I am new to this and have never built a home and have the contract meeting coming up. I have been thinking of asking them to throw in some extras but am unsure if builders will do this or what the go is. Any advice would be much appreciated. Love your house and can't wait to see more photo of it!

Love your house and can't wait to see more photo of it! Thanks I assume that when you signed up they had a promo going, you would have got something from that? Also, they've let you lock in a Beckham even though it's discontinued. In my experience the big volume builders won't give you anything for free because they save costs by having everything the same. You may be able to negotiate things like fixed price site costs and if they'll let you do their "move in pack" which is really good value (driveway, turf to front, letterbox, clothesline for $10k). We got 4 different quotes from different builders and Plantation were very competitive. I guess it's worth asking but don't hold your breath Jen (& Dave) Plantation Bronte, Ormeau Ridge, Gold Coast QLD 12/03/2015 - Commencement... 26/08/2015 - Handover! viewtopic.php?f=31&t=76446 Re: Plantation Bronte, Ormeau Ridge QLD - We've been FRAMED! 298May 12, 2015 8:59 pm 60 builds!???
