Also, what stages would you recommend as a MUST? I definitely want pre handover done, but can only really afford 1-2 more, which would you do?

There is a member on here under "Building Expert" who is an inspector who helps run the company with his son. I've heard nothing but good thinks about them and Nik, the son has been so helpful with all my questions. Our first inspection will be done in the next week or so before the slab goes down.
