Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Our Build with ClearView Homes -Plumpton VIC 171Aug 03, 2016 9:38 pm SJ_house13 So we got keys this morning!! Finally! Didn't actually take any photos as we didn't have time. Went by before to start moving small things into the garage. There's still a few things ClearView will need to come out to fix like one of the window winder isn't fixed in properly. A small part of the kitchen island stone bench needs to be polished etc. But very excited to move in over the weekend nonetheless! Our First Build viewtopic.php?t=79716 Congrats!! Good luck with your move Re: Our Build with ClearView Homes -Plumpton VIC 173Aug 08, 2016 7:57 pm We actually don't have much in the house yet! Didn't expect to move in over the weekend. Fridge and microwave will be delivered this Wed. Then the dining table, dining chairs, bar stools, coffee table, TV unit and hallway table will be delivered early next week.

How big was the house and quote? What you suggest about the build experience. I am considering Mimosa going with standard design because of good price and a lot of good inclusions already in price.

Hi! It's a 27.2 square house. Quote was at $240k including our upgrades etc but we then had to pay extra because less than half our land was in the bushfire zone. Then paid extra for a different slab. Ended up at $260k. The downside to our build experience was the build time. We were told on average it'll take 4.5 - 5 months. But it took us 10 months. Upside was we went with a small builder who also did custom build so we went in with the floorplan we wanted. We were also able to negotiate alot of extras. I thought you were having a bad experience with Mimosa so far? Not too sure what they will be like as a builder. We originally thought about going with Mimosa, but just asking for a quote was a task in itself so we changed our minds. We went to 3 different Mimosa show home/sales office and asked for someone to contact us to discuss further and no one ever contacted us! What are some of their inclusions?

Thanks! Haha. There's a TV up on that feature wall now. We haven't taken more photos yet as we're away on holiday. Only been in our house for a month and we're away for a month! So we haven't connected our NBN yet so no data to upload photos! Also, we haven't installed our pendant lights or bought any decorative pieces for the house. Seems like alot of people on here get to that stage alot faster than us. Although, we also had to save for our holiday. Will upload more photos once we're back from our holiday next month.

We purposely put this in as we wouldn't have had enough room for our shoes otherwise. This was taken before all my shoes were put in... 4 rows for the BF and the rest for me... lol Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Our First Build viewtopic.php?t=79716 I have posted this before: We hired Darbecca to do every stage inspection, and I strongly recommend them to anyone that asks me.
