Yay. Getting closer. I also thought I'd post some pricing in relation to what costs we got quoted to do electrical items. If anything, this will give others an idea of what they can expect if they are doing a similar process.
In addition, if you do get extra lights and power points you may be looking at a similar cost like these:
As you can tell from our list, we didn't get them to supply any fitting as the price would have been scary! We were keeping our budget tight on electrical up front, so we'll get the fittings as we see them on special. They will only install the standard light fittings, and we'll have to organise the following to be fitted ourselves:

I suggest visiting empire lighting on Brisbane Rd for a look, they have an ok range as far as what's popular at the time and they're quite a bit cheaper than places like Beacon.

I know many hit stumbling blocks on the valuation of their house prices, but we've hit it with the land valuation when we've added the cost to build the house on top of loan. The valuer's report has come back valuing the land $20k less than what we paid for it... Has anyone experienced that before? Re: Plantation: Marlo 4 | Gold Coast - Land Valuation Less?! 54Jul 03, 2014 7:27 pm That's weird. Was there a valuation done on the land originally when you bought it? Or did you buy it cash or something? Build thread: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=65085 Re: Plantation: Marlo 4 | Gold Coast - Land Valuation Less?! 55Aug 01, 2014 11:48 am How's it all going TiredHalo?

I know many hit stumbling blocks on the valuation of their house prices, but we've hit it with the land valuation when we've added the cost to build the house on top of loan. The valuer's report has come back valuing the land $20k less than what we paid for it... Has anyone experienced that before? We too had a valuation come under what ours was worth. The valuer admitted he had absolutely no idea about the area and its value but refused to change it. We then put up a fight and finally the bank allowed a secondary evaluation which came in at the contract price. It was a huge and massive headache!

Hope all is well Re: Plantation: Marlo 4 | Gold Coast - Land Valuation Less?! 58Dec 01, 2014 7:38 pm Hi TiredHalo, we just purchased a Marlo 4 from Plantation in Upper Coomera. Plantation didnt have any display homes similar to Marlo to show us. it would be awesome if would you have pictures of the built home to show us thanks heaps at most it will have a short lintel which could be moved up just below the ceiling or even above.
