I am no finance guru, but with your tax levels positive geared is not the answer.
Granted you get depreciation (on positive geared property), but why would you want to put more money in your account to be taxed more.

Just remember that if you have to go $50.00 under market value at least you have stop the flow of cash out of your pocket and a percentage of the drop can be claimed on your tax.
Also make sure you are using the ITWV form so you get your depreciation back weekly if on PAYG.

Putting it out to tender will be time consuming and the only builders that will come back to you will be nail baggers.

You can work out the fair price yourself by asking the builder who quoted you to brake it up into sections.
