Shogi93,
I believe Champion has the best price so far. Toskana 283 was cheaper than Toskana 270 when I was buying and it had much better inclusions. For some reason they…

Hi shogi93,
I wasn't following forum for weeks and I just saw your question, luckily Tan has already answered it. have standard Cremorne 25 with an alfresco as an addition…

Hi All,
I was very silent for a while as a result of a very long holiday period and current work load.
As per current discussion, if you would like to learn…

Thanks for all nice messages. I saw the slab over the weekend and it looked nice. There won't be any work this week but frame will start next week.

Hi All,
I couldn't write for a while as a result of intense work and personal stuff but I read everything. Welcome new neighbours. It's great too see most of you…

I have very basic upgrades in this price. I didn't upgrade too much. Champion does same. Houses for 11 m facades are more expensive. Toskana 243 with that aspen facade…

My cost per square meter comes to $1260 excluding landscaping and fencing. Smaller houses cost more. At EBH there is a base price for double storey houses and for ever…

Minion, i am building with EBH and my bank is bankwest.I didn't have any problem with progress claims. Bankwest never objected to progress claim schedule.

Tyrells is not PCA, PCA is someone who can give DA, CC, OC etc on behalf of council. They are sometimes called as private certifiers. EBH doesn't use a PCA,…

Bunya2012, myself and transformation was almost choosing champion homes as our builder. Your slow progress with brickwork and some comments from another customer are the reason we chose.different builders. Champion…

Congrats Alok. I was checking your blog very often to see some progress. It will be great to see some photos of your slab.

As you may remember, I was asking when should I pay my contributions for the construction loan and I learned that I need to pay it in advance. My question…

Liquidsnake, sorry to hear that you still don't have a slab. My home is on trevor housley ave and Champion is building most of the houses around my lot. They…

I assume Champion works a bit tactical here. They just do the works with the biggest chunk of progress claim quickly to help their cash flow and than slow down…

I learned that i got council approval yesterday. Thanks Transformation for passing this information to me. You are a great neighbour. How long did it take for you to see…

EBH gave us $5800 for 126 m2 carpet. I even didn't think about it. Sounded like a good deal.

How much is BAS charging for the fence? Is there a price per meter?

Philamon, it looks like you get.your house.in 4 months, that's a great speed. I hope I can see a similar speed with my house.

Lyrics, dont spend time with broker for valuation, i tried same but didnt help. Go to another bank and ask for valuation. I did it with bankwest and got full…

Transformation, i believe it's better to do solar panels with Wisdom, if they charge over market rate you can always object to this. If you want to make sure, find…

Jewel18, ask about skirtings to your CSO, you won't be the first person does this post handover. She will explain you what you will need to do and send a…

I just received 2 invoices from Blacktown city council. It looks like these are for council rates. First one is around $230 per quarter and second one is $48 per…

Hi Bunya 2012, I saw your house on Sunday..Looks beautiful. Timber cladding and garage door.is.great but why entry.door is white?

Liquidsnake, sorry to hear but why your start took that long? I see that CH is most active builder in stage 4.Their fences are everywhere and when i was…

Hi Guys, I just realised that Metricon allows people to use their name in this forum now. They have a representative in the forum who actively answers questions. No need…

My comment was only for the path. I agree with you on all other issues.
For the bank loan. We first went with a broker but than changed our mind and…

I don't see a big deal here. All builders do similar things. For instance Eden Brae doesn't give overhead cupboards that Champion and others give. Or you need to pay…

You can actually feel sorry for all of us. Stage 2 was more expensive than stage 1, stage 3 was more expensive than stage 2 and stage 4 and 5…

Should I include all variations (9 currently). I gave 2 quotes with $25K value to the bank for valuation. Now valuation is $25K more than my land + house contract.…

Hi All, my council approval is progressing. Council has already sent my plans to my neighbours. Even I learned that Transformation already received my plans.
I need your help with the…
