Hi Reneeh,
Unfortunately, we decided to drop the plan to build with Henley and went with another builder/floorplan.
We found this listing a while ago for a house that was put on…

Hi All,
We’re excited to build our own place and have just signed off with Henley for the Yorke 21. They have a really great promotion ongoing right now which allowed…

Thanks for sharing that. I've read it before after coming across it as per the recommendation of my friend Google. We've taken into account extra costs and all.

Thanks! 🙂

Hi,

Thanks for clarifying that. I talked to a few sales agents and they've already presented a few good options. From the looks of it, going with a land and house…

Hi All,
We're looking into options to finance a House & Land package. We've been discussing options with different builders and overall it's been very positive so far, but one thing…
