Their arguement, if I remember correctly, was that it covered costs incurred by building in an area a long distance from where their tradesmen usually are ie northwest.
Apart from the pre-contract headaches, we are ecstatic with our CSR, who has been handling all my question, changes, pricing queries. Plans went inot council this past week..YAY Have you found that they refuse to negotiate ? If we had known that from the outset, we would have saved a lot of time & frustration. Will be going o/seas in couple of days, so won't be able to follow the forum for a few weeks. ALSO, our computer died - time for a new one ! Am using my daughter's mac - UGH !! So, might catch up with you when I get back. PS We're neighbours - we're building in Como, the other side of the highway.

I looked thru your posts but couldnt see which EB design you has settled on. We like the cambridge 35sq ( at the moment).. We are building the Cambridge 34 Family with Boston corner facade. It's not my cup of tea design-wise, but we didn't have much choice as we had to find a narrow fitting floorplan because of our corner block. I've recently posted a picture of the display home on our blog : www.radds.com.au SORRY this link isn't working. Will have to figure htis out at some later stage. Good luck with your meeting nxt month, but be prepared for no negotiating. If you keep that in mind, the processwill go much more quickly.

Second level bricks and facade bricking was completed last week and the roof tiles were delivered yesterday. So far our experience with EB has been very smooth.
