Tiger Tail $3,500 @Seren1ty @Kjane Could you please share with me of your site cost experience (in the final contract) and any other additional cost/hidden cost not from this list? As we're on very tight budget, the site cost showed above total $57,650 is very huge amount for us. Any tips or suggestion are welcome. Again, Thanks for your kind help! Thanks for the kind feedback Tea Land, we're happy you may have found a colour scheme you like The Roof tiles are Monier Atura, with flat A-Line capping, in the colour Barramundi. The gutters colour is Monument, and the Window and Render colour is called Surf Mist. The site costs will be different for every block of land, so they are hard to compare to someone elses. Ours were in the same ballpark though. Tea Land Hi Seren1ty, Two more questions: 1) Do you know what's the standard wide for the position of the 2 front post for your Traditional Façade before you made change? 2) Have you modified any windows size of your house like kjane did? I would like to know, what’s the standard size of the guest bedroom (ground floor) window and all of the other bed room windows for traditional façade? I am looking forward to hear from you! Many Thanks for your kindness 1) Sorry I don't know the exact gap between the front posts on the standard 38, we requested the gap be widened very early on. Instead of 1.77m, standard may be closer to 1.3m. John should be able to tell you, or you could ask for the original plans for the 38. 2) Apart from the new twin windows (between porch and garage), which are both 0.7m wide, and the same height as the other lower-level windows on the existing front room, we did not modify any other facade windows.

Agree with Seren1ty that every site is different and council requirements different so it's really hard to compare site costs. Our site costs are quite a bit higher with extra costs for stormwater connection, driveway guttering, access for construction, area loading and extra for drop edge beam. In total our site costs are sitting around 80K but this is due to particular council requirements, location and land being on a slope. Our prices haven't changed much from the initial estimation though. Re: Building with Hall & Hart Homes 119Apr 24, 2018 11:06 am Tea Land Hi kjane, Thanks a lot for your quick answer and a best tips for garage window (How much Cost$?if you know). Much appreciated... Just to confirm, did you start with Elyse 38 base on Classic Façade (Included) or Traditional Façade ($4000)? Did you know what's the standard height for the garage in Classic Façade the standard height for the garage in Traditional Façade? Have you widened the position of the 2 front posts, so they are as wide as the front door wall 1.77m apart like seren1ty did? @seren1ty Anyone know what's the standard wide for the position of the 2 front post for Classic Façade (Included) or Traditional Façade ($4000)? Which stage are you in at the moment? John have told us, we have 210 fixed tender days after accept final tender for KDR. After that if there is a delay before final contract, H&H will charge $1,250 per month for extend tender. Is this the same for you? I was quite worry about this charge. I am looking forward to hear from you! Many Thanks Garage window cost is $320 for a fairly large window, the cost will depend on how big you want to go. Ours is a classic façade. In the classic façade the posts are the same width as the front door walls (on our plans anyway) with a width of 1690 and the pillars are 590 each in addition to that. Probably best to speak with John about exactly what you want and he will be able to give you accurate advice that suits your vision for the front façade. Our plans are currently with CDC for review/approval. Same wording in our contract. I'm not concerned about this as I sought further clarity about this at the tender presentation meeting and feel comfortable.

Thanks a lot for your reply! kjane Your information is very helpful for me. Could you please clarify for me do you sign & accept the final tender (all amount fixed) first then go to CDC/DA for approval right? Once CDC or DA approved, then go to sign the contract. Is it correct? I am a bit confuse with the step and procedure now, sorry to be a first time build. Also, do you actually do the Landscape plan yourself or go to professional? I also like to save some money on this as well. Many Thanks for your kind help!
