We almost went for the same house as you, it's a great design, can't wait to see your changes, if any. We're almost neighbours, we're building in the last stage of Lexia Hi John + Ash?, What design did you go for in the end? How are you finding the area? So many people pull a face when I say we are building in Ellenbrook! Re: New Generation Home - Annie's Landing 14May 10, 2014 12:37 pm I love what you have done with your games room.

Kitchen looks like it will be nice and spacious. Our experience with New Gen has been mixed, started off well with our Sales Rep, then turned a bit sour when he conveniently forgot some things that were discussed. Luckily we had everything on email, so it ended well for us, but it would have been nice to not have to stress about it at the time. Since we went to Prestart things have been great, Prestart lady was good to deal with and so far our SS has been good too, we haven't had any issues since the build started. Brickwork took about a month because we only had two brickies but we are happy with the work they have done. We live in Canning Vale at the moment so I drive by a couple of times a week to check on progress, it's nice to see the changes as they happen, and disappointing when nothing has happened. But that's building I guess. Re: New Generation Home - Annie's Landing 16May 13, 2014 2:36 pm Ok, so now I'm getting anxious as I don't have the costings back from Prestart yet. How long did it take other people to get their quotes back? Re: New Generation Home - Annie's Landing 17May 14, 2014 4:46 pm So got my prestart estimates $26K. Over budget as expected, but I think if we take out the lighting, painting and pavers down the side of the house, we can save ourselves about $7k and come in on budget. Excited! Thought I'd have to delete a lot more of our want list!! I've been quoted $800 for my waterfall end in the kitchen and $2k for a matching study nook. Does anyone think this is expensive or about right? Re: New Generation Home - Annie's Landing 18May 14, 2014 6:30 pm Hi The Turleys, We waited over 2 weeks for the pre-start variations and even after that, there were so many things left out or wrong that it took just under 2 months to have it corrected. $800 for a waterfall seems about right (I'm assuming it's stone), not sure about the study nook as it would depend on the dimensions and materials used. Re: New Generation Home - Annie's Landing 19May 14, 2014 8:18 pm Hi Turleys, Your plan is very good. I am also building with new generation. You basically need to push the pre-start guys for the response. Make sure you read the details in pre-start carefully as we have found mistake in the variations and addendum document. I will also suggest to check out few of the variations from external vendors as I found the markup to be 100% on few of the items. So far my experience is fine with New Generation but I found there estimating teams is over pricy. Some of the variation are very highly costed in my opinion as compared to other builders.
