Ok please correct me if I'm wrong but this is my understanding:
Property purchased has dwelling on it currently.
We're doing a knock down rebuild:
1) Employ services of architect to design a house
2) Get DA approval (note already one in place current development application done by previous owners for second story addition)
3) Get quotes from builders to build house (I understand builders cannot quote an exact figure)
4) Build the house.
Did I miss anything?
Thing we're concerned about is employing the builders services to build, we were looking at a custom home by one of the big firms (Rawson, Masterton, Metricon etc)
Just also looking for pros and cons of using big firms to independent builders.
Advice, opinions happily taken on board.
Thanks so much in advance.
