Cause they always have some sort of promo running during the last 2 years that I've been paying attention to Metricon here in QLD. You're probably the first that didn't get any incentive I've seen on these forums. Re: KDR Metricon Liberty - Hampshire 45 QLD 1202May 23, 2017 1:53 pm dulie That's pretty unlucky.

So everything we payed for basically. We upgraded nearly everything. The bring it out here and there. You just have to get it in the right time. viewtopic.php?t=86597 Re: KDR Metricon Liberty - Hampshire 45 QLD 1203May 23, 2017 5:55 pm there are two packs 1) 4999K includes 15,000 studio M spend voucher, category one carpet and 300x300 ceramic tiles and fujitsu aircon for standard home only. if you make changes you pay extra. I iam buying this. but we need to upgrade to pocelin tiles and the carpet, etc. 2) 40k, you get 10% discount on this so roughly 36k. and you get all the other upgrades stone bench top, remote control garage door, mizu soothe tapware, upgraded toilets and bath,laundry tub etc. this is the one I was not sure of. what is the cost to upgrade to stone kitchen/bath bench top and remote garage door? Re: KDR Metricon Liberty - Hampshire 45 QLD 1204May 23, 2017 7:50 pm It really depends if you're going to use every single thing in the pack. If so, it's worth doing. When we were going through prelim contract, they had the 'Diamond Selections' pack for Signature homes. Price depended on size of home etc. Our pack was $73k, however because we were doing timber flooring (not tiles), took out a bunch of their options and no credits back, it ended up working out $20k cheaper to just upgrade items individually and not use the Diamond Selections value pack. Re: KDR Metricon Liberty - Hampshire 45 QLD 1206May 24, 2017 10:26 am Hi Dulie, just wanted to ask whether your intercom and security cam system is working ok? Would you recommend it?

Dulie how much did you pay for the upgraded garage in total? We just got our first tender today. M demands $5530.5+$1050 council relaxation for our 700mm garage extension XDXDXD. looks like you have to get the fence done on your side of property. Neighbor got no interests?

Neighbor got no interests? Thanks C. That price you got is actually quite good, but then again it's just done by m2. My extension cost me $17k plus $2k for roof line changed cause I wanted the 3rd spot to sit back, plus $2k for front and rear doors. So total of $21k. Then of course $1500 council relaxation. And yup, my neighbors are super tight and very petty. Best not to bother them. Re: KDR Metricon Liberty - Hampshire 45 QLD 1217May 26, 2017 9:06 pm dulie Mt.view Great progress!

The first tender we got is $525k without any M selections for a 38 SQ house. This kinda surprised me as I was expecting somewhere around 470k+upgrades in M studio. The fact that we want another 4sq extension start to give me anxiety... D, how did you go on the site cost? We magically ended up with $27k on site cost for a fairly flat land with M grade soil. Re: KDR Metricon Liberty - Hampshire 45 QLD 1218May 26, 2017 9:21 pm Mt.View To be honest it's very hard to build a double storey house for under $650k with any quality. Re: KDR Metricon Liberty - Hampshire 45 QLD 1219May 26, 2017 9:29 pm Renman Mt.View To be honest it's very hard to build a double storey house for under $650k with any quality. Hahaha its not much of help by scaring me even further. But you are right, better set the expectation right. Was doing our budgeting based on few members` cost which were all around $550k in the end. Perhaps I have an expensive taste that i dont know of... I`m following your build as well. Do you mind sharing your rough cost just so i can feel worse XD Re: KDR Metricon Liberty - Hampshire 45 QLD 1220May 26, 2017 9:45 pm I am probably the worst person to use as an example lol. I was talking to another member on here and found that the only I didn't upgrade was the laundry sink. My build it around the $850k mark. We were lucky in that our old house was so small (86 square metres) compared to the new house, they were able to take enough readings around the old backyard house before… 8 37160 The biggest challenge will be if you take out a loan and then run out of money - you'll have an incomplete security and lenders do not like this so you can get stuck.… 2 19114 Hi, I am looking into doing a KDR in Melbourne and am contemplating using Kialla Homes. I am looking for feedback on them from others who have built with them. 0 13450 |
