over excessive rates for any work like tiling or concreting but we wanted to get the concrete done in order to get pool fence in so we can get interim occupational cert asap. Can someone please offer some advice? Im DESPERATE. Because I'm completely and utterly exhausted. How long are variations taking with other companies at the moment?
