    Please compare these 2 - display home quality vs quality given to me

    You need to negotiate hard with your builder, and now! First I'd speak with your solicitor to get some sound legal advice as it sounds like breach of contract if they've used the wrong bricks. It will just let your builder know that you've got some options and can make his life difficult...

    Mona Vale Townhouse Development - Update

    Michael - You'll also get a higher premium come sale time by holding off rather than building and renting. 'Brand new' will sell better than '1-2 years old'. Sit tight until you're comfortable to give the green light. Fin.

    advertising campaign for selling

    Agree with LA.Aussie. Ads in local papers are a waste of money, and another money-making angle for the agents (my cousin in Melbourne is an agent). I'd go with a few small adds in The Domain and the net.

    Asbestos roof on garage

    If its a health concern of yours, do your sums for removal and factor it in to get some peace of mind. Angelo's cost estimate of about $20/sqm removal is the upper limit to allow for and putting up a few sheets of clourbond will be a cinch. Bargain with the agent and tell them the fibro is...

    Open plan vrs Hallway

    The market trend these days generally favours open plan. It'll make the place look a lot bigger and should add more value to the property (provided the walls are not load bearing which may bring significant cost). Fin.
