I will try and get better photos on the week end of the other spots. Side note some more bricks turned up to fix some areas.

I have just came across this website and still reading all the threads. I would like to know whether any of you have any promotional packages being given free of charge from your consultant? Also, in terms of pricing will Metricon willing to negotiate or is their price pretty much set?

In answer to your questions, in my humble opinion: Most builders will have some sort of promo package, I'm on luv luxury but they change them every 6 months or so. They are fairly similar but watch out they can be a double edged sword: e.g. I got 10 free upgraded light switches but have alot more in the house so I'll be paying for all the rest (nice up sell M!). When they change they tend to get better so worth checking how long a promo has been running for. they don't add up to that large a portion of total build cost but every little helps. M's price is fairly well set for the base price and I have to say I didn't really ask for a discount. For me I focused more on trying to negotiate on all the extras, upgrades and timeframe. I do know of people whom have built multiple times with a builder getting $10-$20k off their base price. Hope that helps, I found it useful to read these blogs to get a sense of how good a company was, and once we'd selected M, what specific issues their customers had called out. Oh to be back in planning stages! Once you've selected a builder and a plan, I would say that every minute to spend reviewing paper plans, selections and asking every question you can is the best thing you can do.... trying to change in construction is just soooo much more painful compared to pulling out a signed plan and saying "this is what we signed for, this is what we want" Build thread: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=78995 Build thread - viewtopic.php?f=31&t=78995 Re: Metricon Laguna 40 Kingston Sydney Northern Beaches 1078Mar 07, 2017 7:58 pm Liz40 Hello Everyone, I am currently looking into building a new home in the Northern Beaches and yet to make a decision.

Hi Liz, We actually got our package for free "managers special" don't think it is normal though, prices are pretty fixed. I found the sales agent at Homeworld was a lot better but it is a pain going all the way there.
