    After any help from any creditable builders.....

    We have signed a contract to build a modest 4 bedroom home over 4 months ago. The plans are in with council currently. We have just found out from the owner of the building company to say we were under quoted $43,000.
    How is this possible? It has had a few amendment that had gone through and passed by the assessors and all of a sudden they think we were under quoted!
    When we asked what the extra was for he could not give us a answer and said he's looking into it and will call us back. That was 4 days ago and have not heard anything and he will not answer his phone.
    If anyone can give advice on if the contract is worth anything or if it is a dodgy ploy to get more money out of us.
    Thanks.
