This release from Treasury indicates the $750K limit includes construction cost and land value.
I don't think this is fair at all, but alas what can we do?

That's a great point Sparkyf
Does this mean we need to get land valuation in order to apply for the grant? I suppose those who want to renovate would also have…

To me these are contradictory statements in the article.
"building a new home worth less than $750,000" implies construction value only is considered
"property must be $750,000 or less" implies construction plus…

Some articles state that the limit for new home builds of $750,000 is inclusive of land, however others don't state this and appear to imply construction cost only and not…

Hi MK
I can assist with your first question - under the 88B instrument applicable to land within New Breeze (for "Parkside" lots numbered 1-198 at least), you are not required…

Yes indeed this is much more consistent with my understanding. However you did use the word "natural" so I maintained a tinge of hope. Alas, common sense should have told…

Can I clarify that you mean "Supernatural" range?
For completeness, I note the following ranges on the Caesarstone website:
Standard
Deluxe
Supernatural
Supernatural Ultra
Can I confirm that all options under the "Supernatural" range was available…

I have also requested that brick is used instead of lightweight material on first floor.
Looking at the pricing in the "common upgrades list", upstairs brick instead of lightweight material is…

Thank you for the kind words, but despite having 3, I can’t actually control them (usually the other way around with cats as I am sure you know!)
Two of my…

There was a promotion running until end of Jan 2020 that gave customers $25K voucher (instead of the $5K provided in previous promos) to use at Wisdom Landscaping and Pools.
So…

So you are saying driveway with Wisdom will be $25K?
Is this for a colour-on-top concrete driveway of
35sqm?

Am I able to request this prior to tender presentation so I can have it in the tender cost and know it straigtaway on presentation day?

Hi all
I have put down my deposit to build the Ambassador 33 with Wisdom Homes.
I have 3 indoor-only cats and part of the reason for building is to be able…

Hi all
Total for me is $1,794.08
375sqm lot

No we haven't yet moved further with any builder. We will do so once we can settle on exactly what we are looking for in a plan.
Thanks for letting me…

We have looked at builders, but still going through plans and thinking about what we really want - which keeps changing, so it's hard to make a decision.
I think you…

Thank you! It was relieving indeed.
Here is my timeline if it will help you
6 Jun late afternoon CBA (I was using a mobile lender) requested…

I thankfully managed to settle yesterday, and the vendor waived penalty interest. So now up to finding a builder.
I hope the others are in a better place too

Hi all
I also haven't settled yet.
Despite me specifically asking my solicitor to state the reasons for our delay were due to the misinformation regarding the registration date and the fact…

Mine is 375sqm which is “large” relative to other lots in New Breeze.

Yes we are in the same boat. We were working off a late June/early July registration date advised by New Breeze in terms of arranging our finances.
We just got the…

Yes, the letter received by my solicitor from the vendor's solicitor expressly states 13 June as the settlement date.
It feels good to finally know my actual address rather than a…

Hi all
Update: I just got confirmation from my solicitor who has spoken to the vendor that indeed my lot in stage 3.1 has been registered.

Hi all
The sales office has sent me an email advising that my lot in stage 3.1 is registered.
This seems strange given I received a call from my solicitor 2 days…

Hey NZ89
Thanks for linking me the information for the builder you have gone with, I love how they are open about pricing to begin with.
I still haven't settled on a…

So even when zoomed in all the way, you would say it is outdated by one year? As I mentioned, I could tell that the zoomed out map was out…
