No changes from us required to move forward, and we have our electrical price already based off what people have stated here. So we are stoked, coming in about 7k under budget. [/quote] Really good result. From experience you can eat into that $7k quite fast the your tiles and electrical selections. Were your site costs reasonable? Cheers T[/quote] See my thread, costs were 12k. Need a p class slab (3 piers) but we got a 10k discount through the current promotions (so 2k actual cost)[/quote] humble can't find the link to your thread Re: Porter Davis homes 2097Jun 06, 2011 1:25 pm I would assume most of you know those who are building Access or Lifestyle pick bricks thru Boral. Those of you who are with Prestige pick their bricks from Austral. Why I don't know because we do like bricks from the Boral range but we aren't allowed to go thru them as we are Prestige. What the hell!!!! As far as I know with Austral, the Homestead collection is still there. So you will be ok with that and a few others if you stick with that range. Some of the discontinued bricks that I can remember and we wanted are: The Lawson, Canterbury, Cotham, Newport, and The Hawthorne brick will be replaced with the Hawksburn, but when we went to the Deer Park display centre they didn't have a sample of the Hawksburn which we found very disappointing because this could be the brick we may like and Wednesday is our colour selection. Those of you who are close to Tender I would go down or ring Austral Bricks first to see what bricks are available. Hopetoun Interiors may not know 100% what's discontinued. I wouldn't trust the girls there anyway. At least this way if your choice of bricks are discontinued you know that you will have to look at others.

I just called Austral bricks head office for you and the Hawthorne has been discontinued. Its replaced with the Hawksburn or the Burleigh???? Better you know now.
