      Building

      Hi,

      Just wondered if anyone has built from scratch (i.e without one of the house and land companies). We are seriously thinking about this option and would like a reality check! What was the cost like? How long did it take? Possible pitfalls?

      Any relevant info gratefully received.

      my cousin and her husband built their own house out in kangarilla. Its stunning very unusual design, i take it what u mean is they did plans themselves, and got a builder in rather than buying off plan? I wont be speaking to her til next week as shes away at moment but will ask for you if you like i know they are still finishing bits off but moved in as soon as it was livable.
