Re: Simonds Palisade Build Ripley QLD 62May 16, 2016 10:20 am Its not looking good at this stage. As much as we like the design and would be happy to go thru with it, we can not afford the 20k shortfall in valuation. A big factor in this valuation was that there are other builders out there with similar turnkey packages for around the same price as simonds. These include fencing, window furnishings turf and gardens, letterbox, clothesline. Etc. It is going to be much more our favour to switch builders.

So not keen to continue that customer service. Meanwhile i have sorted a better design full turnkey package with bold properties so looking forward to moving forward with that. Re: Simonds Palisade Build Ripley QLD 65May 16, 2016 4:23 pm Ahh sorry to hear that but tbh, if I was offered a full turnkey package for the same or less, I would jump at the chance. It really does add up. We've just done gallery and omg another almost 10k gone and that's without electrical or tiles wahhhh. Good on you for sorting out something else. Best of luck with it Hi all.
