Hearing today that home loan applications are low makes me think the cost of houses will decrease? Should we buy or build now or will the market drop again in the near future?
Any comments or suggestions are much appreciated!
Thankyou.

Re: When will be a good time to build or buy - NOW OR WAIT? 17Apr 14, 2010 8:42 pm Thankyou EVERYONE for your valued input I really appreciate it and learnt some good information....For example that when you build I thought once you signed for a particular price that was the fixed price and it couldnt change again. Wow I was wrong. Anyway Its very clear what I should do...... Re: When will be a good time to build or buy - NOW OR WAIT? 18Apr 14, 2010 9:10 pm That was an interesting link Mrs B ....perhaps suggesting that in terms of investement, the Melbourne property market is not such a great place to buy in to at the moment. At least that's what I took from it. I also spoke with a property developer on the weekend and they aren't buying in Melbourne at the moment (because the market is too hot), but they are buying in other places - Ballarat, Bendigo and interstate (Brisbane). Confusing to know what to do, isn't it. Thanks for the link Mrs B - a long, but interesting read! Building on an acre in Macedon ......one day. Re: When will be a good time to build or buy - NOW OR WAIT? 19Apr 14, 2010 10:31 pm Misty I just wanted to clarify something when you sign up to build a house the base or fixed price of the home when you signed doesnt change if the builder decides to do a price rise but upgrade prices may if you make changes along the way. ![]() Budde Design 3D Architecural Visualizations, Architectural Rendering, Artist Impressions, 2D & 3D floor plans http://www.buddedesign.com nathan@buddedesign.com Re: When will be a good time to build or buy - NOW OR WAIT? 20Apr 15, 2010 7:10 am ![]() Misty I just wanted to clarify something when you sign up to build a house the base or fixed price of the home when you signed doesnt change if the builder decides to do a price rise but upgrade prices may if you make changes along the way. Not quite right.... most builders will usually have provision in the contract for price rises if your site start is delayed beyond a specified date. So if land settlement is delayed, or there's some hold up with permits, you may find that your base price increases. We knew before we paid our deposit in June that there would be a price rise in November. We signed contracts in July and expected to settle in September so our site start was set for October. But the land settlement was delayed, and it wasn't titled till November which meant that we had to wear the price rise. Luckily it was only $1,000, but I know of numerous people who've copped $7,000-$10,000 rises. 9 26412 1 13643 Soak wells and electrical run in happening this week!
