Hi,
I just started looking for a vacant land and need some of your help.
I just visited 3 land and got contour plan for the these.
would you please help me to understand which one would be great to go with as I believe if it's more than 1 m change in ur slope
it would cost you high a lot.

These blocks will require some cut and fill to give a level construction pad but shouldn't be that expensive. (perhaps $2-3,000) If you want to build right up to the edge or have a driveway on the edge a low retaining wall may also be needed The Harder You Try - the Luckier You Get !
