Hi all
Long time forum reader/stalker but this is my first post. I have learned so much from this forum so far so want to say a big thankyou to everyone first.
As a bit of background, we are building a 2 storey home NOR in Perth (bought the land last December), approx 350sqm with double brick ground floor and brick veneer upstairs. Things have been going ok with the builder, prestart is all done and we have just received our contract. It's a HIA contract and seems to be fairly standard but my query is around the build time?
They have stated 45 working days to commence and then 325 working days to completion. There is no allowances for incumbent weather etc included in that so presumably that would be on top. This seems like a very long build! Taking weather and holidays etc into consideration, it could be over 18 months which seems excessive?
Anyone else built a similar size home who could advise what their contract build times were?
Thanks in advance for any advice or previous experience you can give.
