We actually got approved through Poter Davis.. I had them adjust the plan, but I won’t a few more changes, which they won’t do, hence I chose a custom.. now…

Aston should be good too... cause we only have 26m depth.. found it difficult with plans

Hi DVii.. have you decided on a builder yet.. I think we are going custom..

I think the NBN should be available to Doreen.. Have you decided on a builder Selva?

Hi Dvii, no we are still deciding which Builder.. So many want you to pay a deposit, but not paying until sure and happy with plans

5 years5 yearsVenusmarzVenusmarz posted:
Plenty Valley Views -Doreen,Vic

Yes, who did you see at Aston? I saw Robert Briffa..
Also, you need to ask them what the fall is over the building site... not over the whole block...as this…

No way, Aston we’re willing to fix costs on mine at $19,500.. and you block is flatter...still deciding on a builder

5 years5 yearsVenusmarzVenusmarz posted:
Plenty Valley Views -Doreen,Vic

That sounds great.. Which builder did you end up going with?

5 years5 yearsVenusmarzVenusmarz posted:
Plenty Valley Views -Doreen,Vic

Yes, still unsure though.. Really hard to imagine when you don't see the house built

Bentley came back and said that they would not build a single storey on our block.. too many retaining walls would look ugly. Boutique said the same and so did…

Hi Selva
Just wondering if you have been given any quotes on site costs yet..Custom builder costs seems very expensive and are you looking at retaining walls too?
