    Cheers Blacky,

    Still working through the numbers with the accountant & builder but we sold them for
    495k, 475k & 510k. (probably could have got more on Unit 2 looking back, sold that before market)
    After holding costs and build costs we are set to make around 14-15%

    Work such as landscaping and alarms we got our own hands dirty, so saved some costs.

    We could have saved heaps more but in the interest of delivering a good product we chose not to.
    for example, paving, tap-ware, lighting, choice of plants...... the list goes on.

    Yes, used the margin scheme

    Very little room for error in this market

    Looks like interest rates may drop in Feb? If so I think we may see a spike, this may attract more buyers. This product is targeting FHB and downsizers
