Browse Forums Buying Land 1 May 13, 2019 7:00 pm Hi, I am looking for a builder that isn’t too much more expensive than the volume builders (we were close to signing up with a volume builder at one stage but they ended up saying the slope was too much trouble for them). We need them to build three detached 25-35sq dwellings on a ½ acre block with a 4m sloping up block to the back of it. The block is in Greensborough (north-eastern Melbourne). Can be turnkey builders (fencing/landscaping etc) or otherwise. We have designs for the three dwellings too. Does anyone have any recommended builders that could fit the bill? The going rate seems to be 15-20 per sqm from what I've seen and heard.

There are a few builders in the area that specialise but we didn't end up going any further. I'd imagine that most who build in Greensborough would also do Heidelberg (close enough), which is probably why you asked me in the first place.
