Hi Firsttime,
How are you? Did Carlisle increase their prices again? We have locked in a good base price and promo with them but the aegean really suits us best.
We increased…

Hi firsttimehommies!
How's it going? Have you put a deposit with Mainvue yet? They have increased their prices at the start of the month. Or still undecided? ?

Hi Aegean 430,
Thank you. Honestly. We were sold with his and hers vanity haha. Our land won't be titled til april next year, so looking at build start by june.

Hi all ?
I think it's right about time to start our own build thread. We have been lurking around homeone for quite some time now and have really learned…

A fireplace sounds nice. That's good that they were able to bring the price down and honoured the quotes they gave on your browsing. They are good like that.

Woohoo. Well done. Although I am biased
We are going there tomorrow to put a deposit as well. Just got an email from our sales consultant…

This is what we're thinking of doing. My husband drafted it up and we sent it to mainvue for approval and costing ? we made the rooms heaps bigger and…

Yup, agree. Henley should call your house Spicegirl Q1. Im glad henley allows all these changes. Unlike Carlisle and Pd. Even the facade you can't do any tweak to make…

Hi firsttimehommies,
Apparently it is just an allowance that they have to put in our quote so we won't be shocked during contract about this. But with the promotion they…

Hi All,
We have just received our quote for the Aegean 230 and overall very happy with it.
Except, we are a bit shocked with them charging us $5600 to meet 6…

We are 75% aegian and 25% Sorrento.
Just need to properly sit down and talk with mainvue to clarify our questions.
Let us know if you have decided which one.…

Actually, we gave Carlisle a 1k deposit but not once did our sales consultant asked or mentioned anything about writing a review.
And also, spoke with our cleaner today and…

Yup. We have been doing a lot of research as its our 2nd time building, we want to get everything right this time. We didn't get an independent inspector the…

Yeah, this time we will be getting an independent inspector.
We have an irregular block and the aegean 230 fits well, gives us a decent back and side yard.
I…

hahahaha guess we have the same taste!
we have already put a deposit with carlisle for the sorrento, which unfortunately is non refundable, but then we drove past mainvue the other…

Hi firsttimehommies,
We are also thinking of building the Aegean 230.
