have been lurking for a while now, reading heaps about the experiences people have with the various builders, and their individual builds.
We've been on the hunt for a knock down in one of the Melbourne Bayside suburbs for a few months, and finally bought an 850 sqm block today, with a house on it that we'll knock down to do a rebuild.
At this stage, we believe we're looking at building a Porter Davis Marbella, Rochford, and we also quite like the MainVue Emporio home. We're going with a volume builder, because we've been given an indicative price of around $20k / sqm for a custom design/build, which will blow us out of the water financially...
We've got a long settlement, which will let us sell our current home, and a family house that we can live in for the duration of our build.
Look forward to sharing our journey, and learning the tricks for dealing with the builders
