House and Land Samples

@sash thanks for sharing all the information here. any Melbourne house and land package you recommend?

 

Not at the moment. Have not looked at it

 

Ballarat build almost complete....part 1....part 2 next....

 

Ballarat house ...part2....

 

It appears very good quality. For my last one the wardrobe doors could only close properly one way and the answer from the site supervisor was "This is how they do it nowadays" Not to talk about the missing caulking everywhere. You splashed some money on the outdoor area

 

Is that a tiled shower base over a metal tray base to maximise the waterproofing warranty ?

 

They still have to get the wardrobe mirrored doors in. Caulking touch ups still needed.

Outdoor areas not ..really fancy.

This was 294k turnkey and about 202sqm.

 

I believe this is how they do it..as it is hobless shower...they need to seal against the shower screen.

 

Another quality build by Sash Corp .....my Ballarat build is now at PCI....

 

Well done Sash.

Would you buy house with a bigger block for future subdivision&build?!

 

@sash - when do you typically negotiate / approach the builder? Upon entering the contract for the land, or waiting until it is titled to then have a firmer timeline?

 

Lately..I have approached the builder early.

For example...there is one I am waiting for titled in Mandurah. I paid the deposit in Nov ...and expect the land to title this month. I will also have contracts with no provisionals by mid this month. I will then sign the build contract subject to finance and settle on the land by May.

The hope is the builder will be onsite by July. Will also reduce the land holding costs even though I am not financing....OPM (oher peoples money).
