Have been mucking around with plans of what i think i want in regards to electrical and lighting, any opinions from anyone would be great as i want to get it sorted before the electrical appointment and always good to get a fresh set of eyes.

Looks OK,
Just remember with lighting to watch where you cast a shadow if you have overhead lighting. Include as many power points as you can, including hallways for things like vacuum cleaners, future lamps etc. Electrical is expensive. Here are some sample costs from our build:
Credit for unused batten lights - $89 ea
Downlights - $146 ea
12W LED up/down lights for the facade - $254
20W LED outside floodlight - $202
Dimmer Switch - $120
2 way light switch - $60
Double powerpoint - $90 ea
Square white exhaust fan - $195 ea
Wire and install owner supplied pendant light - $133
Wire and install owner supplied fan - $167
Additional Light circuit - $222 ea
Additional power circuit - $213 ea
Outside power connection/junction box - $353
It can quickly add up.
Hi Gareth,
I have started taking with Brisbane North Coral team and so far so good. I am interested in this Lisbon 27 & 31 design. I have not decided yet. This is my first home and no idea what I should be looking for. You are far ahead of me so please kindly suggest anything that I should look for when it comes to price negotiation as I am on a limited budget.
