Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Building with Hall & Hart Homes 34Jan 25, 2018 8:23 pm We're very happy with the progress. Our SS Michael has everything booked well in advance and keeps on top of the trades really well. That's exciting about the tender! Hopefully your sales consultant has helped you figure out mostly what you're after. We had John, and he was a great help for us. Make sure to read through a bunch of the 'Things you forget' thread before hand, and ask lots of questions. They were very open with us, and we had lots to ask!

As long as your progress payment schedule is given the all clear from your bank, then it was all pretty reasonable. Most of it is standard HIA anyway, so not much to worry about. We've found there is still some flexibility within reason even after contract. They just seem interested in giving us a great result basically. Re: Building with Hall & Hart Homes 40Feb 07, 2018 9:21 am I'd agree, we are not at the contract part yet but had LOTS of questions and variations we wanted to make in the tender and nothing was too much trouble for Sean our consultant. He had lots of practical suggestions too and pointed out when modifications would cost a lot and suggested alternatives. Where are you building rdcool and which façade have you gone with?
