If you're looking for an 'upmarket finish' as you said… I would always use a tiler… they will screed to flow
& tile a small laundry in no time at all… unless you are handy, bad tiling can also look quite ordinary…
a small cost I think in the scheme of things.good luck

hi Laurown… I normally will add what I call a 'vendors warranty' clause….
basically saying that…. the vendor warrants all electrical, plumbing, gas, pool
appliances, accessories, fixtures, fittings, motors, pumps, to be in good working
order prior to settlement.
I have had vendor fix a fan in an oven etc which I probably would not have found at my pre sett. inspection…
I have found that pools etc have generally been left in good condition as the vendor doesn't want to
jeopardise the successful settlement due to something silly being not quite working properly…
It's just a backstop really…. hope this helps???Regards

I would pick 15… as it looks like it has less trees to remove thus less expense
& is in a cul de sac but doesn't back onto rear of development to
safeguard against what may get developed behind …??please also consider type of construction… you may have to allow retaining walls underground including waterproofing (tanking) of walls…. pumps probably need to be included in case of flood due to driveway run off or very heavy rains etc…. if you wish for a concrete slab to floor of house then it is no longer on ground therefore requires a suspended slab which of course would cost more also… height restrictions will need to be adhered to & thus we have built some where total height of sub terranean area is underground… hope this helps… regards
Hi Tommi,
short answer…..no it shouldn't … but don't tell him exactly your budget as his job is to extract as much money from the purchaser (ie… you!!) as possible… good luck mate
