Our build is now complete and we have been in for a few months, and we haven't regretted for a second building with Elderton.

As Blakey said, the paperwork was…

We had the builders put the leftover bricks to the side of the house so we could pick them up one weekend (with the same idea, of creating a mailbox…

Excavation started today!! After having to ring around and get the estate to move the machinery and pipes off our block....!
THE RISE - moving in this Friday? You can be…

Hello!! You must be so excited you're almost in!
We went this morning. I think it's the council digging up some pipes on the corner (storm water/sewer?)...but they have left all…

No I don't think there is, shall have another look!
We don't hear much unless we ring or email - which we'll do again tomorrow! Technically the pegs went in 3…

Yep, 3rd Aug would be 20 working days (so 4 weeks) from the date we signed & returned everything.

Did your 20 day count start from peg out, or when the builder receives all signed final consolidated documents?
Ours started from the day they received our signed docs. So…

Hi All,
New to the building process, and currently building with Elderton Homes. As this is our first (and probably last!) home build, I am unsure how long is too long…

We are thinking of going with Austral Symmetry (??) Portland. If ANYONE has pics of these bricks, I would love to see!

You would be pushing it fine to get a 500sqm block + 4br house for less than $620k in the Hills area. We aimed for that budget (on a 450sqm…
