Deposit to Lock in Price

Travelled to North Lakes display and placed a deposit to lock in the price. This is when we added things to the quote that are not included in the base price, mostly personal choices but some things you have to have which are not included in the base price. These are: Site costs, which we know will be H+ slab(core sample already conducted) base price allowance is for S class. TIP/NOTE: H+ = Highly reactive clay and is at the highest end of site costs. We usually allow $10K, we weren't far off. Moved sliding door in main bedroom to alfresco wall (ensuring it will be a wooden slider to match theatre room slider for cohesive look to this area - this is an extra as aluminium is standard to the main bedroom). TIP/NOTE: Qld morning sun can be as hot as westerly afternoon sun, we know from our last home, I misplaced the position of a window in our bedroom on the east to overlook the pool - bad move for Sunday sleep ins! The sliding door will now be located facing North. Added a window in dining area and one in the butlers pantry to capture Northerly aspect. Added under bench kitchen sink. Added High gloss Createc to overhead cupboards in kitchen. Added 3 overhead and 3 under bench cupboards to the Laundry. Upgrade Front Façade to Harper with Render to front and face brick to remainder of the house. Colourbond roof. Ducted Air-conditioning. Floor tiles with extra allowance for high gloss; Carpets; Electrical upgrade allowance; driveway and concrete to alfresco.  Next step Plantation Quote will go to the Bank for valuation.
