Browse Forums Building A New House 1 May 03, 2016 7:16 pm Hi my husband and I are building with beechwood homes in western sydney. We are ready to get the ball rolling and we have just received our contract in the mail and have found after it came out of council they added $14,000 for council requirements. Is this normal? We got a big shock and its all stuff we dont understand. We also noticed that they have stated in a new variation to our tender that after handover, it is up to us to get our electricity pole sorted as well as our pump for the plumbing. Has anyone else had this happen with beechwood? We never got told any of this at the start of this whole process and it seems strange that they can hand over a house without a plumbing pump at least. But as I said, we are very new to this and just wanted to know if this was the norm. Any help on this would be much appreciated!
