Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Aug 21, 2008 9:31 am To all Canberrans
In todays Canberra times AVJennings announcing build area extended to include ACT. Hopefully it might bring some competion to the area, Canberra housing prices are a joke in regards to other areas of the country. Cheers Michael.

Re: canberra builders 2Aug 21, 2008 9:55 am I saw that Ad in today's paper as well and for some reason I had it in my head that they went under elsewhere in Australia - or am I confusing this with some other builder? It would be good for more of the bigger builders like metricon to come to canberra purely for competition in the market. I guess though there is not much point in having more builders in town if there is next to no land to build on.
Off topic, did anyone else see the HIA home ideas expo advertised? Is it worth going for a look? houses 3Aug 21, 2008 10:12 am I wil be sticking my nose in for a look, only reason hoping to catch a special on the day if they do really exist. But seriously a good chance to see everything under the one roof and get a couple of hours away from the kids.
I am the stay home dad at the moment. Cheers Michael He wants a dream home theatre - she wants a dream kitchen! Re: canberra builders 4Aug 21, 2008 12:08 pm Good news re the increased competition for builders - I think they were buidling some of the homes in the Elmslea Estate at Bungendore - so it was only a matter of time before they took the next step into the terrirory.
I've been to the HIA Centre a couple of times and it is definitely worth the trip - hopefully you might pick up a 'special' but it will be crowded - still time out from the kids is priceless (I'm a stay at home dad too so I know how valuable it is to get a break, lol).
